Shakeia Nicholson
One of the Best Defense Attorneys
Tim Tarpey, in my opinion, is one of the best defense attorneys in the city of Philadelphia. He represented me in a situation that looked honestly bleak from my perspective. His communication and willingness to understand, gain facts, and give you his honest feedback on what is happening made it a bit easier to navigate the situation. Due to his knowledge and understanding of practicing for over +15 years, and professional but stoic demeanor, I retained my freedom and we proved my innocence. I’m genuinely grateful to have selected Tarpey as my representation. You want Tarpey and Lloyd, Esq. representing you, they get the job done!

Timothy Tarpey is the best criminal defense lawyer around. He helped my family tremendously with serious charges that could result in life in prison, but Tim took it to trial and got his client acquitted on all charges! He’s a very aggressive trial attorney, and I appreciate him for bringing my family back together. I can’t thank him enough.

Jim Lloyd Restored His Life
Jim Lloyd is a top defense attorney. Took over a case from another well-known city attorney for a family member who was falsely accused and won the case and restored his life back. If I could give him 10 stars, I would!
Richard Santiago
James Earned My Trust and Confidence
James Lloyd is a technician in the courtroom. He fought for me the entire time he was assigned to my case and made sure that I knew everything I needed to every step of the way. His knowledge of the law and strategy played a major role in my acquittal, and I could not be happier with how he handled things. After being handled poorly by a previous attorney, I didn’t know if there was anybody willing to put their trust and confidence in me, but James earned my trust and confidence from the very first conversation and held onto it with a tight grip every time I needed him. I’d recommend him to anybody needing exceptional representation.
Rich Santiago

What is criminal defense?
Criminal defense is the legal representation provided to individuals or entities charged with criminal conduct. It involves protecting the rights of the accused, negotiating plea deals, and providing guidance through the legal system. Our goal is to ensure the best possible outcome for the client.
What should I bring to my first meeting?
Bring any relevant documents such as police reports, court notices, bail papers, and correspondence related to your case. It's also helpful to write down your recollection of events and any questions you have. This information aids us in understanding your case and designing a defense plan.
When should I contact a defense attorney?
Contact a defense attorney as soon as you are aware of an investigation or charges against you. The earlier an attorney is involved, the better they can prepare your defense. Early involvement also helps protect your rights during investigations and hearings.
