Hark and Hark

I am not one who usually writes reviews, most times it's the negative experience that prompts a review but in this case, a positive review it's not only necessary but also can help anyone that is searching for an attorney for themselves or for their family members avoid disasterous outcomes out their minds at ease. I myself, my spouse, my son, my brother, and my father have been using Richard's services since 2013. Every time we have had a case, the results were better than we thought possible. Richard not only succeeds in getting the immediate results that you could only hope for, but strives to ensure the long term affects of the case are as minimal as can be. Things you won't get with Richard from Hark and Hark that every law firm I have used in the past does... You won't have a consultation with Richard and show up to your court date and be surprised to see a junior lawyer from the firm, who you have never spoken to representing you, trust me it happens very often with other supposedly top gun law firms. You won't play the typical attorney phone tag. Richard is ALWAYS available and actually provides you with his personal cell and replies to texts and answers your calls personally, in most situations, he is calling or texting you information and waiting on you to get back to him...this is a rarity in this field, trust me. You won't be judged by Richard. I tend to make the occasional mistake alot more often than most and Richard never hesitates to jump right in with the best advice you can pay for. Things you will get... The best defense you can find. A huge difference is Richard not only cares about winning (he does like to win lol), but all jokes aside, he cares about you, how this will affect your family, your reputation, your future. You will get a professional attorney in court that can speak to you in layman's terms so you understand what is happening every step. Ask Richard for my contact info if your still unsure and I can go into detail about all he has done for me and my family. Like I stated previously 12 plus years of his service so far, from serious to minor infractions, I would not trust the outcomes for me or my closest loved ones to anyone else. Richard has traveled to multiple counties for me, several hours from his home base with great results. Read the other reviews they speak for themselves.

**Outstanding Expertise in Medical Licensing** I cannot express enough accolades to my licensing attorney, Richard Hark Esquire. After facing an unjust federal case that jeopardized my Pennsylvania medical license, I needed skilled representation to help me navigate the reinstatement process, appeals, and administrative law hearing. From our very first consultation, it was clear that Richard was the right choice. Richard is a highly skilled attorney, undoubtedly among the best in his field. His approach is meticulous and strategic, demonstrating extraordinary communication skills and unwavering determination. Beyond his legal expertise, what sets him apart is his commitment to fairness and justice. Richard was always available to answer my questions, no matter how complex or minor, with clarity and patience, ensuring I fully understood every aspect of the process. I strongly recommend Richard to others facing challenging licensing or legal issues. He is exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, supportive, and intensely passionate about what he does. He is truly outstanding! Richard is an incredible asset to the legal system and his clients. On a scale of one to five, Richard is a huge 10+. Thanks to his efforts and advocacy, I am back on track and will soon be able to resume my medical profession and care for those in need. A wholehearted thanks to Richard Hark for his extraordinary work. -SL

I appreciated the wise advice and counsel that I received from Richard Q. Hark. It was priceless considering the many years of dealing with the medical board myself and getting nowhere. With Mr. Hark's assistance I was able to avoid a hearing and finally get my medical license reactivated after over 20 years of delay. I highly recommend him to any health care professional that needs assistance dealing with any of the licensing boards.

In November 2024 I had a DUI. I reported that to the nursing board, almost signed the paperwork to start the PHMP program, but my DUI attorney told me to speak to Richard and fight it. When I spoke to Richard he asked me a series of questions and that was when I decided to fight to keep my nursing license through the legal process rather than entering the PHMP program. He was available days, nights and weekends to answer any questions that I had. He walked me through what I would encounter in the months ahead. He guided me every step of the way and I am very grateful for that. I didn't want to lose my nursing license and he told me I wouldn't and I didn't. PHMP would have taken a minimum of 3 years with individual counseling, group counseling, alcoholics, anonymous, and random drug testing. So let me say thank you. Richard and I recommend you very highly!!!

I had a DUI in 2020 and didn't hear of Richard Hark until I was already pretty much forced into signing a contract with the PNAP program (now NHP). I finished out my 3 year program but when it was time to be released, the program failed to release me and informed me that I had another year and a half to go due to a positive test that was unfounded by an evaluation and a MD review. I was devastated as I never knowingly used any illicit substance after signing the contract and I didn't know where to turn. A friend of mine recommended Richard Hark so I called him up. This was the best decision I ever made. Richard and his assistant, Jessica, are very knowledgeable and attentive. After speaking with Richard my fears were laid to rest. I worked with Richard and Jessica to gather all necessary paperwork and they were very patient with me. Richard had me set up an evaluation with an approved MD and when the report was done it was sent to the board along with a petition to terminate the contract since the contract date ended 4 months prior. I was very surprised, after a day or so I received an order to reinstate my license effective immediately. I was feeling trapped, hopeless and unsure if they were ever gonna let me out and the program literally took me broke. I will always be grateful to Richard and his staff. I found out the hard way that you can not fight these people without legal help and I would 1000% recommend Hark & Hark to anyone who gets caught up in this trap. I am free. Finally after 3.5 years of testing, classes and financial struggles, I will be able to continue with my life with the help of this firm.
