These lawyers are great!

Tim Powers and his associates were very knowledgeable and helpful through out my whole case. I always got answers to my questions. I'm very pleased with them and the outcome! I'm so glad I picked them over the other lawyers I talked to.

Thank you!!

Although I never got to see Tim in person, my mind was at ease knowing that him and his employees kept up to date with me consistently and let me know what was going on. My case is now finished and I am pleased with the outcome. Thank you so much!

Hire this attorney

I hired Tim to represent my daughter. Tim communicated well and kept me up to date with the status of the case. I would use him again if needed.

Promises not made

My case was 10 years ago this November for purchase and furnish to minors. I went to Tim Powers based off his radio ads and his initial letter after I bonded out. When I met Mr. Powers; he was completely professional. He explained the serious charges I was facing, and that being a first time offender... with a clean record outside of this one incident he would fight for me to be put into a youth probation program. Which after completion the charges would be dropped and my life would go back to normal. I was under age and did not actually purchase nor furnish the alcohol, which made me believe what he said. Mind you I was a young stupid 19 year old who thought protecting my friends was the right thing to do little did I know it was the worst thing I could ever do with my life. Mr Powers kept me in the loop with just court dates through letter mail. When my final court date came he approached my mother and I with a bargain from the prosecution. Instead of being put into the youth program I was made example of with being punished under every stipulation outside of jail time. Mr Powers showed up late and said that it was the best he could do. I dont believe today that what he said then was true. I believe I was just another dollar sign. I remember immediately after finishing my cout ordered requirements. I was sent a letter for sealment of my records just another way for Mr Powers office to get more money from a client he did not properly represent. I am disappointed and disgusted with the fact now 10 years later I am having to try to fight and if possible clear my name. I do not deny underage drinking with what I thought were friends 10 years ago was smart it was the dumbest thing I ever did, Protecting them from getting in trouble was even worse since in reality I never purchased that alcohol. I hope for any one searching for a lawyer with a similiar charge; they stay weary of Mr Powers and his broken promises.
