Tim’s colleagues and clients look to him for fresh, creative ideas when faced with challenging circumstances involving a lot of moving parts.

Tim joined Sandberg Phoenix in 2002, leads the firm’s Appellate and Complex Litigation Team, and is Chair of Professional Development. In addition, he has served as chair of the firm’s Paralegal Group.

Focusing on complex litigation involving product liability claims, business disputes, appellate practice, and class actions, Tim frequently consults with trial attorneys in the courtroom and colleagues at the firm who regularly look to him for fresh, creative ideas when faced with unusual circumstances involving a lot of moving parts.
