What Timoney Knox does

Timoney Knox LLP is a Pennsylvania-based, full-service law firm founded in 1921 and headquartered in Fort Washington, PA. The firm operates from four physical offices — Fort Washington, Bryn Mawr, and Wayne in Pennsylvania, plus Washington DC — and employs approximately 42 people, including 23 attorneys, 5 paralegals, 2 firm administrators, and 12 additional staff. It delivers legal services across eight core practice areas: Wills, Trusts and Estates; Business, Corporate and Tax; Commercial and Civil Litigation; Family Law; Zoning and Municipal Law; Employment Law; Consumer Protection; and Real Estate Law.

The firm is structured as a privately held limited liability partnership with no parent company or institutional owners; ownership sits with its partners, led by Managing Partner Kevin D. Birkhead, who was elevated to the role in 2025 after joining the firm in 2013. Underlying technology is described as standard legal-practice software for document management, case management, and client communication, with no proprietary platform or AI/ML capability disclosed. The revenue model is professional services hourly billing, engagement-based, with no publicly disclosed pricing and client acquisition driven primarily by referrals, professional reputation, community presence, and direct outreach.

Customer segments span individuals and families (estate planning, family law), business owners and companies across industries including oil and gas, healthcare, construction, real estate development, and technology, municipal governments (townships, boroughs, water/sewer authorities) in southeastern Pennsylvania, and non-profit organizations. Five attorneys are recognized in the 2026 Best Lawyers in America edition, six were named Super Lawyers for 2024-2026, and seven practice areas were ranked in the U.S. News Best Law Firms 2023 edition. Effective July 1, 2026, the firm is discontinuing its Educational Law and Students' Rights practice, narrowing the portfolio to seven practice areas.
