Timothy is a great lawyer!

Somehow lawyers have a bad reputation. But through my experience of working with Tim, I firmly believe there are good ones out there! Tim is a great lawyer with excellent listening and negotiation skills, putting client's interest first. He is very even handed, very objective, yet with the goal of ac...complishing what the client has reasonably requested. I very much appreciate his help and his excellent service. Thank you Tim!

Knowledgeable, Honest and Results Oriented

I cannot say enough good things about Timothy! He was able to to make an extremely painful experience less painful. He is professional and very upfront and honest. He doesn't just tell you that he is doing something - he really wants his clients to understand the why and the how. From our first meeti...ng to our final email correspondence - I always felt like he truly had my best interest at heart. I was extremely happy with the outcome with my case and would recommend Timothy a thousand times over!

Excellent service!

We had a case that required negotiating a dispute before heading into litigation, and the way Tim communicated with the other side was amazing! We got great results due to his great negotiating strategy! During the time of the case, Tim was always very knowledgeable, professional, good listener, deta...il-oriented, and informative as well. I would definitely recommend him for family and friends!

Work place retaliation

Mr. Oleary listened to my description. He gave me some initial positive and negative feedback and gave me a homework assignment. Very simple.

Superior employment law attorney!

Timothy's employment law knowledge is comprehensive and he was able to help me get a very fair settlement with my previous employer. He seemed more knowledgable than their expensive law firm, helping me out maneuver their tactics at every turn. He has an excellent attention to detail, he is strat...egic, personable, always made time to meet even with short notice, he was prompt with his email responses, calm even when I wasn't, and was beyond fair with pricing. I can't say enough great things about working with Timothy and highly recommend his services.
