His practice focuses on personal injury, employment and organization harassment and discrimination, and therapist malpractice. He specializes in cases involving sexual abuse and catastrophic mental and emotional damages.

“This is a proud day for me having spent years learning the ropes here at this firm,” said Mr. Tillis. “I’m most proud of the work we do here, fighting on behalf of people who have been treated horribly and getting them the justice they deserve.”
