Highly Recommended!

My company has worked with Tim for over 15 years. We have followed Tim as he worked with some of the large legal firms and are pleased to continue working with him now that he has started his own firm. It is great to have an attorney with a solid engineering background, he understands the electro-mec...hanical systems that we are working with. I wouldn't be working with him for this long if not for his expertise and attention to details, I can honestly give Tim my highest recommendation.

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.
