Michael Timberlake

Best Advice Received: “When faced with making a tough decision, a good friend, a worthy opponent, and a great peacemaker advised me that the most important thing I can do is to ask “What is the right thing to do?”

Family Matters: “I’ve been married for over 20 years to a wonderful and patient woman and we are the proud parents of two sons.”

How Do Friends & Family Describe You: “They say I’m charming, forgiving, and respectful.”

Career Highlight: “I have represented hundreds of people who were injured and deserved fair compensation.  I am also proud to be the managing partner of a group of excellent lawyers who work hard to help people every day.”

As a young adult, Michael Timberlake met a Birmingham lawyer whose firm had been part of a number of high-profile personal injury cases. One of those was a product liability case against Ford Motor Company. That lawyer was involved in the discovery process that ultimately led to Ford being held liable. And he also inspired Michael’s decision to spend his career advocating for individuals who have been injured.

It is important to Michael that clients know he is not only a competent attorney, but he is also caring and trustworthy. Over his 29-year career, he has seen clients through some of the most difficult times in their lives. He is grateful for those opportunities and remains committed in his service to them.  

Outside of work, Michael finds inspiration through travel, new experiences, and nature. His hobbies include hiking, boating, and listening to live music.
