Timothy M. Summers

Tim has been a proud resident of Vancouver Island for over 20 years, and he deeply appreciates all that the island has to offer. Prior to making the Island his home, Tim lived in several different parts of Canada, including Ontario, Alberta, Nunavut, and the Lower Mainland.

Tim has a focus in civil and construction litigation, representing companies, developers, contractors, and property owners in complex disputes and contract enforcement. His practice also encompasses broader tort matters, including personal injury claims. In addition to his litigation work, Tim provides some solicitor services, including development-related matters such as land use, rezoning, conveyancing, and project financing. Tim has experience in property assessment matters including complex and industrial properties. Tim’s work takes him across British Columbia, and he has represented clients from the Lower Mainland, the Okanagan, northern BC, and Haida Gwaii. With a commitment to serving the needs of his clients, Tim is happy to discuss taking on legal cases from any part of the province.

Tim’s appreciation for the importance of community comes from his upbringing in a large family. Prior to starting his legal practice, Tim operated a heritage painting business, which fuelled a passion for old buildings and local history. In his free time, Tim enjoys reading, traveling, and admiring obscure cars.
