You are the best!!

He is one of the lawyers that I trust. He is very knowledgeable about the law and has helped me even my English is not perfect. Also, he is always been there when I have needed his service and doesnt just get the job done, but goes above and beyond. I took my case for a year and got dismissal finally...!!! Thank you Tim :)

If you're in need, he's the one to go to

I was charged with a criminal offense and was arrested overnight. I had no idea what to do with my life, just being devastated and depressed as hell in the jail. Not to mention that I had a pending greencard application with USCIS. I cried so much in the jail, but my big sister found Tim. She hired T...im for me and Tim bailed me out with Pat and Mike (bondsmen) the next day. After few months (exactly took Dec-Oct 11 months), Tim got my case dismissed!! And when USCIS asked for all the certified documents from the court, as soon as they received my dismissal papers, I was granted my greencard. My family and I cried so much that day and we would not have that without Tim. I will not let that happen ever again, but if anyone close to me has any criminal case they need an attorney who will fight for them, I will def recommend Tim. He will do everything he can to make sure that his clients are good to go.

100% Endorsement. Excellent, professional, caring.

I and my family 100% recommend Tim Clancy to you. We hired Mr. Clancy for a serious matter related to juvenile criminal defense. From day one, until even after the final court date, Mr. Clancy has been a model of professionalism, excellence, and care. Here are a few things that stand out: - Mr. Cl...ancy met with us in-person, within 24 hours of our first call. And he did so on a holiday weekend. - During that first meeting, it became clear to me very quickly that Mr. Clancy was not only excellent at his work, but that he genuinely cared for us as people. - Mr. Clancy (and his office) were very up-front about costs. Never once did we wonder about hidden charges of any kind. We got a quote and a plan, and he kept to it. - Mr. Clancy was available and responsive throughout the duration of our case. He always called back, and was always on time to every appointment - Finally, Mr. Clancy helped us achieve that absolute best possible legal outcome that we could have gotten, given our situation. - Finally (part 2) - Mr. Clancy has continued to be helpful to us and check in on us, even after the case has been officially resolved.

Awesome

Anyone having to deal with the criminal justice system knows first hand how stressful it is. I'm was just happy that I found this firm but was blown away by the way they treated me and went to bat for me. Thanks guys and keep up the great work.

You’re researching attorneys and going through thousands of reviews - hope this helps.

Agg Assault w/ deadly weapon. A serious charge I never imagined I would need to defend against. I’ve never needed an attorney, had no idea what I was going to do. I met with 4 attorneys some good some not and after meeting with Tim, knew he was the best for my case. Soon after our initial meeting, I... started to feel more at ease (as much as you can when facing a felony). Tim was always quick to return my calls, texts, and emails and as the case progressed and I began to gain more confidence that everything was going to turn out alright. He walked me through all possible outcomes during each stage and his thoughts from his experience of what was likely to happen, each time being close if not spot on. My case ended with a misdemeanor non-conviction, deferral. It was an outcome that was best case scenario and it was all because of his efforts. Thanks Tim, you are an amazing attorney for legal defense.

  • 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.
