Solid as a court building's pillar that helps bear halls of justices' weights, attorney Nigel Burns will be there for you as he has been for me with: 1) Integrity 2) Compassion 3) A broad & thorough understanding of law with practiced expertise and invaluable understanding as to respective courts Go ahead and rank the order of importance yourself. I obviously have no idea as to your own particular challenges and lets keep it that way. I do know from a lifetime of experiences those three above are imperative to me when selecting legal representation. Nigel Burns stands out, above the rest in all three; albeit, most importantly, the latter. We all face myriads of challenges, some of which demand a lawyer. Save yourself from the prospect of more troubles by hiring a great one. Nigel Burns would be an excellent choice. He's been there for me and will be for you.

The Law Offices of Nigel Burns were incredibly supportive and responsive as I needed to navigate settling my father's estate (living trust). Sam and Nigel took the time to explain as well as prepare any documents needed and helped me and my family get through a very difficult time.

I found Nigel through a recommendation from a parent on my son’s baseball team due to some custody issues we were having. They had great things to say about their experience with him so we gave it a shot. I worked with Nigel, Sam and Nazanin throughout the process of modifying an existing custody order that just wasn’t working out anymore. I am so thankful I found them, as I actually ended up with more custody than I had initially asked for and my kids are now thriving. I felt so supported throughout an otherwise stressful and contentious situation. Having been the 2nd firm I’ve worked with for this case, I can say without a doubt that they were VERY reasonable in terms of cost. I always felt like their priority was to help me. They were very responsive to my calls and emails, professional in court, and overall I had a great experience and couldn’t recommend them enough!

This firm is great! From the very first day, I felt as they took care of me. Nigel and his staff went above and beyond to make sure that I understand all of the dimensions of my legal case. They were thorough in explaining all of my legal options and have been forthcoming in regards to my realistic expectations and possible outcomes. I recommend this first.

I cannot begin to explain my appreciation that I have for Mr. Nigel and his team members Nick and Samuel. The directions I received from other attorneys was basically saying that there is nothing they could do for me. So when I spoke to Mr. Nigel Burns, I was apprehensive at first but his team delivered for me. They genuinely cared and worked hard especially with wonderful response times. I even received responses on Saturday night that I didn't expect back until Monday. They did their due diligence regarding my situation and they are the only firm I have recommended to my friends and family. They are fair, good, and honest. Thanks again!

It is very hard to find good attorneys knowledgeable in family law. More specifically, a team knowledgeable in the conservatorship of an ailing parent. In 2016, our mom’s care provider unlawfully obtained conservatorship over our mom. She did this without any of our family’s knowledge. It was an absolute nightmare! The Law Offices of Nigel Burns helped us unravel everything and ultimately worked to help us obtain permanent conservatorship over our mom. I have never seen a more harder working legal team than everyone who works for Nigel’s law firm. Nigel and his team have always been attentive, courteous, and quick to respond to any of our questions or concerns. To date we continue to use this law firm for any legal representation. We are forever grateful for all the hard work this law firm did to help us navigate through a very difficult time and therefore recommend them to everyone.

Nigel and his team were extremely helpful in helping navigate my very stressful divorce. He was always there to support me, helped me get the custody I wanted and come away feeling as best I could about everything. His team is professional and efficient and even after my divorce, he has been helpful in situations that arise. Highly recommend!

It is a genuine pleasure to recommend one of the area’s finest attorneys. In my capacity as the client, I have worked closely with The Law Office Nigel Burns throughout my legal struggles. Mr. Burns earned my trust by always doing everything he said he would, and truly did have my best interests in mind at all times. The law office assisted me during a stressful and complicated part of my life requiring high levels of intelligence and understanding: He met every challenge, deadline, and goal presented and tackled every problem with grace and ease. Many of the solutions proposed were insightful and practical, and he showed a remarkable capacity for breaking large issues into manageable segments. He is perceptive, emphatic, and committed to every task he takes. Mr. Burns consistently demonstrated a thorough knowledge of the California Regulations. He always showed commitment to my cases, ability to understand the dynamics of personalities, and the ability to solve problems with thinking out of the box when necessary. Mr. Burns’ zest for life, variety of interests, and ability to relate to people makes him a great leader. He understood intuitively when colleagues were confused (like myself), lost, or off-track, and brought those individuals back on task without judgment. In the years that I have known and worked with Mr. Burns, I have developed enduring respect for both his work ethic and his problem-solving abilities. I can confidently say that if you do find yourself in the unenviable position of needing an attorney, The Law Office of Nigel Burns would be the best choice you can make.

We have used the Law office of Nigel Burns, several times in the past and once again recently. Nigel is a great person, but he is an exceptional Attorney. We are very pleased with the quality of his work and especially his character.

First of all, you will be able to park in a wonderful area at the Bunker Hill off 1st street in a gated area, You may not think this is a big deal , but they are a quick walk to courthouse, and after discussion of the case, providing evidence, possibly going to court a few times. You will love the convenience and the easy access when you are doing battle, either criminally or civilly. The head of the firm cannot be missed... Nigel, who will speak efficaciously and quite bluntly in his lilting brougue Irish accent about exactly what and what not you can do. It is not to be missed. It takes a bland reckoning of your displeasure at your opponent and turns it into an episode of "The Fall" (or any other irish crime drama) He gave our case to the unflappable senior lawyer Brandon Wyman. What we liked about Brandon is times of extreme stress, he never lost sight of the ball, and managed to put together a stellar defense of a trust battle, He considered all our evidence large and small, and told us what to ignore and what to focus on. At the courthouse, at the cafeteria, I overheard him work over a much more expressive attorney who was losing the battle on a different court case, and thought to myself. He really can turn on the aggression when necessary but leaves it alone when not needed. His ability to mount logic in the face or sheer stupidity was impressive. And he worked tirelessly giving us time on Saturdays and Sundays from home, when even the most horrible thing was bothersome. These emotional battles of probate trusts and yes even a TRO or custody issues need a strong stable hand and we got that in droves. So much so that we recommended friends and a family members to work on their divorce and custody issues and a friend to work on a multi sibling trust probate argument. I could not imagine our family getting through this crisis without them Law offices of Nigel Burns Anthony H and Nancy
