Born and raised in Oklahoma, Tim Gilpin is an attorney who believes in serving his community. After losing his father at just 11 years old, Tim worked his way through college and law school, attending George Washington University before moving on to the University of Tulsa Law School.

He worked for several Tulsa law firms, putting together settlements and trying personal injury and business cases from both sides of the docket before moving on to proudly serve in the Oklahoma state Attorney General’s office under then-Attorney General Robert Henry as an Assistant Attorney General.
