This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

please read

hello, my name is Tommy and I was at the trial day one for Mr. Daly... I saw the unethical corruption that the prosecutor tried to present to the jury .. I was dumfounded that an officer of 30 years with zero write ups on his name was found guilty by a jury and he has to now have this on his record f...or the rest of his life.. UNBELIEVABLE. None the less, Timothy Hunsaker did a dang good job by defending Officer Daly and Mr. Hunsaker is a beast in the court room..

T.J. Is a fantastic attorney. Ethical, smart and dedicated.

TJ represented me in a very complex and intricate case involving government corruption. I was a 30 year police officer who began calling out corruption within the Desoto Missouri Police Department. The chief of police retaliated against me on lawfully terminating me then having me criminally charged ...for use of force that was legitimate and trained.. Unfortunately, Jefferson County is known for corruption and the “good boy system“. So TJ had his work cut out for him. After four years of back-and-forth and several attempts by the Jefferson County Missouri prosecuting attorney’s office and intimidating me. I took my case to a jury trial. TJ was very instrumental and keeping me updated on everything. He listened and he conducted himself very ethically around people who wouldn’t know what the word “ethics“ are. During the trial TJ was quick to catch one of the states witnesses, a captain with the Jefferson County Missouri sheriffs department, who is the head of their detective bureau, perjuring himself on the stand. Unfortunately, as things go in Jefferson County, the jury did not render the verdict we wished, but it could’ve been much worse. I was charged with one count of felony assault and two counts of misdemeanor assault. TJ with the assistance of. Breanne Besheer was able to successfully argue my case, and I was not convicted of a felony just misdemeanors. It’s not the outcome we all wanted, but of course we all looked at that as a win for avoiding the felony. As stated, this case was very complex and intricate and involved corruption at the highest levels of Jefferson County government and the De Soto, Missouri Police Department. if you’re looking for an attorney who actually cares and conducts himself with ethics and will fight strong for you I would urge you to contact TJ Hunsecker.

Exceptional Legal Representation

I cannot thank TJ Hunsaker enough for his exceptional work in my case. Facing false accusation was one of the most challenging and stressful experiences of my life. From our very first meeting, TJ demonstrated compassion, professionalism, and a deep understanding of the legal system. He thoroughly... investigated every aspect of my case, leaving no stone unturned. He meticulously gathered evidence, identified inconsistencies in the accusations, and built a strong defense that ultimately proved my innocence. His courtroom presence was commanding and confident, and his ability to present the facts with clarity and precision was remarkable. Beyond his legal expertise, TJ was always available to address my concerns and keep me informed throughout the process. He genuinely cared about my well-being and provided the reassurance I needed during such a difficult time. Thanks to TJ, my name has been cleared, and I can move forward with my life. If you are looking for a dedicated and skilled attorney who will fight tirelessly for your rights, I highly recommend Timothy Joseph Hunsaker, he is an outstanding lawyer.
