TIMOTHY M. FRIEDRICHSEN
Tim is the founder and principal shareholder of Amicus Law Group, PC. He seeks to help clients minimize their legal, financial and tax exposure, while creating estate plans that carry out their goals for financial and personal legacies for their families and organizations that are important to them. Many of his clients are closely held businesses and their owners, and Tim leads the firm’s effort to integrate tax and estate planning into advice on business formation, real estate investments, transaction consulting and ownership succession. As the owner of a law firm for more than 20 years, he has real-world experience addressing issues and concerns that are similar to those faced by the firm’s business-owner clients.
Tim has nearly 40 years of experience providing services to clients, with a particular and rare combination of legal and accounting knowledge and skills that help address multiple issues facing clients. A graduate with distinction from the University of Iowa College of Law, Tim has been in private practice since 1985, beginning his career as a tax advisor at the public accounting firm of Deloitte and Touche. He opened his own practice in 1994 and founded Amicus Law Group in 2001. He is admitted to practice law in the state of Washington.
Tim believes strongly in giving back to his community, having held leadership positions in a number of nonprofit organizations and helping several others with gift giving strategies for their supporters. He feels blessed to have healthy children and a new grandchild to spend time with and watch grow.
