Avoid At All Costs

Timothy J Ryan and Associates is a complete disaster. He and his gaggle of assitants repeatedly ignored my emails, sent me paperwork with another client’s name on it, and even addressed me as a "Miss" in one of their most recent emails (I am a male). They canceled an appointment I took time off work ...for - just 15 minutes before it was supposed to start. I would email them to make sure they're aware of certain details or developments of the case, or would request information, and would be completely ignored or receive a response addressing only part of my original message. Tim Ryan himself is forgetful, unresponsive, and unprofessional - going so far as to send a snarky email when he learned I hired a different attorney for another case. "Say hello to my good friend Gary." Tim also referred to me by different clients' names on multiple occasions. They settled one of my cases for the bare minimum offered by my own uninsured motorist policy when the other party's insurance denied the claim. They didn't bother challenging the decision or filing a lawsuit against them despite the insured being clearly liable in causing the accident and fleeing the scene. They left money on the table and opted for an easy settlement instead. This firm is lazy, sloppy, and downright disrespectful. Don’t waste your time.

Tim is awesome

Settled two vehicle accidents for me. Both with total satisfaction. Excellent staff as well.

Head injury claim in auto accident

I was a passenger in a auto accident where I had sustained a head injury. I hired Tim Ryan for my personal injury claim and he went to work right away. I was very happy with his services as he was able to get me the max settlement for my injuries, and he was always available when ever I had any quest...ions regarding my claim. I definitely would recommend him to all my family and friends.

Very happy with my decision to choose Tim

Tim and everyone at his office did a great job handling my case. They were very nice from the beginning and regularly kept me informed about my case. I felt like they were "with me" throughout the process and that they really cared about my well-being. In the end I got a great result.

Amazing law office!

Tim and his team got me an amazing settlement after being in a horrible car accident. There was constant communication - I could even text the office! I could not be more pleased with the outcome. Thank you so much for everything!

"Tim Ryan is an excellent personal injury attorney, community leader, philanthropist and an over all great guy. I have had the pleasure of knowing him personally and working with him on catastrophic personal injury cases. Tim has 30 years of experience as a personal injury trial lawyer. He has represented thousands of clients and has gotten some outstanding results for the most deserving people. Tim is much more than just a great personal injury attorney.
