Only the Best!

Tim Karen and his assistant, Tassia Taylor, are the best. They represented and fought our case without hesitation. They managed our expectations as well and, we believe, secured for us the best possible outcome. Highly recommend!

Recouping retirement funds!

We had the misfortune of trusting our broker financial planner Ray Schmidt and lost $175,000. Ray was a financial partner of Green Room Financial, he lost his broker's license in a FINRA investigation. Needless to say Ray behaved badly and took off with our money. We were naive to think that because ...of the FINRA judgment that our out of pocket money would be returned. That is when we got in touch with Attorney Tim Karen. Tim did a thorough investigation and turned over all of the legal rocks to identify all the culprits that helped in Ray's cover up. He got restitution from all of these characters. Atty. Karen was like a bulldog and got all of these individuals to come to mediation to settle up with us. In this process we hooked up with other families who were taken advantage of by Ray. Tim and his ace paralegal Tassia held our hands and made this harrowing experience bearable. Thank you Tim and Tassia. We now have a more comfortable retirement thanks to your expertise and diligence.

Excellent Attorney & paralegal

Tim Karen and his paralegal Tassia are excellent. We are very happy with their services. They are very efficient, effective, and professional. They did what they said they would do and more. They have true integrity. I give them my highest recommendation.

In support of the Law Office of Mr, Karen

Mr. Karen and his team have worked diligently on our case which has had many twists and turns. He has allayed our anxieties when unfounded and has calmy directed us into action when required. They are very responsive to our questions and keep us informed of every development. As this case involves m...y elderly grandmother, we have been grateful for a legal team who understands our needs and vulnerabilities. The transcripts of hearings we've been provided show that Mr. Karen represents our position clearly, concisely and is well focused. We have great confidence in Mr. Karen and his team.
