Great Results / Great Representation / Great Attorney

Tim Powers is an outstanding attorney. He is representing me in a drug delivery case in Denton County. .He is most knowledgeable and extremely reliable. He has been dependable and trustworthy. Although I live out of state, Mr. Powers and his office have successfully kept me up to speed on the prog...ress of my case. I started out being very impatient and wanted immediate closure. Tim told me that the better results take a long time and I needed to be patient. He was absolutely right. It took over 4 months to have the drugs tested by the state lab and once the results were known my attorney went in "battle mode." The results couldn't have been better. I was informed this week the case had been dismissed. I was facing up to 20 years in prison and couldn't be more relieved. Thank you.

Honest evaluation- perfect result.

I was in a “tight spot” — already indicted for a felony assault case. I saw several attorneys, but Tim Powers calmly assessed, analyzed, and concluded it was possible to beat the case, in spite of the odds against us. The thing I really respected about Tim was the fact that he was very blunt and ot ...the point. No sugar candy coating, no lies. In a criminal case, odds are against one who is arrested in Denton County. It took a lot of effort, but needless to say …… WE WON! And with flying colors. I’ve talked to a few lawyer friends of mine, and they have NEVER heard of a D.A. giving up on an INDICTMENT to go back to the Grand Jury. Tim was recommended to me by another attorney. Said you were HONEST. He was absolutely correct. He also said you were one of, if not, the FINEST criminal attorney in Denton County. I found that to be correct. Anyone who is reading this should know that you and your firm are the BEST in Denton County. He operates with skill and INTEGRITY second to none. If someone is looking for an attorney who will patronize them and lie to them, then the Tim Powers office is not for you. My case was unique and quite complex, There were a lot of bumps in the road throughout our one and a half years in the process. In the end result my case was dismissed and I have my life back. I hope I will never be involved in another criminal case again. But if I am, I am only going one place for representation.

Denton County Criminal Lawyer Tim Powers

Tim Powers is absolutely the best attorney in Denton County. I recently had an felony assault case. Tim and his staff went over the facts and found issues that just amazed me. On Friday the case was dismissed. The stress of the arrest was insurmountable, however, I can breathe a huge sigh of relief n...ow that the Law Office of Tim Powers was able to get a dismissal for me. Considering the state was offering 5 years TDC, I couldn't be happier. Hopefully I won't have criminal law issues again, however, when I do there is only one place to turn in Denton County. Tim Powers did a fantastic job for me. His office is somewhat more expensive than some other firms -- but the results they get are well worth the expense. Tim Powers kept me out of prison.
