Extremely Knowledgeable

Our business took a huge hit and we were stuck with very little cashflow. We hired Tim to gain clarity and be provided information to pivot in the correct direction. Highly recommend exploring your options with these guys before making any bankruptcy decisions in Las Vegas!

Useless and a Scammer

I regret to say that my experience with Mr. Timothy Thomas was extremely disappointing. I hired him with a $500 retainer fee, expecting professional and timely legal services. Unfortunately, that was not the case. On two occasions, I asked Mr. Timothy Thomas to review a simple one-page agreement. ...Each time, it took him weeks to respond. This delay was unacceptable and caused significant inconvenience. His assistant, Kimberley, was no help either. Communication was poor, and I never received any invoices detailing how my retainer fee was being used. When I finally requested a refund, Mr. Timothy Thomas provided an invoice stating that the entire retainer fee had been used up, without any prior notice or explanation. I plan to put a complaint with the Nevada Bar Association. If you are looking for a responsive and professional attorney, I strongly advise against using Mr. Timothy Thomas. My experience was a waste of time and money.

A wonderful attorney!

I wish I could give this law firm more than 5 stars. They are extremely compassionate, caring and most of all, experienced. He even made me laugh a few times. I wasn't rushed off the phone and was given one on one attention for as long as I needed. We need more lawyers like this. Ones that care more... about the people they help than their bottom line. Thank you for being good people!

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2025.

Reprimanded issued in NV, 2025

updated on 09/19/2025

This means the attorney did something wrong, but the Bar did not suspend the lawyer. Typically in this case the lawyer's poor behavior is exposed to the public in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
