At HCK, all of us take our ethical responsibilities very seriously.  The reason that you will not see references to client testimonials,  awards, or related topics on this site is that the NJ Supreme Court and the Committee on Attorney Advertising have established very strict boundaries around what is permissible. We do not want to risk making a mistake about what is not permissible, and is therefore unethical to share- so we have chosen to omit those topics from our advertising.  If you have questions about our attorneys’ experience and credentials, please ask them directly.
