Attorney Timothy Sullivan has a wide range of practical experience in the defense of criminal cases. His background also includes a focus on the specialized and unique training law enforcement relies upon in conducting a DUI investigation.
Tim grew up in a rural town on the New York and Pennsylvania border. He attended Lycoming College in Williamsport, Pennsylvania where he earned a degree in Economics. During his undergraduate education, he was elected by his peers as the president of his class, worked part-time as a paralegal for a local law firm, and served as a lector at St. Boniface Catholic Church.
After graduating from college with honors, Tim went on to attend Stetson University College of Law, where he was a Dean’s List student. As a law student, Tim gained valuable experience serving as a law clerk for a United States Federal Judge in Tampa. He also completed a clinical internship for the Pinellas County State Attorney’s Office. Tim served as a law clerk at a local criminal and DUI defense law firm.
Subsequent to graduating from law school, Tim was sworn in as a Pinellas County Assistant State Attorney. As a prosecutor, Tim learned street-level DUI enforcement tactics from the inside. He quickly rose through the ranks in the State Attorney’s office and was selected to run the North County Traffic court division. Tim was subsequently promoted to “Lead Trial Assistant” and supervised other Assistant State Attorneys. Tim’s experience as a supervisor at the State Attorney’s Office gave him valuable insight into the practical effects that a criminal record could have on an individual’s livelihood.
From 2011 through 2024, Tim served as an Attorney, Managing Partner, and Vice President of a local multi-office criminal and DUI defense law firm. After thirteen years working in and managing a multi-lawyer office, Tim determined that a solo law firm would be best suited to serve the needs of his sealing and expungement clients. Tim’s solo practice allows him to provide individualized attention to each client in an effort to secure the most favorable outcome in each case. During his career, Tim has supervised the sealing and expungement of more than 250 cases.

I would recommend Tim Sullivan to all my friends and family. When I made a hasty decision without fully understanding what I was doing.

Thank you for your diligence, kindness, and professionalism!

Tim Sullivan is a very professional and understanding attorney. He made my experience run very smoothly throughout my legal process. Tim and his team respond to questions and concerns very quickly. I was told by several people, including some that work in law enforcement, that I was “in good hands” when I mentioned Mr. Sullivan was representing me in my case and they were right. I would recommend him as a defense attorney to anyone looking.

Timothy Sullivan and his entire team are by far the best law firm in the Tampa Bay area! Tim’s knowledge on both sides of the law are seemingly unparalleled from any vantage point. Tim was the first proffesional that reached out to me at a desperate time in my life. Having Tim in my corner was like winning the lottery. I watched him take center stage of the courtroom. He literally took complete control of the room and never gave it up. Mr. Sullivan is most certainly the consummate professional. I needed a miracle and that’s exactly what I got. Mr. Sullivan and his knowledgeable staff are undeniably a dream come true!!!

I highly recommend Tim Sullivan as a criminal defense attorney… Tim walked me through every step, ensuring that no detail was missed, and was available at virtually any hour to personally handle any questions I had. Before choosing Tim, I spoke with other attorneys who told me that the outcome I was hoping for was impossible. However, when I spoke with Tim, he was realistic but also assured me that he would diligently work every angle to arrive at a solution I would be happy with. He followed through on his word and was able to negotiate with the state to have them agree to the terms I was hoping for, so my case was resolved the day I went to court… Overall, if you’re in need of a criminal defense attorney who genuinely has your best interests at heart, I cannot recommend Tim Sullivan and his team enough. Thank you, Tim, for your exceptional work!
