Every lawyer is faced with unknown circumstances that truly make up a case or non case. My case seemed clear cut to me, a "no-brainer" as some people might describe it. It was my case and these things that happened to me were real and damaging. When I first met Mr. Kolman he was very attentive to my ...plea for help and listened to all I had to say and I had a lot to say. My former employer had deliberately set me up to fail at my new job by not providing the proper training involved with a new promotion I had received. The position had clear objectives related to proper training and performance reviews etc.., that I had signed and agreed to. Several weeks passed and I had received no training for my new position but was still expected to perform my new duties regardless the circumstance. This new position required special training that could not be learned properly just through common sense. The reviews came and I was written up for bad performance and was placed on probation with still no training given to me. To make a very long story short In the end through tenacious persistence and obvious experience with employment law, Mr. Kolman was able to resolve my case to a very lucrative end. I was impatient, angry at my employer and too emotionally involved. Timothy was able to ground me and the case to a successful outcome. I would recommend Mr. Kolman to anyone who has a labor dispute or concern about where they work and who they work with. He offers free consultations and works on a contingency basis.

When one wins a case, the tendency is to give a glowing report. I want to set aside the fact that we won and tell you like it really is. Mr Kolman is excellent! He understands the law and practices it to the letter. He does not give up especially when he knows he is right and the law is on his side. ...His tenacity shows and I can vouch for that honestly because I sat in front of three judges and listened to him pretty much put the other sides lawyer in their place while speaking directly to the judges letting them know what the law governing out case states. He would not back down when challenged and in the end, he showed his superior knowledge which sealed the case. Aside from the legal proceedings, he is a gracious and fair man. Integrity is a way of practice for him and going through what we were going through, my wife and I needed that honesty. He has a sense of humor as well which made a few things more palatable. If you need a lawyer of this caliber, you need Mr Timothy Kolman!

I had the pleasure of working with Timothy Kolman on a very unpleasant labor issue with my former employer. I originally contacted Mr. Kolman regarding a hostile work environment that eventually transitioned into a wrongful termination. I was in a position of authority in my compay and prided myself ...on being efficient and productive. I was placed in a very awkward position when the owners of the company I worked for had hired one of their daughters to work for them under my supervision. At first the relationship was professional and seemed normal until two weeks into her employment she began to come in late repeatedly, not finish the work that had been designated for her and became very confrontational with me regarding almost any interactions we would have. After several weeks of this type of behavior I presented the owner (her father) with some of the issues I had been experiencing (which were all documented) and the owner was outraged, however he was outraged with me because in his words I was creating the negative environment. To make a long story short, my employment their became very stressful and I was uncomfortable with directing or even supervising his daughter anymore because now both she and her father were yelling at me and questioning everything I did. I had worked with this company for over 20 years and had never been given a bad performance review before, in fact all my reviews were positive and most resulted in a raise. Timothy Kolman took my case on a contingency basis (he didn't get compensated for his efforts unless I did) and prevailed in court with a very satisfactory settlement one week prior to our trial date. He helped me stay calm through out the process and always tried to paint a realistic picture of what both our expectations should be for the case. I would recommend Timothy to anyone that truly has a justifiable reason to approach a labor lawyer/
