Timothy Garvey

When I hired McDermott law to represent me, Tim was assigned my case. I couldn't be more pleased. My appeal was built from the ground up with every piece strategically placed. Until now, I had no idea that insurance companies really are the way they are portrayed on film. Just plain sketchy. Tim remained diligent, asking questions and chasing leads. It was impressive.

My stock in trade as an attorney was finding and hiring the best attorney talent I could find for corporate clients. When I fell ill and became disabled, I felt like I knew how to find the right attorney to handle my disability claim. I did what I always do, sought recommendations from other attorneys I respect and did my own research and evaluation. Even though on some level I knew what I was doing, I can't take any real credit for this hire. I got lucky to find someone this good. Really lucky. Tim may be the absolute best litigator in this area on the planet. The best thing about hiring him is that he's exceptional in all areas - he's a superior legal writer, counselor, and winner. He's efficient, compassionate and a relentless advocate. It's extremely rare to find an attorney that not only does everything well, but at an exceptional level. Hire him.

Tim and Valerie were awesome! They were there for me during my appeal process for my denial of long term disibility. I know have peace of mind as The Hartford overturned their original denial and reinstated my benefits.

This firm handled my wife’s appeal when her LTD insurance carrier abruptly terminated her benefits. Tim Garvey represented her through the appeal process; he and his team were so helpful in gathering objective and accurate information for the appeal submission. There is no way we could have managed the process without their representation and still won the appeal. This firm is very thorough, organized and responsive.

Timothy was a pleasure to work with. He maintained a professionalism throughout the process. Eventually, as Timothy predicted, my insurance company settled. Through the process of meetings, planning, deposition and settlement Timothy was always punctual, courteous and professional. I will be recommending him to everyone I know who needs help with injuries or car crashes.

I was very grateful to Tim Garvey and the team at McDermott Law for handling my case. I was injured while doing contract working in Denver. As I recovered back home in Chicago, finding a law firm to represent me long distance was concerning. But Tim and the team were professional and caring about me and my case. They provided detailed information as to the process and what to expect. Tim cared about my recovery and answered all of my questions, so as a team we could make the right decision.
