About

I graduated from the University of Iowa on an Air Force ROTC scholarship and was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant on May 14, 1988. I formally entered the United States Air Force as a Judge Advocate on Active Duty in 1991 after graduating from IIT Chicago-Kent College of Law on the educational delay I was granted. In 1994, I was transferred to the Office of the Area Defense Counsel (ADC) at Peterson Air Force Base. As an ADC my responsibilities were defending active duty Air Force members and Air Force Academycadets stationed at Peterson Air Force Base as well as Falcon Air Force Base (nowSchriever Air Force Base), Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Base and theUnited States Air Force Academy. In 1995, i left active duty and joined the Air Force Reserves. It was at that time that I accepted a position with the Office of the District Attorney, Fourth Judicial District (El Paso and Teller Counties) as a Deputy District Attorney. During my time there, I prosecuted cases ranging from drunk driving offenses to homicide. For a time, I was the only Deputy District Attorney working full-time in theTeller County Office in Cripple Creek, Colorado. In 1997, I left the Office of the District Attorney and started my own practice, now The Bussey Law Firm, P.C., concentrated on criminal defense.I handle clients in state and local courts as well as federal and military courts.

I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome of my case and the service I received during the process from start to finish. Tim Bussey was a strong negotiator and advocate who truly had my best interests at heart and took a genuine interest in my case. Tim and his staff were always available as I had questions and went above and beyond in making sure I got a fair settlement. Thanks again for all the hard work.

Mr Bussey is a excellent choice. He started working my case immediately. His expertise and reputation lead the DA to immediately drop my case and it was dismissed with prejudice. When the military picked up my case he recommended a military lawyer who fought my case in court and I was acquitted of all charges. Do not hesitate to retain Mr Bussey. In a battle to save your life and reputation he is worth every penny. Thank you Mr. Bussey.

I hired Tim Bussey to represent me in a difficult matter. He was very proactive with the court, straightforward, and always available to talk when needed. His advice to me was spot on and he negotiated a better deal for me than I ever thought possible. Tim knows all the right people in the courtroom, including DAs and judges, and is well respected. In my opinion, it is absolutely critical to have a local attorney who knows that particular court system and Mr Bussey knows it better than anyone. Don’t let the fact that he is busy deter you, this is actually a good thing. He is absolutely worth every penny. I highly recommend Timothy Bussey!

I had a Careless Driving charge, in which I showed up for my first appearance by myself. The DA, wanted to give me a deferred sentence and in return he wanted 4 hours of Traffic School and 25 Hours of Community Service. I said no and scheduled it for a Trial Preparation and a Jury Trial. I was in over my head, so I got on Avvo and found Mr. Bussey and hired him. Mr. Bussey. was able to Plea Bargain it to a Deferred Sentence, so that it wouldn't show up on my record. In return I did a 4 Hour Master Drive Class and Paid $150 plus Court Costs - $212.50 No Community Service. I was ecstatic! If your life is on the line, you wan't an experienced Trial Lawyer who's name is well respected in the Legal Community, so you don't have to go to trial! He got it resolved quickly and efficiently and this is all behind me now. I thank God and I Thank Mr. Bussey. When your life is on the line, don't take chances - Hire the best in Colorado!

I would strongly recommend Mr. Bussey for any friends/family as an attorney for any defense. Mr. Bussey did make this amazing judgement of "case dismissed" happened to me. Even DMV officer said " You are lucky" when I got a new and clean DL.

I hired Mr. Bussey to represent me after the Colorado Springs Police Department charged me with fighting. Mr. Bussey knew exactly what to do in my case. He executed his strategy to perfection, resulting in my case being dismissed. I was charged with fighting in public; and the complainant was not. Mr. Bussey convinced the district attorney to attempt mediation with the complainant at the Neighborhood Justice Center, which resulted in the complainant requesting the district attorney to dismiss the charge. The district attorney did dismiss the charge. Mr. Bussey then successfully petitioned the court to have the case records sealed. I couldn't have asked for a better outcome! If you need an attorney, Mr. Bussey's experience, legal expertise and professionalism make him your best choice.

We talked with a couple lawyers before we visited Tim's office. The first time we talked with Tim about our case, we knew he was the one we wanted to handle it. He took the reigns, was extremely knowledgeable about the law and his whole staff was personal and great. Every time we called or emailed with a question about the process we recieved a return call immediately. The results Tim got for our case was everything our family had hope for. He never sugar coated the other possibilities but he ensured we knew everything every step of the way. I felt he handled us as if we were old friends. We hope to never need the services of a lawyer again, but if we did...Tim will be our first call. If you find yourself in need of a lawyer, we highly recommend Tim for any legal services if you want someone who knows the law, is extremely professional and personal and treats the case as if it was his only one.
