Dr. T

Amazing Lawyer! Very quick to respond and cares about clients, honest and through looking through all the paperwork and such. Would recommend to anyone in search of a lawyer to help your business! He is very straightforward and competent, he does not keep things from you and even before taking your c...ase will tell you if or if not he believes that you have a chance to win. If the other side has a strong case he doesn't hold that information back and tries his very hardest to win a case for businesses. If I ever get sued again Mr.Hartwick is the only Lawyer I trust in getting the job done!

Mr. Hartwick helped me win and fight of a wrongful suit against my business. He was always Caring, easy to understand, and followed through promptly through the entire process. I would use him again and recommend him to all my colleagues.

Wonderful experience

Mr. Hartwick was an excellent attorney. He was extremely professional and on top of all deadlines with my case. I was able to get my case settled quickly with him. I highly recommend Mr. Hartwick for legal services.

A complete waste of time and as we know time is money

He had the paper work to review the case come up with a strategy ,he did not bother to look at the paper work, he had no plan after a two week wait, he took the retainer and sat on it no action taken, his communications are lacking , he then tried to brush me off with the fact he was drafting a lett...er, when I pointed out this was of no use to the situation he dropped the case , he could have done this a month earlier ,thus not giving the opposition a month of advantage .and giving me time to set up a case with another attorney that was ready to take the case.
