  • I recommend Timothy Crawford.
  • Timothy handled my Elder Law matter.
  • I have previously worked with 3-5 lawyers.
Client Review:
It always takes a crisis before we realize how unprepared we really are.

How much is knowledge worth to you? I can tell you from experience it is not a good feeling to be suddenly caught off guard, unprepared and uninformed.

The wealth of information provided by Tim Crawford and his staff was an eye opener for me. Not only did they act quickly in my time of family crisis, they went the extra miles (literally) by making a trip to the hospital. Tim and his staff made me feel that my crisis was the most important task of the day.

I would strongly urge anyone to seek out Tim’s expertise. Be prepared, be informed and know your options so you can protect what you’ve worked so hard to attain.

Client Review:
Being an executor for my moms estate, I learned a good lesson on what not to do with my assets and estate planning. Unfortunately the lawyer I hired at the time was not only clueless, he was a crook who ended up in jail.

That experience left a bad taste in my mouth for attorneys. I finally settled on Tim for our estate planning after referral from my in-laws. I could not have been happier. He is not only knowledgeable, he is very good at explaining complex issues. He presents your options in ways you can understand and is vert patient.

He also has very good plans for future changes resulting from changes in your life or the lives of your kids/grandkids. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

Client Review:
What I really liked about this experience was the time he took to explain the different choices and which was the best for us. He was patient and really listened while making good eye contact. His knowledge in Power of Attorney and Living trusts was superior to any previous attorneys we have used. Answered all our questions in a manner we could understand. While we may not remember all the details, we know everything is there in black and white to be executed in the best possible senario for our needs. We highly recommend him.

Client Review:
When my mother was diagnoised with Alzheimers and would most likely need extensive long-term care, our family knew we needed to protect the family assets to provide funds in case my elderly father needed care as well. As it turned out, my father got cancer after my mother entered the nursing home, and the children were so grateful to have sufficient funds to provide good care for my father.
Atty. Tim Crawford provided advice and documentation for my Dad on "Right to Change your Mind" Agreement to protect assets for their home as well as other documentation to protect assets as my mother entered the nursing home. All legal proceededings occurred exactly as Atty. Crawford indicated. Our family was very thankful to have such excellent legal advice and documentation.
