• How much does it cost to hire Timothy for a class action case?

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

• Does Timothy offer a free consultation?

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

• How long do class action cases in Louisiana typically take?

  Simple class action 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. Timothy gives a realistic estimate for your facts at the consult — vague answers here are a red flag.

• Can Timothy take my case if I'm outside Houma?

  Timothy is licensed in Louisiana. Matters governed by Louisiana law are the natural fit. Out-of-state matters are handled case-by-case, sometimes with local co-counsel. Ask during intake — Timothy will tell you if the case is a fit or refer you to someone closer to your court.

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

  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. Timothy will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.

• Is Timothy accepting new class action clients right now?

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