Excellent Attorney!

Saw Mr White to appeal a disability claim that I originally filed myself. He was thorough, professional and kind. He took his time and patiently answered all my questions. His office team were also very nice to work with. Even my surgeon told me it was unlikely to receive disability for the type ...of injury I had, but approximately 2 months after I met with Mr. White, my case had been approved. I never had to speak to anyone else at social security or fill out any other forms. I'm sure it's not always the case, but it was unbelievably quick and easy for me. I highly recommend Mr. White to anyone filing for social security disability. And do it from the start; don't waste your time doing it on your own.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I limit my practice to personal injury and Workers' Compensation matters but don't do Social Security. I have referred clients to Tim for over 10 years and the clients have universally thanked me for recommending Tim. I've never had anything but positive comments from the clients who had Tim handle their cases which is not something I can say about every attorney."

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.
