About Timothy P
Timothy P Horan began his professional path in public service and transitioned into law after several years in front-line roles. He earned a B.S. in Criminal Justice and Sociology from Fitchburg State College in 1995, after beginning studies there in 1991. He returned to school at New England Law | Boston, where he completed his J.D. in 2003.
His early work placed him inside the systems that touch both victims and regulated professionals. In 1995 he served as a victim advocate and analyst at the Bristol County District Lawyer's Office, a role that involved supporting people through criminal process and gathering information used in prosecutions. In 1997 he worked as an investigator and prosecutor for the Division of Professional Licensure, handling cases that involved alleged violations of professional standards and licensing rules.
Those positions gave him a practical view of regulatory enforcement and the human side of legal disputes. They also preceded his formal legal education, so he arrived at law school with direct experience in investigations and victim services. After earning his J.D., he affiliated with local bar groups, joining both the Bristol County Bar Association and the New Bedford Bar Association in 2004, memberships he maintains.
Horan also holds a real estate broker certification from the Division of Professional Licensure. That credential complements his background in licensing and regulatory matters. Over time his work has involved issues that cross criminal, regulatory and transactional lines, including administrative hearings and matters tied to professional conduct.
He is licensed to practice in Massachusetts and participates in county bar activities. His combination of investigative experience and a broker's license gives him an unusual mix of skills for a Massachusetts practitioner. Colleagues describe him as someone who knows how investigations unfold and how licensing agencies operate, and who applies that knowledge in advising clients.
Today he practices in Massachusetts and is active in the local legal community. His work draws on experience in professional licensing, investigative procedure and real estate licensing and transactions. He maintains a practice that handles matters connected to those areas in the Massachusetts courts and administrative forums.
