I help people and businesses resolve disputes without going through the costly, lengthy and difficult process of litigation.

I am a collaborative mediator, which means that I assist people in getting to the heart of the dispute and creating alternatives for resolving the issues at hand. I am also a collaborative practioner, and utilize the team approach to resolving family, business, and estate conflicts. I encourage you to go to my website to learn more about collaborative. Collaborative keeps YOU in control of the dispute resolution process. It can be faster and less costly than going to court. 

I offer a one hour process meeting to review with you the different choices you have in resolving a dispute, which are: 1) resolving it between yourselves; 2) resolving it using mediation; 3) resolving it collaboratively; 4) hiring litigation counsel to negotiate a settlement; and 5) litigation. I do not practice litigation here in Schuylkill County because I am employed by the Court, but I am extremely knowledgeable about it. 

I also assist people in representing themselves during a divorce. I offer estate planning, estate administration services.  I also offer deed, will and power of attorney preparation. 

Please contact me for an appointment. I will be happy to speak with you about your situation and set up a process meeting. I offer evening and weekend office hours. I am also available to meet during weekdays at the Schuylkill County Courthouse. 

I am active in the Boy Scouts of America, Troop 621 Orwigsburg, and St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Orwigsburg.

Excellent Collaborative Attorney!
My husband and I met with Attorney Timpany to discuss mediation for a family situation. She provided specific and objective advice while allowing us time to share our story and ask questions. At all times she was patient, compassionate, and supportive. Ultimately, she suggested that our issue might be addressed best by working with a therapist specializing in familial communication and provided a referral to a professional in our area. We have worked with Attorney Timpany in the past and will do so in the future. She possesses the knowledge, experience, profesionalism, and collaborative skills neded to deal effectively with any/all legal issues.

Client
My husband wanted a friendly divorce and we agreed on things so we thought it would be okay to go to a lawyer through his work. With that it turned out that lawyer represented only one and a divorce paper were drawn up. When I was given what was drawn up - Red flags popped up in my head. I was told about Mary Timpany- so I went to her for Legal Advice. Turned out I was right and then I acquired her for my attorney. She opened my yes to more than I realized what was going on. Her support was excellent and has changed my life and confidence. She didn't just be my attorney but one of my rock for the emotions of going through a divorce.
