GREAT!

Posted by

I was referred to Tim Denison by a friend of mine. Tim goes above and beyond to answer questions day or night, fighting for me and my child in court, and doing exactly what he says he is going to do! His office staff went above and beyond for me as well! I'll pay it forward and refer others to him as well!

I have known Tim for nearly 20 years. Tim is one of the preeminent criminal defense practitioners in Louisville and the Commonwealth. He is a tenacious and experienced defender who brings an unyielding loyalty to the clients lucky enough to have him. If I were ever in trouble, he is the guy I would call.
