5 stars for Tim

I found Tim on Avvo and reached out after a work injury wasn’t being handled appropriately by my WC doctor. His paralegal was very nice and took the time to listen to my story before setting me up with an appointment to meet with Tim promptly. Tim also took the time to listen to my story and was very... sympathetic to my situation, having also suffered from an injury himself. He was friendly, easily accessible and easy to work with through my entire case. He’s very knowledgeable and prompt. He never hesitated to take time to explain things in a way I could understand and I never felt like he was rushing me. I very much appreciated his patience. He always let me know what to expect next and we eventually had a favorable outcome. I highly recommend Tim and am very pleased to have chosen him to represent me.

Elizabeth Gonzales.

Tim English and all of the Legal team did a great job handling my case. He was always very professional very patient and understanding he answered all of my questions very thoroughly and was quick to respond to my phone calls and emails. The entire team at the law firm were great. Due to the pandemic... there were many delays which could have caused confusion for me. Tim was the lighthouse in my storm I highly recommend his services. Yo no puedo decir suficiente Tim English ayudó a mi familia muchísimo el Y los otros trabajadores tiene mucho paciencia Y contestó todo mi preguntas y explicó todo bien a mi. Ellos siempre contesta inmediatamente mis e-mails y llamadas. Gracias a él, ahora mi salud y mi Familia podemos vivir sin sufrimiento.

Appreciate you Tim.

Tim is a genuine person who truly cares for a person and there injuries. Tim and his team of well experience professionals delivered on ALL of their promises and were completely honest about how my process of getting compensated was going to take place. Tim was more than willing to listen to all my c...omplaints and needs and gave me the assurance that everything was going to be ok. Basically what I’m trying to relay is when my back was against the wall, Tim fought for me like he was fighting for himself, men of integrity like time are hard to come by, thank you Tim.

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.
