WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"Tim is top notch in his field. We appreciate how well connected and responsive to our needs he always is."

MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"My philosophy regarding client service is three-fold. First, listen to your client’s needs and don’t anticipate what they’re looking for in terms of legal services. Your goal as an attorney is to help them solve their problems, not what you believe their problems are. Once you have that in your grasp, then communicate with your client in a way that anyone can understand. Don’t use legalese or other jargon – regardless of the client’s position. And finally, don’t be afraid to ask for feedback or criticism – that’s the only way you can really grow a relationship with your clients. "
