NEIL BHARTIA, ESQ
Neil Bhartia isn’t your typical, stuffy attorney that you see on TV. While some have their sights exclusively on money and treat their clients like a number, Neil takes a personal interest in every single client he has. As an empath, Neil understands that people that seek legal help are typically in an involuntary, and stressful situation, and he goes out of his way to diffuse the stress and educate clients on each every detail of the legal process.
Neil grew up in a small town in Canada and has worked throughout a variety of industries, including education, international trade, high-tech, and defense. His deep knowledge outside of law translates into a special ability to analyze, foresee, and problem solve, thereby maximizing results for his clients. Also known as “Mr. International”, Neil speaks Spanish and French fluently so don’t hesitate to reach out to him even if English isn’t your native tongue.
