Wonderful, family focused lawyer!

Tim is always willing to go above and beyond to make sure we as clients are taken care of. He is very family focused, listens and attempts to do what is best for his clients. Highly recommended to anyone in Northern Illinois!

Tim Mahoney is the best

I recommend Tim Mahoney and his staff. He is very professional and also is a down to earth person who cares about you and is very easy to talk to and he will help you any way he can. I can call him still after he helped my family with our case with any situation and ask him anything and he will guide... me in the right direction! The best attorney I have had!

Tim Mahoney - Trustworthy, Prepared, Passionate & Committed to his Clients

Hiring Tim Mahoney was the best decision our family made. Tim and his entire team were responsive to our questions and needs every step of the process. Tim kept us informed and had impeccable follow through in preparing for our case. Tim established trust with our family and advocated for our loss.... We were not just a client for Tim. We were a family, a family who needed the best, hired the best and would recommend Tim and his entire team to anyone or any family in need.

He did what he promised.

At the end of the day Tim did what he said he would, he won my case after 2.5 years of the waiting game and personal issues - he did what he promised he would do. Legal team is great, Tim was always available to talk everything out and let me in on everything. Trusted relationship. Yes there were bum...ps on the other end that had me frustrated, Tim worked it all out and came through like he promised!

Mr. Mahoney's help with my dog bite case.

Mr. Mahoney took on my case with knowing it was going to be hard to prove that the damages were true. The papers I had from the hospital failed to write down all the sickness that had occurred . Mr Mahoney sent endless hours on his own looking up all my meds and side effects that were caused from mi...xing these meds together. He proved this on his own time and no sleep. My own family would not have done this for me. But Tim did. He called me on a regular basis to keep me informed on Everything that was going on. I never felt a worry that he was not going to help me 100%. If I Ever need a lawyer for any reason...I hope he will be there again. Wonderful man.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
