Amazing Knowledgeable Worker Compensation Attorney.

Before contacting Tim I did not understand my rights under Labor Law. After making contact with Tim he thoroughly explained to me might rights, but most importantly to me he walk me to worker compensation process step by step. As results I received favorable work compensation settlement. Thank You!

While the workers' compensaiton system has been created to allow the injured worker to represent themselves, insurance carriers and defense attorneys make navigating this process on your own nearly impossible. So happy I can provide my assistance to you to provide a favorable outcome. All the best!

Professional

First I want to thank Tim English with Wiesner English, P.C. for stepping in to represent me in my work injury when I needed it the most. Tim is an excellent guy when it comes to getting clarity. He is upfront and tells you how it is without sugar coating it so you can ultimately make the best deci...sion for you and your family. I am not the type to leave reviews but I wanted to share my experience so that maybe one day he can help you through a tough time like he did with me. What stood out to me the most is Tim’s integrity because through this whole process he’s been accurate, honest, and truthful through his actions. Thanks again Tim I really do appreciate it!

Highly recommended

Tim was my representative. He came in and helped me greatly through my case. He helped speed things along and helped me through this very difficult process. He was quick to respond to any and all questions I had, and was always very professional, thorough, and polite. He always came across very c...ompassionate and thoughtful which was greatly welcomed when trying to navigate the workers compensation process. I would like to thank Tim and his team for fighting for me, and helping me get through this case. 5 stars all across the board. I highly recommend him and his team.

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.
