Timothy Alfred Cook

I brought my Personal Injury case to Mr. Timothy Cook exactly 2 WEEKS before the statute of limitations was to expire on an automobile accident I was involved in. The other party admitted responsibility so I went on the internet and bought a book thinking I could represent myself. BOY WAS I WRONG! ... I was very fortunate when I contacted Mr. Timothy Cook, who handles many areas of law in addition to Personal Injury, and he agreed to take the case. Working with no time left, he was able to file a lawsuit which prevented me from receiving NOTHING to getting more than I thought I would. Mr. Cook and his staff kept in touch with me during all aspects of my case. When I was deposed by the opposing attorney, Mr. Cook asked to talk to me in private. He realized, based on my pre-existing back injuries, that a trial would not bring me the result I would expect and in fact, because of my previous injuries, a jury could award me nothing. He then explained an arbitration. He advised me of the pros and cons of both a trial and an arbitration. Based on his expert advice, I choose the arbitration. Mr. Cook had several discussion with opposing council and he was so convincing to them that they increased their initial bottom offer by a sizable amount. All along I was kept in the know by both Mr. Cook and his staff. The arbitrator did not rule in my favor due to my previous injuries but thanks to Mr. Cook's knowledge of the possible outcome of a trial jury and by his ability to convince the attorney representing the insurance company to increase the initial 'bottom' arbitration figure, I won much more than I thought I would. I was a very lucky person to have been represented by Mr. Cook. I believe his experience in litigating so many of these type of cases, that his advise for me to go with arbitration rather than a jury trial saved me from getting nothing to the greater amount he negotiated prior to going to arbitration. I was not the easiest of clients to deal with as I thought I knew Personal Injury Law based on information from ONE source on the internet. Thank God I did not even attempt to do this myself. I never would have even made it to arbitration based on what I went through in my deposition and forward. Not only did Mr. Cook and his staff save me from financial disaster but AFTER his firm was paid they continued to pursue other avenues for me to be reimbursed from my out of pocket expenses by contacting my insurance company who paid me a handsome figure under the PIP clause in my policy as well as other money from my health provider. I RECOMMEND MR. COOK AND HIS STAFF TO ANYONE AND EVERYONE! They were knowledgeable, understanding, patient, compassionate AND THEY WON! My thanks especially to Tim Cook and his legal assistant, Helena. I would have had creditors after me if it were not for your expertise.

I was extremely pleased with the manner Mr. Cook handled my daughter's case. It was a first time offense which could have had severe rep ructions for her, as well as, affected her future. He explained the charges to her, what sentenced it carried and what he believed would be the best defense for he...r to take. He answered all of her questions and made her feel comfortable . His experience and knowledge of the law is impeccable. Day of Court went over the court procedure with her so she would no what to expect. He was confident and prepared in front of Judge. The outcome was what we wanted. Very grateful for his help and would recommend!
