“The overall adoption process was much quicker than I expected and what you charged us was much less than any other place would have charged us. Thank you again for everything Zach ... we were so blessed to have you as Alex's attorney!”

“Attorney Boyd Odom is a wonderful and honest person to work with. She gives the facts to me straight without sugarcoating it and I appreciate that, for I can make an educated decision for my next move. She is informative, personable, and detail oriented. I love working with Ms. Boyd Odom as my attorney and I will always refer to her for her expertise, availability, and her commitment to her clients.”

“Zach is ethical, legally creative, extremely hard working and highly dedicated to achieving the very best outcome for his clients. If you need a hard hitting attorney who still retains a moral character, look no further! Zach’s firm won my complicated child support arrears case and continue to provide me with exceptional legal services on an international child custody case for my three daughters. Here is your last stop to finding a lawyer who not only listens, but really cares. I can HIGHLY recommend.”

What Makes Attorney Zachary Hunsinger Uniquely Qualified to Represent You?
I received my Juris Doctor and Master of Social Work degrees from Loyola University Chicago with a certificate in child law and a concentration in non-profit program management and development. There, I also received a public interest recognition award and a leadership and service award.
Before starting Hunsinger Law, LLC, I worked with multiple disenfranchised populations in various parts of the world. For example, I worked with refugees in southern Mexico at the United Nations, conducted field research about child domestic servitude in Tanzania, and assisted with representing high-risk youth in South Africa at the University of Pretoria’s™ Child Law Centre. In fact, a case wherein I drafted a brief about triple jeopardy for students, received a favorable opinion from the Constitutional Court of South Africa (USA’s Supreme Court equivalent).
In the United States, I also gained valuable experience at Loyola University’s Civitas ChildLaw Center and Northwestern’s Bluhm Legal Clinic’s™ Child and Family Justice Center as a student attorney appointed by the court to represent children in custody disputes and protection proceedings. Within that capacity, I conducted home visits investigating the child’s safety within the environment. I also met with incarcerated youth and adult clients, writing reports for the legal team about the clients’ well-being and institutional adjustment. In addition, I represented juveniles, parolee candidates, and people with disabilities in hearings.
My past non-profit experiences include helping one non-profit program increase revenue by 25% in 6-months, drafting mission statements, creating and implementing a mental health screening process for a volunteer program, writing a training component for behavioral health practitioners, specifically a curriculum about military sexual assault, organizing summits that connect service providers to families who lost loved ones, analyzing legislation pertaining to a non-profit’s interests and writing fact sheets and briefs to inform staff.
