Tymon is knowledgeable and honest lawyer

I was not asked to write this review by anyone. Out of gratitude I write this review. I will summarize this review at the beginning. If you need a knowledgeable and honest lawyer, then look no further than Tymon Bay. Why do I make this statement? My journey with Tymon started on April 27, ...2018, when I desperately needed quick legal advice on a Beneficiary Deed and probate estate. I was told by Jasper County appraisal district that a Beneficiary Deed for Carthage real estate in my name was not valid because of a date error. I contacted Tymon and he agreed there was a legal date problem with the deed, which meant I owned nothing. However, Tymon stated I think you may still legally own the property and I can research this for you if you want. The legal investment was minimal compared to the potential gain. At this point, I committed to have Tymon legally represent me. Three months later Tymon pleaded to the court they I legally owned the property - I will not explain the complex details. To my surprise, I was awarded 100% ownership of the property. The property was subsequently sold for $300,000. During this journey, I felt Tymon's consulting charges were fare - no overbilling. Also, I was continually amazed with Tymon's knowledge of the law and his willingness to admit when he did not know the answer but would perform research. This was an extremely unusual and complicated case involving probate and deeds.

Valuable and inciteful one-hour consultation

On April 27, 2018, I had a one-hour telephone consultation with Tymon Bay. The topic was Beneficiary Deed and probate estate. Typically, Tymon knew the answer to my questions from his experience/memory. What truly impressed me was when Tymon did not know the answer, he stated let me check the law.... He immediately did internet research with law records and cited the legal reference found. No BS – just the facts. My need for legal representation continues and Tymon is my go to lawyer.

Business Contract

Tymon wrote a business contract for us, and he did a great job. He explained things well, made several good suggestions that we had not thought of, and got the contract written on our timeline. We will use him again when our business needs a contract written.
