    Review Timothy Nault

    Excellent Results!!

    5.0 stars

    Posted by

    Mr. Nault displayed excellent skill in arguing my case far exceeding my expectations. I would not hesitate to recommend him. I had a difficult appeal that I did not feel confident could be won, but Mr. Nault was successful in defending my case and convincing the Judge to reverse the trial court's finding.
