About Attorney Awards

Biography

Admitted to the bar in 1991, Timothy Bussey is an experienced Colorado Springs personal injury lawyer. Over more than three decades in practice, Mr. Bussey has served in positions including prosecutor in El Paso and Teller Counties, an active-duty Judge Advocate in the United States Air Force, and a special assistant attorney general for the State of Colorado. Mr. Bussey has spent more than three decades practicing in various capacities in the field of law, making him highly effective in counseling injured clients.

Mr. Bussey has taken over 100 cases to trial before judges, juries, and courts-martial. This is more than a statistic, since today's bar is loaded with attorneys who seem to avoid the courtroom at any cost. Granted, negotiating favorable dispositions is an important part of an injury lawyer's job.

When casework becomes routine or repetitive, one response attorneys can take is to mechanize their practice or perform half-heartedly. A much better response, and one that Mr. Bussey has chosen, is to use his experience as an opportunity for exploring new strategic ground.

Despite the demands of a busy legal practice, Mr. Bussey remains highly energetic and values spending time with his family, including coaching his children’s junior basketball teams.
