Tim started his career as a litigator in 2008. For the next 7 years he represented national corporations, individual defendants, and small companies in lawsuits throughout Missouri, including 4 years with one of the nations 150 largest law firms. In 2015, he founded a boutique litigation firm focusing on plaintiff's injury law (only representing the victims) and business conflicts. As a plaintiff's attorney he has recovered millions on behalf of his clients.

 

In 2018 Tim was recognized by the American Institute of Personal Injury Attorneys as a 10 Best High Verdict and Settlement Winners for Missouri. He has been named to the National Association of Distinguished Counsel as the Top 1% for 4 of the last 5 years. Tim is a lifetime member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, a group reserved for attorneys who have been primary counsel for the plaintiff in at least one case that was resolved for over a million dollars. He has been recognized by Thompson Reuters as a "Super Lawyer" every year since 2015 and served as the Co-Chair of the Missouri Bar Association Torts and Transportation Committee from 2018-2022.

In 2023, Tim opened the Law Office of Tim Etzkorn to focus on lawsuits and small businesses. We still take cases where someone has been injured and wronged, but we have added a focus on helping local small businesses protect themselves and their customers before lawsuits need to be filed. Our experience as litigators allows us to identify these crucial and expensive issues before they become a problem.
