Richard L. Hartley

I talked to Mr. Hartley about two weeks ago about a protection order that I had been severed. It was what I thought was short notice. He took me in for a consult and told me what could happen, some things that I didn't want to hear. But he laid it all out to me and he would represent me if I choos...e to have him. He was right up front on everything nothing hiding. What he would charge if i hired him. and what it would cost if it went to a trial. Well I hired Mr. Hartley the smartest thing I could have done. Well when we went to court he talked to the other party and got the protection order dismissed. I'm very happy for both sides. Mr. Hartley if I ever need someone to represent me again it would you hands down. Great Attorney and I thank you from the bottom of my heart Sir.

Mr. Hartley did an excellent job from start to finish while guiding me through the Judicial process of being charged with a Criminal OUI. He provided a clear and concise outline of the situation as a whole, and possible next steps. He effectively communicated different options and what the implic...ations/outcomes of those options could be. He inspired confidence through his knowledge and actions which instilled trust in my family and I. During the trial itself, he exuded confidence and seemed to be in control of the court room while illustrating his points to the Jurors. I would highly recommend consulting with Mr. Hartley if you have been charged with an OUI.

Mr Hartley gives it to you straight. He doesn’t get your hopes up with false promises . He knows the law well . I was facing a license suspension and a loss of my business. His knowledge of how the law works has afforded me a second chance . It may not sound like a license suspension would be that ...devastating but when your livelihood depends on that license a second chance is the greatest gift ever . I’m very grateful for Mr Hartley expertise

I am very pleased with Mr. Hartley's service. As a non-resident of Maine and someone who never had a run-in with the law before, I was completely lost when I needed help after a theft incident. I contacted Hartley Law after a bit of research, and he walked me through the legal process over the pho...ne and answered all my questions. I felt like I would be in good hands so I decided to hire his services. From the start he made himself available, was prompt with his communications, and answered all my questions (as did his assistant). All the while he handled all communications with the legal/court system and I did not need to return to Maine. While the uncertainty of my case outcome loomed over me, I never once felt uncertainty in Mr. Hartley. I believed he would help me achieve the best resolution possible. And in the end that's what he did - He was able to help resolve my case without any "permanent damage" and I am beyond grateful for that. While others may charge a lower price, I don't think you can put a price on preventing a criminal record, and Mr. Hartley is a great chance at doing just that. I would highly recommend his services!

As a non-resident of Maine in need of defense, I was unsure who to call for help. After reading many reviews, I chose Mr. Hartley. What I can tell you is that his work is top notch; he is honest, professional, and truly put 100% into my case. He took my calls on his cell phone after hours, and he ...answered and explained any questions I had at anytime. Being from out of state and unfamiliar with the legal system, Mr. Hartley is an asset I could not have been successful without. Billing was exactly what he quoted with no surprises, even after I thought he went above and beyond his quoted level of services. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal services.
