Tim's primary office is at Commerce Court W., 199 Bay Street, Suite 4000, Toronto, ON, M5L 1A9. In-person meetings are by appointment; a phone intake usually comes first.

Working with a new environmental attorney should feel structured. Here's how the first two conversations with Tim usually go, from the moment you request a consult to the day representation begins.

Tim discusses fees during intake so the arrangement fits the matter. Contingency, hourly, and flat-fee options are all common in environmental practice — ask which fits.

• How much does it cost to hire Tim for a environmental case?

  Cost depends on the type of matter, the fee model (contingency, flat, hourly), and how contested the case becomes. Tim walks through the likely range during the consult so there are no surprises.

• Does Tim offer a free consultation?

  Tim charges for the initial consult; that fee is credited toward representation if you retain Tim's office. Some environmental attorneys offer free consults — check Tim's current terms during booking.

• How long do environmental cases in this state typically take?

  Simple environmental matters can wrap in a few weeks; disputed cases can run 6–18 months from intake to resolution, longer if the matter goes to trial. Tim gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Tim take my case if I'm outside the area?

  Tim evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Tim's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

• What should I bring to my first meeting with Tim?

  Bring every document that touches the dispute: contracts, correspondence, police or medical reports, filed pleadings, invoices, photographs, insurance letters. Also bring a written timeline of what happened, in your own words. Tim will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

• Is Tim accepting new environmental clients right now?

  Tim's intake status shifts week to week. Submit the form; the office will confirm availability or refer the matter out.
