Josef Timlichman is an established personal injury and business law attorney serving clients across Southern Florida. Working from his offices at Josef Timlichman Law in Hollywood, Florida, he fights for victims of catastrophic motor vehicle crashes and slip-and-fall accidents to secure suitable recovery while aggressively prosecuting complex commercial disputes involving fraud, civil conspiracy and tortious interference. His approach combines aggressive trial tactics with strategic transactional counsel to secure record-breaking verdicts.
Upon completing his bachelor’s degree in business management and finance from Baruch College, Mr. Timlichman proceeded to pursue his law degree at St. Thomas University College of Law. Honing his trial and advocacy skills at law school, he received his Juris Doctor and ultimately obtained admission to The Florida Bar in 2016. Dedicating his practice to business and personal injury law, he leverages his background in business and finance to navigate complex commercial litigation, secure financial recoveries for injury victims and craft strategic solutions for his clients' long-term success.
Throughout his career, Mr. Timlichman has fought alongside numerous clients, helping them reach their legal goals efficiently and effectively. Notably, he secured a $47.83 million verdict, including $28 million in punitive damages, for a broker whose $84,000 commission was fraudulently diverted by a luxury real estate buyer. This landmark ruling sets a groundbreaking legal precedent against fraudulent schemes aimed at bypassing real estate broker fees.
A fluent speaker in English and Russian, Mr. Timlichman prioritizes communication and personalization to build trusting, collaborative relationships with every client. By breaking down complex legal jargon into clear, actionable advice, he ensures clients fully understand their rights at every stage.
