Thank you!

We contracted Mr Timbers services after a business partner embezzled company funds and we needed legal help to dig out. He has helped us every step of the way and now we are back in the green and moving forward! Mr Timbers saved our company and saved our future. He listens, he cares and he does what... he says.. We were blessed to find him and will never be able to thank him for all he has done.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
