John is a professional through and through. His candor and legal acumen are second to none. We appreciated John's expertise and robust defense of us in light of ongoing school choice matter. We would not hesitate to recommend him to any of our friends and family.

Fantastic group of people to work with, Burn’s law office exceeded my expectations!

He was more loyal to the bench and bar and his own pompous career than he was to me as a client.

I retained the law office of John Burns about 6 months ago. I was fighting back and forth about leaving a review, but decided it was a good decision to do so. That way, no one falls into the trap that I did. I chose Mr. burns based on a Google search. I was initially happy with my decision. But, my mind was swayed VERY shortly after meeting with him. Mr. Burns did not listen to my wishes as a client, and decided he would try and win something that was easier than what I wanted, which deducted from my retainer quickly. I was later asked to sign some release papers for a few things. There were sections missed on the papers 3 times. I had to come back into his office and sign them each time, because his office continued to made mistakes. I was then billed for these mistakes, and money was deducted out of my retainer. He then decided to play a game with the opposing attorney, of a back and forth email correspondence which also ate away at the initial $2500. I ran out of the retainer VERY quickly, and did not have the means to pay any more. Long story short, I would NOT recommend the Law Office of John Burns to anyone seeking legal counsel.

John Burns and his Legal Team went above-and-beyond to make sure the unfortunate Criminal Charges I faced didn't stand in the way of me raising my two year old daughter. John's representation truly embodies my views on what to fight for, giving me peace of mind on how he is responding to the opposing counsel. I have gained a wealth of knowledge on my case due to John describing the immense mandates of Divorce Law in layman's terms. Every decision made on my behalf is explained to me so I don't walk out of the courtroom second guessing his. We have yet to settle the final divorce, but the outcome in the last year has been amazing. I genuinely feel like John is part of my family fighting for me and my daughter. I truly can't thank you him and his team enough for everything they have done for me. The decision to go with Burns Law Office will be one that I will never forget and always be grateful for.

Unless you know the law and want to write a big check for little to no help...RUN find someone else

I was referred to John by another attorney. I moved out of state during my divorce so I was concerned that I would have to travel back many times to finish my case. I was very pleased with how John was able to handle everything over a long distance. I’m sure it took extra time and energy from him to make it work. I would recommend Mr. Burns to anyone needing a family law attorney.

Mr. Burns provided excellent advice and helped me manage a difficult situation. He found professional experts to assist in my claim, he prepared me for court and he artfully negotiated a settlement that exceeded expectations and eliminated the need for a hearing. I can recommend him without reservation.

I can not express my gratitude for Attorney John Burns enough! John came in on my case years after it was ordered. He started by meeting with me, finding out what I needed, and what I was looking for in the future. He expertly combed through my case files and explained to me what my options were and helped me develop a list of priorities according to my needs and wants. Having a lawyer willing to speak candidly with me worked well and allowed me to realistically focus on the items that would make the most positive impact in my child's life and my home. Through John's positive relationships with his fellow constituents and years of experience he was able to negotiate resolutions without dragging out final decisions and extending the timeline months or years out. I highly recommend Attorney John Burns to all looking for a conscientious, effective, well-established, and most of all - caring lawyer to represent you as you navigate a custody case.
