This Timothy M Sweet is a complete fraud. A con-man who if you ask to do the work you want him to do, or consider a different approach, or answer a question who gets annoyed and with a little bit of time the hidden anger and fear comes out like a monster being strangled in a host of personal and emotional issues. It will break your heart until you remember that he is your attorney and representing you. Less than 36 hours to appearing in front of the Judge he went into an absolute, violent tantrum, screaming and threatening me and charging me out of his office - all because we were meeting on a Sunday and I made a comment that I wanted to keep it short so I could go do other things that day. Approximately, this was his top of the lungs response: "YOU HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO! WHAT ABOUT ME? I'M HERE WITH YOU ON A SUNDAY AND I COULD BE HOME. YOU UNGRATEFUL #@#%! GET OUT OF HERE. GET OUT. I WILL CALL THE POLICE. YOU F&%&$ A&%4” Read all the reviews on-line about him and look between the lines carefully. On most review platforms he will have something like forty-two 5-STAR reviews but only 6 of them are actually clients and of those 6 least 2 had my experience. All the other reviews come from members of a business group he probably belongs to. They might gather monthly, socialize, and then write great reviews of each other, careful not to lie, and praising him as a person of character. No one is lying and I assume he can be charming in such a setting but none of them know him outside a gathering, and they are all together for the same reason anyway: to support each other in countering on-line Ratings. Look for the small disclaimer on those reviews that say, in small print, that the reviewer has not actually hired him or worked with him professionally. Like I said, a fraud, a con. This terrible lawyer lied and deceived me. Did not deliver me papers or notifications from the other attorney so when I appeared that day in court, without a lawyer representing me, the judge told me I could be held in contempt because of my failing to respond to the other attorneys’ requests. The irony being I had actually given Tim all those materials 2 months earlier. He just never delivered them. He failed to issue any Discovery questions to my Ex despite my constant urging, failed to try and uncover hidden income and assets I told him existed, and in the end, cost me a lot of money in the divorce. He is impossible to reach or get a return call. On average it is 5 days of calls, texts and emails before you hear from him and on one occasion it was 12 days; and another 10 days. He explains absolutely nothing to you and when you ask, he gets put out and narrows his eyes and starts questioning you as though you are an idiot. You can sit at his desk and he will never look up at you. He will get up while you are talking to him and just suddenly walk out of his office, work his cell phone, and in general lets it be known by how he will gaze off and not respond to what you are asking or saying that the guy just doesn't listen. You have to remind him of what he told you and what you told him, and he really doesn't give a hoot to comment or clarify. All you might get if you push the issue is one of his nasty little narrow eyed looks to confirm his disgust. Sweet’s website used to boast that his experience had allowed him to hear and see it all, to know the judges and the courts, and how if you hired him, he would tell you what is going to happen, how he knows in advance how the judge will rule, and how he will get you through this with dignity. After he quit on me and received an email from me pointing out how all those particular promises were huge lies, he went and removed all of it and now has a home page with a simple general statement. No claims of what he knows he does not do. Stay clear of him fellow friends or you could end up getting twisted up in all the lies, incompetence, and chains he carries.

So far my experience with Tim has been great. He has been attentive and helpful . He is sometimes hard to get in touch with but he is a lawyer and money doesn't make itself. When I do speak with him it's time well spent. So thank you Sweet law and I look forward to winning this case with you ! Also brittBriis helpful and easy to talk to and was helpful and attentive! To everyone bad mouthing him on here you get what you give. Understand he has a job to do to !

Tim Sweet and Brittany Carr are awesome great care for there case always available to meet and talk about what happens next. I highly recommend Tim Sweet.

Very affordable and honest, showed up on time on all the hearings, I went for him because my previous lawyer was ripping me off, to put into perspective, Mr. Sweet charged me less for the entire case which lasted a little over a year than my previous lawyer charged me for the first week of the same case. One of the things I learned from him is that sometimes the best you can do is to do nothing. Overall he was exactly what I was looking for and I'm happy with his services which ultimately resulted in getting my children back home and the case closed. Thank you Mr. Sweet!

Timothy sweet and Brittany both helped me with my case and I couldn’t be happier with how they treated me. Answered every single one of my questions even though I had so many! I would recommend them to anyone and everyone!

Tim has been my lawyer for quite a while now and he has been nothing but the best. I have never had an issue with Tim and he is always working his hardest to make sure my case is moving forward positively. He has changed my life and the lives of my kids for the better and I don’t know how to thank him. He has never looked at me like a paycheck and I appreciate his hard work and patience. Without him I don’t know what my life would be like.

Tim asks the hard questions and shows a general caring for the situation. He will ask you how you want to handle the situation and then devise a plan that he will propose to you that you can change as you wish while giving the pros and cons to each choice you make. Only down side is every second of contact including voicemails or texts will be itemized on your invoice. The bill still isnt enough to give less than 5 stars. I would use him again in the future and recommend him to others.

Timothy Sweet was helpful and quick to respond when I had any questions for him regarding my case. During a very hard time for our family Mr. Sweet remained calm and optomistic that we would reach the outcome we were hoping for and with his expertise we did just that. In the future I will not hesitate to call on Mr. Sweet for any further family court issues. Thank you Mr. Sweet for all your help!

Over the past few months I’ve had the pleasure of having Mr. Sweet represent me in my child custody case. Throughout this case Mr. Sweet has been nothing but understanding and patient. I appreciate the energy he put towards this case and I’d recommend him for anyone who’s as anxious/frantic as I am.

Timothy has been very supportive and resourceful during my divorce process. He has been very patient and responsive from day one. He is very knowledgeable about Rhode Island Divorce Law. He has my long-term interest in mind beyond the divorce. He helped me connect with specialists to work on the financial part of the process. The fee and the interactions with him reflect the quote on his website: "You are Not A Bill. You are A Person." I am very grateful to have him as my lawyer.

Very supportive and actually listens to concerns.
