Thank you!!! You have helped me tremendously!!!

I want to thank Tim Weir so much for the time he spent deciphering and explaining my parent's trust documents. He worked with me for two days, reviewing my documents and talking to me about my case. He was very nice, very courteous, very knowledgeable, and obviously cared very much about my feelings ...about my family. He offered me legal advice and suggestions that I otherwise would have never thought about. I found the right lawyer for me. I highly recommend Mr. Weir to anyone who thinks they might have a case involving a trust. I would give Tim Weir 10 stars out of 5 if I could. Thank you, Mr. Weir.

Highly Recommended

Mr. Weir stepped in under difficult circumstances and quickly accessed my case, which was very complex. He provided excellent advice, kept his hours/charges reasonable and was able to bring my case to settlement via mediation instead of litigation. This minimized the time and cost to me. The other... parties were unreasonable and Mr. Weir successfully cut to the chase, recognizing the valid arguments amid a myriad of misleading statements. I highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a very competent attorney.

Excellent legal authority

I saw Mr. Weir on a referral, needing expert advice after my wife passed away unexpectedly and without a will. Though this is not quite his expertise, he agreed to a consultation. His assistant scheduled 1.5 hours, asking me to bring certain documents, and advising me it would be without charge. Mr W...eir spent nearly 2.5 hours with me reviewing my documents and conducting research on issues unique to my situation. He provided specific advice on how to move forward, including specific wording to be used in correspondence. My wife's estate is relatively uncomplicated, so it was clear there would be little need for additional time. Yet he never implied, nor did I feel, my situation was "beneath" his expertise. I was quite impressed with this. There would be no additional billable hours, yet he didn't rush through our meeting, and his interest was in addressing all of my questions and concerns. His advice was invaluable, and his demeanor was comforting. I felt he was genuinely concerned for me personally, and wanted to make sure I was fully taken care of. I will strongly recommend Mr. Weir to anyone that asks me, and I feel lucky to have found him.

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.
