Excellent Experience with Tim Sottile

I just had a phone consultation with Tim Sottile and am so grateful I contacted him. He was referred to me by a coworker who had nothing but praise for him. I'm a long-winded talker, but Tim listened patiently to hear my situation, gave excellent advice, and if my issues aren't resolved, I'll be cont...acting him for his full services. He spent at least an hour talking with me on a Friday night. That's dedication to his profession and shows he is truly interested in understanding the experience of a client. Thank you, Tim. It was very nice speaking with you. You relieved some of my anxiety by simply advising wisely. You have a great sense of humor, too! - Mary

A Team You Can Trust

I would like to thank Tim Sottile and his team for their excellent work and support they provided me on many different levels. In my first consultation meeting with Mr. Sottile he provided me timely and helpful advice regarding my case. Mr. Sottile was extremely attentive and he listened to all my... concerns with a great deal of patience. This was a critical time in my life mentally and physically. I was very thankful that someone "cared" about the discriminatory injustices I experienced by management and co-workers. Mr. Sottile demonstrated his passion and level of commitment to his work and mastered my case with excellence. Mr. Sottile and his team have good judgement, analytical skills, and perseverance. I can not say enough that this was one of the worst times in my life and they made me feel like I was family. To have a team of people thanking me for standing up for myself is priceless. Thank you for winning my case Sottile Baltaxe team! The settlement will pay the bills. I am very grateful.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
