About Timothy M

Timothy M Starosta built a career that links Midwestern roots to a small-firm practice. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in history from the University of Missouri–Kansas City in 2004, then went on to complete his Juris Doctor at the University of Tulsa College of Law in 2008. Those two degrees set a clear path from liberal arts to law. They also placed him in regional networks that would shape his professional life.

After law school he moved quickly into private practice. In 2008 he established The Starosta Law Office, LLC and has operated the firm since then. Running a one-person or small firm requires more than legal knowledge. It requires handling client intake, managing case workflows and overseeing the administrative side of a business. Starosta’s role as owner has meant wearing all those hats.

He is licensed to practice in both Missouri and Kansas. That dual admission affects how he approaches cases. It requires attention to differing state rules and court procedures. He is a current member of the Kansas City Metropolitan Bar Association and the Clay County Bar Association. Those memberships place him in professional circles where he can stay current on local practice issues and court developments.

Outside the courthouse, Starosta has taken on community responsibility. Since 2015 he has served on the board of the Northland Symphony Orchestra. Board work on an arts organization calls for fundraising, governance and outreach tasks. It also signals an interest in civic life beyond legal practice.

Colleagues and clients see him most often through his firm. The Starosta Law Office, LLC serves individuals and entities in matters handled under state law in Missouri and Kansas. He handles the business and administrative duties of the practice while managing client work. He maintains professional memberships that keep him connected to local legal communities.

Today he continues to lead The Starosta Law Office, LLC and accepts matters in Missouri and Kansas. He focuses on providing legal services to clients in those jurisdictions through his private firm.
