Excellent Experience

I cannot say enough good things about Tim. He is a fantastic attorney and treated my mothers case as if it were his own. He always got back to me without delay and explained everything in a way that was understandable to us . He went that extra mile for my mother which in the end, he exceeded all of... our expectations. This was our first experience with a lawyer and I have to say Tim made it the best experience anyone could of asked for. I would highly recommend Tim to anyone .

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.
