Law Office of Tim Phillips

"Tim is a great lawyer who is accessible and effective, as well as rooted in his local community! He is a strong advocate for his clients. When I felt alone and defeated dealing with a traumatic situation, he made me feel seen and heard. Tim ensured my entire legal process went as smoothly as possible, even when dealing with circumstances outside of our control. I was able to count on him for honest feedback and the best possible outcome. I highly recommend Tim!"

"Tim is an incredible attorney! The care and personal attention that he gave my case was remarkable. We won our case but even if we hadn't I would still be left with an excellent impression. If you're looking for a professional, determined, smart and sympathetic attorney then look no further."

"Tim is an exceptional trial attorney. Knowledgeable, extremely prepared, and willing to go the distance for his clients even if that means trying their case to a jury to achieve a fair result. There are two few competent trial attorneys in our profession - Tim is one of those rare few. You will not go wrong by retaining him."

"Tim defended me in an environmental justice case in 2021: I was the first to go to trial for a large action against Line 3. This was my first run-in with the law and I had no idea what to expect from the court system, or from a lawyer. Due to the imminence of graduate school starting, my case was expedited, and I became the first of over 200 activists to go to trial. The case moved much faster than we had anticipated. Tim helped me rally other activists to review discovery from the court, and he did the same with a team of lawyers. By the time the court came, we were more than ready, although it only been a couple of weeks to get everything together. I can only imagine the number of hours he spent, and I know that he was worth much more than we paid him. In court, I knew that my future was in his hands, but I also knew that it was safe. He did an exemplary job of defending me; my husband would later describe the courtroom as being like a thrilling sports game where the other team was repeatedly struck down and the ball was clearly in our court the entire time. We achieved a quick acquittal, which was seen as a victory by the movement. Tim made a big difference in my life, and my gratitude to him is on dying. For his dedication, compassion, and skill, he is worth his weight in gold."

"Tim is extremely knowledgeable, timely, communicative, flexible, and effective. He handled my case with extreme care and empathy, and did an excellent job of explaining complex legal processes in an understandable way. Tim made me feel safe and secure during a daunting legal process. I am so grateful for his work, it is so clear that both his mind and heart are invested in what he does. He is an excellent lawyer!"
