Tim is the best lawyer I have ever worked with.
I would recommend him to anyone who wants to find the best. He is sincere, professional, and goes that extra mile to make sure you have ever possible bit of information to get what you need. He is truly amazing. Excellence defines his practice.
I have found Tim to be very knowledgeable, honest, and straightforward in his assessments regarding legal issues he has assisted me with. Having known Tim for approximately 15 years, and knowing his integrity to be what it is, I trust his advice and would not hesitate to refer others to him.
