Timlin & Rye

Jeffrey. J. Timlin

MELISSA J. RYE

I have always been drawn to the law

and how it can have an impact on shaping our society.
I love being able to assist people in finding resolution to their complicated and seemly overwhelming situations. Being a lawyer allows me to look at the world in a different way.

With each and every day I become a better attorney and cherish the great responsibility of helping individuals with their problems. It is important for me that people feel there is someone who cares about them and who will work hard to provide a favorable outcome in their situation.

I attended Michigan State University, where I received my Bachelor of Science degree in 1979. I went on to continue my studies at Thomas M. Cooley Law School and graduated in September, 1982. Completing law school, I took a position in the Detroit Prosecutors Office, where I found my passion for litigation. In 1984, I moved to Colorado and took a position as a law clerk for Phillip Lowery, P.C. and later that year opened my own law practice specializing in criminal litigation, Dependency and Neglect Cases and all aspects of family law.

testimonials

Read what our clients have to say about their experience working with our team.
“We found our experience with the law office of Jeffery Timlin to be both rewarding and fulfilling.  Our family was attempting to address some relatively significant concerns with our child’s school and school district.  Their services gave true meaning to the phrase counselor at law. The insightful and meaningful guidance we received really helped us make some difficult decisions.  We felt supported and ultimately they were instrumental in our family efficiently reaching a satisfactory resolution.”

Jeff Timlin is a wonderful attorney. He has represented my family for several years in all different aspects of the law. I have recommended him to several others, something I never do. He is very knowledgeable and never promises what he can’t deliver. His office staff is also the best, taking time to answer my questions and reassure me. They do not overstep, if they are not sure of an answer they find out. He also has a kind quiet demeanor that is very reassuring, it’s obvious from the get go he knows what he is doing.
