Timothy F. Burr began his legal career in New Orleans in 1979 as an attorney in the maritime section of McGlinchey Stafford. He became a Director in 1983 and in 1987 formed GJTBS with John Galloway, Mike Johnson, and Jim Tompkins. Over the years, Tim has litigated hundreds of cases and has considerable trial experience in State and Federal Courts throughout the Gulf South, obtaining many favorable verdicts and judgments for the Firm’s clients. In 1995, Tim was selected to become the Firm’s Managing Director and during his tenure, the Firm grew to 7 offices in 5 States and became widely diversified in its practice areas as well.

In 1996, Tim moved with his family to the Pensacola Bay area to head up the Firm’s first Florida office. He continued to practice in Louisiana, Texas, and Florida while serving the Firm as Managing Director until 2005 when he elected to devote more time to family and community activities, and during work to concentrate on the Firm’s Florida operations. He now serves as a member of the Firm’s overall Management Group and he continues to manage cases primarily in the maritime, real estate, products liability, and professional liability arenas. For over 20 years he has maintained Martindale Hubbell’s highest ratings for competence and ethics: AV.
