8 NOT GUILTY VERDICTS

I honestly don’t even know if words can fully explain how grateful I am for Tim and what he did for my fiancé. Tim just defended my fiancé against 8 felony charges and got him NOT GUILTY on ALL 8. Eight times we heard those words: NOT GUILTY. He also helped save him from potentially spending 11... YEARS in prison for something we truly believed he was being railroaded over. When you’re watching someone you love face that kind of situation, there is nothing more terrifying or helpless than wondering whether the system is going to listen. But Tim fought. He stood his ground. He knew the case, knew what he was doing, and most importantly, he didn’t give up. I’ll be honest about something because I think people deserve an honest review: Tim is not going to hold your hand or waste time. He doesn’t tolerate foolish questions, unnecessary conversations, or having his time wasted, and if you’re acting foolish, he WILL put you in your place. But you know what? After seeing him in action, I understand why. He takes his job seriously, he expects you to take your case seriously, and he knows exactly what he’s doing. When it was time to fight, he fought. When it was time to be prepared, he was prepared. And when it was time for that jury to make a decision, we walked away with 8 NOT GUILTY verdicts. Tim didn’t just represent my fiancé—he helped give our family back our future. He helped bring the person I love home instead of watching him potentially lose 11 years of his life. I will forever be grateful for what he did for us. If you need an attorney who is confident, knowledgeable, tough, and willing to fight for his client, I highly recommend Tim. Just listen to him, respect his time, take your case seriously, and let him do what he knows how to do. Thank you, Tim. Eight NOT GUILTY verdicts. We will never forget it.

Disappointed Beyond Words

Extremely disappointing experience. My loved one was told he would not have to serve jail time, yet he is currently sitting in jail. What’s even more frustrating is the lack of communication and responsiveness throughout this process. If this is the level of communication and accountability clients c...an expect from an attorney, I would seriously question whether they should be asking the public for the responsibility of serving as a judge.

Replied last September 06, 2026

Please identify who the client is. If it is who I think it is, the client lied to to Judge Mazzone at the plea hearing. The video was horrific and everyone in the court saw it. Add to it the client told the judge at least three (3) lies all of which the judge called him on it. On the underlying F3 you loved one, my client, was given probation. He is serving local jail time not for the acts he committed and I represented him on, but rather he said he had to travel to Mississippi when his unit went to Michigan and his commanding officer wrote the prosecutor and Judge a letter advising the Judge what the client had told him was also an untruth. I believe you are upset with the Judge and your brother. I did EVERYTHING I said I would. I cannot prevent your brother from telling untruths to the Court.

Tim was the best lawyer!!!!! Thanks Tim left the man alone to do his job and he batted 1,000 for me couldn't have asked for a better representation... THANKS AGIAN !!!!

He always answers the phone and if he is in court he’ll text you or call you right back when he gets a chance too.

I first retain Mr. Kucharski back in 07’-08’ and he’s always been there for me every time I’ll called him. He just recently represented me in 2025, I highly recommend his legal services. He a great lawyer and gets the job done.

Tim is the Best!!

I highly recommend Tim. He has been the only attorney our family has trusted for the past 17 years. Most recently, he represented my son, who was facing very serious charges. Thanks to Tim’s hard work, the outcome was exactly what we had hoped for. My son was sentenced to probation, and we are incred...ibly grateful for the result. What I appreciate most about Tim is his honesty and integrity. He never made promises he couldn’t keep, but he always gave us his honest, professional opinion based on his knowledge and experience. He truly knows the law, fights for his clients, and kept us informed every step of the way. I trust his judgment completely and would confidently recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney.
