Con artist

Supremely incompetent and when fired him after no getting anything done he refused to give my money back. I got a letter this week from the Missouri disciplinary committee saying he's been disbarred and I'm just happy knowing he won't be able to do this to any other people

Excellent Attorney

Timothy Starosta is very knowledgeable. I came in for help with my finances and he helped me thru them. I thought I was going to have to file bankruptcy and by the time we were finished it was decided that I didn't have to do that after all. I highly recommend him as an attorney with all your needs. ...He will not lead you in the wrong direction. I will never have to seek another attorney again.

Saved me BIG TIME!

I had consulted Tim on a few occasions for minor things and he was always very knowledgeable, timely and helpful. When I had a serious mishap with the law, I didn't know who else to call, so I called Tim. He met with me immediately and made sure I knew exactly what to do and not to do. I am convin...ced that it was Tim's advice and quick response that saved me from any charges or fines. I believe him to be of the highest moral fiber and would strongly recommend him to anyone. Most importantly, I believe that if he could not help me, Tim would be honest and tell me rather than just take my money like so many others might.
