True champion for those in need

When I called the office of Timothy Hamill and Thomas Bothwell I was so impressed with the sincere compassion of the staff. I was seen right away and they have been leading me through the difficult L&I process these past few years. I don't know what I would have done without their expertise in these ...matters. Mr Hamill's assistant, Rebecca, is truly amazing and always up to date on my case. Mr Hamill has gone to bat for me, and I don't know what I would have done without him and his staff. They are such professionals and truly care about you as a person.

Beyond Excellence

Tim Hamill has gone above and beyond to make sure L & I does not close my claim. L & I sent me to one of their doctors who said there was nothing wrong with me, I can return to the job where I was injured and to close my claim. Tim got in contact with my doctor, who by the way did not agree with what... L & I's doctor said, and overturned L & I's decision to close me claim. I am now in physical therapy and having MRI next week to check what is wrong with my knee. Tim also got L & I to pay me time loss while my doctor tries to figure out what's wrong with my knee. I would recommend Tim. His staff is really nice too, which is always a good thing.

Possibilities

Tim Hamill has been my attorney since 2008, when he helped me reopen my claim. Tim and his partner, Thomas Bothwell, helped me get my Social Security Disability. Tim went to the Board with me and won my case, because L & I would not take responsibility for my bilateral hips that were the by product o...f my knee surgeries that were the cause of my work injury. Tim Hamill made sure I got my full time loss compensation benefits and will help you in the same way!!

Reasons

Tim Hamill has been my my attorney for about five years. His staff and assistant Rebecca have made it possible for me to be eligible for retraining and pursue a goal that interests me. Tim made sure I got the treatment my doctor said I needed. His office always returned my calls and always knew what ...was going on with my claim. If you would like an attorney to fight for what your entitled to, I would recommend Tim Hamill.

A work in progress

Timothy Hamill has been working on my case for 10+ years. Timothy and his assistant Elena and his whole staff have been the force that has prevented L&I from closing my case without addressing the issues. Every time L&I would send me to a Independent Medical exam with one of their Doctors (you know ...the ones that always say nothing is wrong) Timothy would make sure that L&I would fail in their attempt to close my case and get me the treatment that I still needed. Timothy will fight for you and make sure you get what you deserve and are owed.

Relationship: Co-worker

"I totally endorse Tim Hamill. For several years he and I were opposing counsel: back then, he was an Assistant Attorney General. Then, approximately 10 years ago, he agreed to become my law firm partner. We are now Bothwell & Hamill. Tim has built upon the skills and experience he acquired representing the state, followed by more than a decade in private practice. Now, he is a tremendous advocate and attorney for seriously injured workers with workers compensation claims. Tim is tireless. He also has a great reputation with all the judges for being ethical and someone who can be trusted. Tim is helped by an experienced and dedicated staff of legal assistants who are available to help Tim help his clients. Tim's energy, experience, contacts with doctors and others who also need to be a part of the team helping the client, and his dedication and excellent reputation help him get the best results for his clients. Tom Bothwell"
