About Timothy A.
Timothy A. Berger is an attorney whose career has been rooted in Pennsylvania courts and bar associations for more than three decades. He studied literature and politics before turning to the law. He has maintained steady ties to the legal community in Delaware County and statewide since his entry into the profession.
Berger earned his Bachelor of Arts from Swarthmore College in 1988, where he majored in English Literature and took a minor in Political Science. He went on to attend Temple University Beasley School of Law, receiving his Juris Doctor in 1994. Those academic choices framed a path from humanities and civic study into the practice of law.
After law school, Berger moved into practice in Pennsylvania. He is admitted to practice in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and is authorized to appear before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Those admissions have enabled him to handle matters across both state and federal forums, and to pursue appeals in the regional federal appellate court when cases required it.
Professional membership has been a consistent part of Berger’s career. He has held membership in the Delaware County Bar Association since 1994 and remains active there. He is also a member of the Pennsylvania Bar Association and the Pennsylvania State Bar. Those affiliations reflect steady involvement in local and state legal communities over many years.
Throughout his career Berger has worked in the legal environment that surrounds Delaware County and the greater Philadelphia region. He has experience taking cases to trial-level courts and, when necessary, into the federal appellate system. Colleagues describe him as a lawyer who favors clear analysis and attention to procedural detail when preparing filings and arguments for court.
Berger’s practice continues in Pennsylvania. He represents clients in matters brought in state trial courts and, when appeals are warranted, before the Third Circuit. He maintains an active practice handling litigation and appellate matters in the region.
