ABOUT THE FIRM

“The Hartley Law Firm is the culmination of years of hard work and dedication to one simple idea: providing the best possible representation to each and every client that comes through my door. After countless cases, this idea still acts as my guiding light.

Our justice system was built to provide justice to everyone, equally. Our history has shown time and time again that that is not always the case. I have personally witnessed injustice unfold right before me, and unfortunately, there wasn’t always something I could do about it. But these instances drove me closer and closer to the founding of The Hartley Law Firm. It was these experiences that led me to believe that I could, and should, start a criminal defense law firm founded on the ideals of integrity, diligence, excellence, and justice. This is what I promise to provide you should you choose to allow us the honor and the privilege of representing you.”
