Reviews

We worked with Chief Dan Busken in a complicated police emergency response case. Throughout the pendency of the litigation, Chief Busken was knowledgeable, efficient, and hard-working.  His years of experience in law enforcement, coupled with his work ethic and work product, make him an invaluable asset on any case!

It is very refreshing to work with Dan. He is very responsive to emails and phone calls; he is thorough and meticulous in his work; and he provides an honest and candid assessment of the case. His work ethic and practical insight are second to none. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a use of force or police practices expert.

I have been an attorney for over 20 years and hired a wide variety of experts in criminal defense cases. I hired Mr. Busken in a very serious felony matter. His review was essential to getting that felony dismissed. I highly recommend Mr. Busken as an expert in any matter involving police investigations. He is also highly responsive, professional, and cordial.
