Tim Lawn spent the first seven years of his career representing physicians in malpractice cases. In 1996, Tim “switched sides” and has devoted the past 22 years representing those who have suffered serious injuries or death as a result of the wrongful acts of others. He has secured multimillion-dollar verdicts and settlements throughout the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for clients injured or killed by medical malpractice, defective products, motor vehicle accidents, and workplace injuries. Tim’s recent verdict of $40.2 million on a medical malpractice case is believed to be the largest personal injury verdict ever awarded by a jury in Delaware County, PA.

Mr. Lawn has repeatedly been voted by lawyers to be one of the Top 100 SuperLawyers in Pennsylvania.  He has been listed in Best Lawyers in America every year since 2010. He is a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers, a collection of trial lawyers from across North America whose membership is by invitation only extended to those who have demonstrated exceptional courtroom skill and the highest standards of professionalism and ethics.  He also is a member of The American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA), another national legal society whose membership is limited to civil trial lawyers recognized for their courtroom skill. He served as President of the Eastern Pennsylvania ABOTA Chapter in 2013. Presently, Tim is Vice-President of the Philadelphia Trial Lawyers Association and will be inducted as President in July 2018.  Recognized as an excellent teacher of courtroom advocacy skills, Tim spent 10 years teaching advanced trial advocacy at Beasley Law School of Temple University, and he is frequently asked to give seminars and presentations for other lawyers. Along with Peter Hoffman, a veteran civil defense lawyer, Tim provides the Civil Law Update presentation to trial judges from across the Commonwealth at the bi-annual Pennsylvania State Conference of Trial Judges.

Tim serves as the Chair of the Board of Directors of the Dave Palmer Memorial Foundation, a tax-exempt public charity that he founded in 1992. Since its inception, the Foundation has provided close to a half million dollars of financial assistance to children who have lost a parent to an untimely death. Tim also is a member of the Board of Directors of Frankie’s World Foundation, a daycare provider for children with medical needs in North Philadelphia.
