ABOUT TIMOTHY COMSTOCK
MEET TIMOTHY COMSTOCK
Tim Comstock, originally from San Diego, California, relocated to Oregon at the age of 11 and has lived in the state ever since. He made history as the first person in his immediate family to graduate not only from college but also from graduate school. A passionate supporter of the University of Oregon, Tim’s family has deep roots in the institution—his grandfather was the game clock operator for various U of O athletic teams for over 40 years. Tim enjoys attending U of O football, basketball, and baseball / softball games. Tim's graduation from the University of Oregon in 2019 was a moment of immense pride for his family. As an attorney, Tim is deeply committed to helping others, particularly during life’s most challenging and emotional times. His interest in the law was sparked during his teenage years, amidst his parents’ highly contested (high conflict) divorce. He recalls feeling overwhelmed and without an advocate as he navigated the difficulties of the situation with his younger brother. This experience ignited his passion for legal advocacy, a passion that only deepened during his academic journey as he helped friends with challenges like difficult roommates, problematic landlords, and divorcing parents. After earning his degree from the University of Oregon, Tim worked with a local nonprofit organization that provided support for adults and children with developmental disabilities. He served as both a caregiver and case coordinator, connecting families with essential resources. It was during this time that Tim saw firsthand the importance of legal advocacy for vulnerable individuals and realized that, like himself and his brother, many people lacked the support they needed during critical moments in their lives. This realization drove him to pursue a legal career with the goal of making a meaningful difference in the lives of others. In 2019, he enrolled at Willamette University College of Law, graduating Cum Laude in 2022 with additional high honors in the Clinical Law programs. Outside of his legal career, Tim leads a dynamic and fulfilling life. In addition to being a devoted father to his two young children, Tim is working toward earning his private pilot’s license. He is also a film enthusiast with a special love for the movie theater experience, enjoys exploring new restaurants, and has a deep passion for cars. An avid traveler, Tim enjoys discovering new places and embracing the open road on road trips. |
Tim realized that, like him and his brother during their parents’ divorce, individuals like those he was helping did not always have an advocate on their side, and he became determined to make a difference. |
