A Lawyer you can Trust

I had two previous lawyers prior to working with the McDuffey law firm, I wasted two years with zero results. Within 2 months of taking my case, we had some progress and within six months were already successful with a portion of the case. I appreciate the time, attention and dedication both Brad M...edcalf and Tim McDuffey have given my case. I firmly believe that we would not have progressed in my case without their expertise. I can say with absolute confidence, I would recommend the McDuffey Law Firm for personal injury cases. Helpful?

Thank God for Tim

Tim McDuffey won my accident case for 1 Million, Thank God my mother in law found him, he is truly an honorable Attorney, and it shows thru his work, he made sure all my bills were paid, so I did not have to deal with creditors, he would always listen to my concerns and worries with a gentle heart, h...e truly takes his cases to heart, not only was he my accident attorney, but my disability advocate, and to this day 5 years later, he still listens to my concern about disabilities, and advices me on what action to take,Tim you’re an amazing Attorney, a loyal friend to talk to, and I think of Tim as a God sent Angel in my life, thanks for your advice 5 years later even though he is not getting paid,he is always there with open ears to rely on, and nowadays you can't rely on much, but I have had the experience with Tim and Michelle, both of them are truly amazing together as a team.

Be careful of representing yourself

I thought about handling my workers' compensation case on my own. The insurance company offered me $12,000 to settle my case. i was thinking about taking it. I knew Tim from school. The visit was free so i went in to talk to him. Tim pointed out some things about my case that i was not even awar...e of. I hired Tim and he got my case settled for $60,000. I'm so glad i did not settle the case on my own.

Incredibly Thankful

My experience with Tim McDuffey was second to none. I honestly felt more like family than a client. Tim was incredibly knowledgeable about his line of work. Tim helped me pay attention to and see thing I thought would be over-looked. I would recommend Tim to everybody and their mother. I can nev...er thank him enough for what he did for me and how hard he worked for me. Tim changed my life for the better and I am incredibly thankful!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"If you have been injured, either at work or in the natural course of your life, Tim McDuffey is an attorney you must consider. Tim is a diligent worker with natural intelligence. In addition to his intelligence Tim has a knack for relating to his clients on a basic human level. Tim is a truly kind-hearted individual who takes a genuine and personal interest in each case. He is always looking to help good people in bad situations. He will take the time to get to know you as a person beyond your case. He is not afraid to fight for his clients, and unlike many lawyers, will take a case all the way to trial if necessary. If you hire Tim you know you will get maximum value on your case. I think It is that peace of mind during an otherwise stressful situation that leads to so many satisfied clients. I would recommend Tim to my closest friends and family. He is truly and excellent attorney."
