Run far away from this office

If you are looking for someone to truly fight for your case run the complete opposite way from this law office. I got a consultation with Tim Powers where he will tell you he has experience with what ever city you got arrested in. Will talk some big stuff about being able to get the best deal or even... dismissal. What is going to happen is you will never speak or hear from Tim powers again you will get thrown to some other representative from the office. They are just going to tell you that all the evidence is against you and you are guilty and try to talk you into just taking a plea deal with things like “don’t you just want to get this over with” and “if you just take the deal you will end up paying less” the lack of concern you will receive is alarming and surprises me this place is even still in business. This office only cares about getting the max conviction for the county and prosecutors. You could with your eyes closed pick any other law office and receive better representation. Hope this helps anyone wanting to know how the process will go for you by choosing this office.

We thought we were paying for Mr. Powers to represent us, not an Associate.

Mr. Power's office represented us on a DWI case. Our initial meeting he was fantastic, Tim told us how he wants to personally represent us & walked us through his strategy. We paid his retainer & spoke to him one other time. Mr. Powers would not return our calls after multiple messages. Instead we c...ould only speak to his front desk receptionists or office assistants. Next, we were assigned to one of his staff Attorney's. Not someone we would have picked, however we had already paid a retainer. We then spent months being put through the system & received a typical plea bargain (BTW-If we wanted to go to court vs the plea, it was a whole new fee). Mr. Powers sold us hat he would personally represent us, however he pushed to us to an staff associates. In summary , we thought we were paying for Tim to represent us, not an Associate.
