I had a very prompt response time from the office to schedule my consultation call. They were very informative, from the man who to my initial information (Didn't catch name), to Leslie Shafer who was my legal consultant. Leslie was kind and very up front about any fees or payment as well as answered all of my questions and explained the process thoroughly.

They go above and beyond! They are amazing!

Worst law firm ever. Jared West is not a lawyer. He is a swindler. He will lead you to mistakes. I don’t believe if he really went to a law school. I have contacted to BBB as well.

In response to Burnham Law: apparently it is not, because I was just able to finalize my divorce without it, with the professional help of a different law firm that didn't push me into the use of a business evaluator. Also, let's be 100% transparent and honest here. You had 3 months to tell me about a 'knowing waiver'. Instead, your lawyers told me EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE all that time, i.e. that no specialists would be needed in case of an amicable settlement. Happy to share those emails to show other people about your very shady handling of my case. Only when you learned we were headed for a settlement outside of court and in the advanced stages of reaching a full agreement (i.e. no more money for you) did you mention a business evaluator was 'indispensable'. You were clearly trying to push for more conflict = more money. Extremely bad practice that falls within the sad cliche of US law firms being all about money, not about people. ORIGINAL POST: Hired this firm for my divorce. Clearly communicated that I wanted an amicable settlement outside of court, even if this meant foregoing my husband’s business assets. This approach was confirmed and reiterated many times with my appointed lawyer Brian Lewis. Brian left the firm from one day to the next, I was appointed Mark Smith. At this time my husband and I had taken our own initiative to meet with a (non court ordered) mediator, with whom we made significant progress towards a resolution / settlement. In the midst of these negotiations Mark Smith started pushing for a business evaluator to evaluate my husband’s businesses even though I had made it very clear I did not want to pursue that. When I refused, they withdrew from my case. I had spent $18,000.00 to date with Burnham Law and had to start all over again with someone else. Clearly, Burnham Law was actively trying to push my case to court to get more money out of me.

they were awesome. so professional and precise. they took care of business. we would recommend to friends and family. no games, and no surprises.

I used Burnham Law for my recent case and they were amazing. All of the staff there are amazing and very knowledgeable! I highly recommend Burnham Law!

I was very impressed by Burnham Law, and so thankful I retained them. I was up against a claim made against me that held no merit and was quickly dismissed from the case thanks to Laurel and team. What I appreciated most about them was that they were quick to respond, easy to speak with, and explained things well. I've never been sued before, nor had to spend time engaging with lawyers, so having a lawyer that took the time to explain what was going on and didn't treat me as less than, was wonderful. And, I never felt like they were trying to get the most money out of me as a client, in fact I felt the opposite. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for lawyers who are honest.

I am just starting a new case with Burnham Law. The start of it has not gone well with them. But then, I luckily got forwarded to Donna Bystricky, the Firm Manager, who went above and beyond to make sure the issues were fixed. Sometimes you get paired with a lawyer that you just don't jive with, don't be afraid to speak up, talk to Donna, and see what magic she can work. We've got a long way to go, but I like my chances better now.

Burnham Law has been one of the best experiences with their professionalism and personal touch with their clients that I’ve ever worked with. As a 29 year veteran realtor and working with many law firms Burnham Law has always been my favorite go to company. I referral all my friends and family to Burnham Law knowing they will be handled like family.
