Workers compensation

I can't thank Tim enough for helping me with my workers' comp case. From the start, he was very friendly and explained everything in a way I could understand. He was always there to answer my questions and kept me updated on what was happening. I didn't expect to get much from my settlement, but T...im worked really hard and got me a lot more than I thought I would get. His knowledge and dedication really showed through. He made sure I understood each step and never made me feel rushed. If you're looking for a workers' comp lawyer who really cares and knows what he's doing, I highly recommend Tim. He did an amazing job for me, and I'm really grateful for all his help. He's the best!

Tim English, Hero

When I had a work injury & my works Insurance didn't want to take responsibility I met with & hired Tim English. He was very easy to talk to & straight forward and has stayed that way thru the whole experience. He was on top of every problem the insurance company and state threw @ us by the time I kn...ew about it. Always making sure my medical & payments were taken care of & got me a good settlement in the end. A couple friends were very upset their attorneys weren't Tim. After it was all finished Tim got ahold of me & asked a couple questions and said he thought I qualified for a SIBTF case. He just won that case, which is huge, unexpected financial help. I don't know how to express how great Tim has been.

Best workers comp lawyer!

I am writing this review to recommend Tim English as Workers comp lawyer! I injured my shoulder and arm at work in 2020. I was dealing with workers comp and employee health myself for a while. However, it was getting more and more difficult to deal with them after it was obvious they did not want to... do anything about my injury. I called few lawyers who deals with workers comp but didn’t seem very helpful. But when I called Tim, things just went from dark to light! He was very approachable, very responsive to call or email, very knowledgeable and reliable. He made sure to give me a peace of mind. He is also very resourceful. In the end, we were able to settle in my favor. If you need a lawyer for your work injury, you should at least call him to have consultation! You won’t be disappointed!

Tim English, a great lawyer

I've had the pleasure of working with Mr. Tim English on an industrial related case recently. Tim is an experienced lawyer, and a great person to work with. His guidance are highly professional, timely, to the point and effective! During the time that I have worked with Tim, he always provided me w...ith wise and positive advice. He has a great awareness and understanding of his client's-myself- limited knowledge of the related law/rules and regulations; and his guidance/responses are empowering, educational and uplifting. Tim is only a text/phone call or email away; available to assist his clients very easily and quickly-something I wish we could say about a lot of other busy professionals! I had a great experience working with Tim, and wish him the best! If you need a lawyer to help you with your case, I highly recommend you to contact Tim! With warm regards, Maryam :-)
