Testimonials
“I OWE MY LIFE TO THIS MAN – NOT GUILTY! I work in the criminal justice field and was falsely accused of a very serious “strike” felony – my life and career were about to be ruined. Because of my job I know there are different types of lawyers: great, good, average, and flat-out bad. After researching a lot of criminal lawyers and talking with co-workers I chose Tim. During my trial Tim tore apart the many witnesses who testified against me and convinced the jury of my innocence! Words cannot express how lucky I was to have Tim on my side. As far as lawyers go, he is BEYOND GREAT! Thank you, Tim!”
“I was served with a protection order from my soon to be ex wife that I had been with for 40 plus years. Never seen it coming. I was totally lost. When I read the order I realized she was out to destroy me. Thank God I found Mr. Healy. I walked into his office and his professional team made me feel like family. They wanted to hear every detail about my situation. They were in no hurry. I then realized I had the right people on my side. Thanks Tim for fighting so hard for me. Two parts to my case, and already the first part was thrown out, thanks to Tim and his staff of professionals. Major thanks’ to Tim, Michelle, Tyler, and Quinita. Thanks so much for listening to me and being on my side when I had no one else. If you need help like I did, contact Timothy Healy. Thanks Tim.”
“I hired this firm through a friend referral and it was the best decision I made. This firm was knowledgeable, prepared, confident and communicated with me very closely. I was very afraid of the court system and didn’t understand the process. Duncan put me at ease and handled my case in the best possible manner. My case was dismissed! I owe my life to this firm and would recommend Mr. Healy and his team of attorneys to anyone in need of serious help.”
