Excellent Lawyer for Representation in DUI Case
Tim was an excellent lawyer, who did an outstanding job representing me in my DUI case. Though I believed I was going to lose my license for a while and be required to pay a ton of fines, Tim found a way to convince the judge to find me not guilty. Throughout the entire process, which was extremely...

Highly skilled, knowledgable lawyer
Tim did a great job representing me. He treated me with respect and made my family and myself feel comfortable. He was always up front and honest whether it was good news or bad.

Terrible
I called them on 6/20/25 via a google search as well as an email to this law group. They NEVER FOLLOWED UP ON MY URGENT REQUEST TO HIRE A DUI ATTORNEY FOR MY FIRST OFFENSE. I GAVE THEM A ONE STAR AS A CLIEBT IS WAITING TO WORK WITH THESE PROFESSIONAL LAWYERS BUT NO REPLIED BACK TO PHONE MESSAGE OR ...
"Tim Harrington is an outstanding trial lawyer. Over the 20+ years I have known Tim, I have worked with him and opposed him. He is tough, dynamic, and smart."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"When Tim worked as a prosecutor for the Concord City Attorney and the Rockingham County Attorney he was well respected by the Defense Bar for his fairness, intelligence and advocacy. He brought that valuable prior experience to private practice whehre he built a thriving DUI/Criminal Defense practice in New Hampshire and Maine. I highly recommend Tim for any criminal defense matter based on his courtroom skills, ethics and experience."
"As a former prosecutor and long time trial attorney, Tim brings a range of skills to bear in his criminal defense practice. It is critically important in criminal defense work to know your adversary and know your court room. Tim has a true knack for building relationships in the New Hampshire, Maine and Massachusetts court rooms where he regularly appears. Maybe more importantly, he understands how to simultaneously prepare a case for trial and avoid trial by relying on aggressive courtroom work and motion practice to create generous opportunities to resolve a case. Where negotiations fail, he is truly able to put his best foot forward on behalf of a client in court and during trial. Juries love him and judges respect him. Not to be lost in all of this, Tim is easy to work with and fun to be around. Simply stated, it is easy to recommend him to anyone seeking representation in a difficult criminal or DWI case."
