Best attorney

Tim is the best attorney on post conviction relief. My case also involved immigration. He even visited me at ICE detention. He definitely knows the law and is a fighter for my freedom. I was able to get back to my family and took back my immigration status are all thanks to Tim. He is definitely the ...guy you should hire

Knowledgeable and persistent

Tim is a rock star. Initially he told me what’s the plan of action would be and what are best and worst case scenarios. He stuck to the plan and executed it flawlessly. Tim was able to re-open 4 of my criminal cases and amended sentencing or vacated charges all together. He went above and beyond to g...et the best result’s possible. In result, I was able to successfully pursue my immigration case. Which was. 20 year battle. Over all, Tim played a life changing role in my life and will be forever grateful.

Dedicated and experienced

Tim worked diligently to understand the details of my case and was able to demonstrate my innocence. Due to Tim's hard work and expertise, the charges filed against me were dismissed

Diligent and caring

Genuinely cares about his clients. Has successfully represented us twice for different matters. Has a comprehensive grasp of a wide range of legal issues and experiences. Works the issues exhaustively and completely, and is well-prepared. Effective and tenacious in the courtroom with judges and pros...ecutors; as a criminal defense attorney he is outstanding.

If I could add more stars, I would

Tim was an incredible lawyer. He went above and beyond to help not only get my case heard, but completely vacated and dismissed. Even during the pandemic, he was excellent about keeping me updated about where we were at in the courts. He was also just very straight forward about my options, no sugar ...coating, which I really appreciated. Worth every cent, I would gladly return to Tim for legal help.

"Tim is an exceptional attorney who has proved to be a tremendous resource to those of us fortunate enough to share an office suite with him. He has quickly become the go-to-guy in the office suite when we need to know the latest changes in criminal and immigration law and his strong legal writing skills set him apart from even those colleagues who have been practicing law much longer than him. To be more succinct, Tim is an excellent attorney and I whole-heartedly endorse both his work and his character."
