Posted by Lou | September 09, 2010 | DUI & DWI

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. There were times when I was worried, confused and asked the same questions over and over again. Tim would respond to my... phone calls in a timely manner and had the patience of a saint. He always put my feelings first. Throughout the 2 years of my DWI case, Tim became more than just a lawyer, he was a friend. He is very knowledgable of the DWI laws in the state of NH. Tim's professionalism, knowledge and demeanor in the courtroom is very impressive. I would highly recommend Tim Harrington.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"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."

Criminal defense lawyer | Sep 03

Relationship: Co-worker

"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."
