Thorough, knowledgeable, clear, and honest

Even though in the end he decided (and recommended) that retaining his services were not in my best interest, he invested a lot of time in me any my fairly complex issues. First we had an initial consultation, then he did a lot of follow up research and initiated a follow-on meeting to walk me throu...gh his findings and determinations. He explained the situation in good, understandable detail, and helped craft me a path forward, even though this resulted in no revenue for him.

Great lawyer

I had the privilege of working with Mr. Hartman at the United States Trustee's Office. Mr. Hartman is incredibly intelligent and was able to see the big picture before many others. His financial background enables him to craft unique and effective solutions in resolving complicated problems. He wi...ll be an asset to any client.

Great lawyer

Mr. Hartman handled a complex partnership dispute on behalf of my family. It involved negotiating a satisfaction of partnership interests and drafting settlement agreements among a corporation, a partnership, and individuals. Mr. Hartman excelled at explaining complicated concepts in a straightforw...ard manner, was immediately responsive, and extremely knowledgeable. I felt he genuinely cared about helping my family. We were very pleased with the results and with Mr. Hartman's skills.
