About Jared Preston
Jared Preston Hirt is a graduate of Albany Law School who built a steady legal career in New York. He moved from classroom study to courtroom routine and office practice. The early training at Albany Law School left him comfortable with legal writing and courtroom procedure. He draws on that foundation in daily work.
He is admitted to practice in New York and has practiced in the state for years. His work has taken him through firm environments and client meetings. He learned to handle deadlines, motion practice and client counseling at close range. Colleagues describe him as methodical; he favors clear analysis and careful preparation over flash.
Over time Hirt developed practical litigation skills. He has experience drafting pleadings, preparing discovery and arguing hearings. That work brought him into contact with judges, court clerks and opposing counsel across New York. He approaches cases with an attention to process, respecting both procedural detail and the strategic decisions that shape outcomes.
At Evans Fox LLP he works alongside other attorneys who handle a range of matters for local and regional clients. His role at the firm centers on representing clients in state matters and coordinating filings and appearances in New York courts. He balances casework with client communication, aiming to keep clients informed on posture and timing without overpromising results.
Outside of the courtroom, Hirt’s background includes drafting motions and legal memoranda that have supported trial and hearing work. He spends time researching unsettled questions of state law and preparing arguments tailored to the jurisdiction where a case will be heard. That practical research underpins the courtroom presentations he makes on behalf of clients.
Collegiality matters to him. He maintains working relationships with colleagues and court staff and relies on those connections when scheduling, negotiating and resolving procedural matters. In firm meetings he is known for clear, practical contributions that focus on next steps rather than theoretical digressions.
He currently practices at Evans Fox LLP, representing clients in matters governed by New York law.
