Timothy Thomas Conlon

I hired Mr. Conlon to represent me in my custody case. When I first met with him, he assured me that mine was an "open & shut case," and that there was no way my ex-husband would get what he was requesting. Tim was so confident, that he even assured me that my ex would be ordered to pay MY legal fees.... Throughout the year-long process, it was extremely difficult to get a hold of Tim when I had questions. Multiple meetings were scheduled with both Tim and his legal secretary, and on numerous occasions they either did not show up at all, or they showed up 45 minutes late. Nothing was ever done in regards to my case until a few days before (sometimes even 1 day before) my hearings/trials. I provided Tim with HUNDREDS of e-mails from my ex that would have COMPLETELY PROVEN MY CASE. At the trial, Tim did not present a single e-mail! The only 2 pieces of evidence that he submitted were a transcript from my first trial, and his bill! Both of which were completely useless. HE DID NOT PRESENT A SINGLE PIECE OF EVIDENCE IN MY DEFENSE, despite having numerous e-mails to prove that my ex was lying! In the end, not only did I not get awarded my legal fees, but I was ordered to pay my ex's legal fees AND ALMOST ENDED UP IN JAIL! In the end, I was ordered to pay more than $13,000 in legal fees for my ex and my children. That's ON TOP OF the $7,000 for Tim's fees! My child support was also reduced by 25%. For a single mother raising 4 young children, that's a major deal! I will likely end up having to file bankruptcy over all this. The worst part is, after filing a motion for a new trial on my behalf, Tim QUIT his job as my lawyer with NO EXPLANATION and NO DISCUSSION with me. He gave me no reason for why he was quitting, and did not have the decency to call me and tell me himself. He sent me a letter in the mail, like a coward. If you are looking for an attorney who is going to fight for you and put 100% effort into your case, do not hire Tim Conlon. His past experience is NOT indicative of his present capabilities.

I contacted Mr. Conlon and informed him about my child custody case. He assured me over the phone that he would handle the case and that the situation was cut and dry. I drove to his office a few days later to meet with him. He did not show up for our appointment. I called him and he did not answer. ...I received a call from him around mid night that night. He sounded intoxicated on his voice message. I would absolutely not recommend him to anyone. He got my $3000 retainer and that's the last I heard from him.
