About Tim
After spending this time representing large companies, Tim decided to direct his energy and experience fighting these companies on behalf of the individual. In mid-2004, Tim started The Upton Law Firm and has focused all of his attention on representing “individuals” with great success. He has a true passion for assisting the “little guy” against these large organizations. Tim’s spectrum of legal services was broadened in 2004 and he began fighting for the rights of those charged with crimes by the federal and state authorities in Louisiana. He has equal amounts of success in this area of law as well.
Indeed, Tim now knows that his mission in life is to represent the individual and protect his/her rights. If you feel that you have been wronged in any way, you are up against a large organization without representation or just need to learn about your rights, please call The Upton Law Firm, LLC and Tim will take pleasure in personally advising you and representing you if you see fit.
Tim is currently admitted to practice in all state courts in Louisiana and federal court in the Eastern and Middle Districts of Louisiana. He is currently a member of the Louisiana State Bar, the New Orleans Bar Association, the Covington Bar Association, the American Trial Lawyers Association, The Louisiana Association for Justice, and the Louisiana Association of Criminal Defense Attorneys. His areas of practice are criminal defense, personal injury, and general civil litigation.
