About Timothy
Biography
I practice " people law", that is I help people who have legal problems with personal injury claims, car accidents, DUI/Traffic problems, dog bite injuries, and criminal charges. I don't represent companies or corporations, I represent people. I have been practicing law since 1988, always in the service of those with personal injury claims or needing aggressive criminal defense. I am dedicated to helping my clients resolve the pressing legal problems they face. I will be handling your case personally, not an associate or paralegal. You can count on me for straight talk and clear explanations so you understand the legal process, the strengths and weaknesses of your case, and the options available to you.
Contact my Harford County, MD (Bel Air) law office if you are seeking an attorney who provides personal service and quality representation at a reasonable fee. My office hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., with evening appointments available upon request. I make hospital and jail visits. My office is located directly across from District Court and Circuit Court in Bel Air
