Amazing!!!

I find it funny that a person who is anonymous gives a bad review, but all I can say is good about Melissa Burleigh. She helped me with an issue with my house and mortgage and she was nothing short of amazing! I highly recommend her for anything. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to her.

Amazing, professional and extremely intelligent

Attorney Burleigh helped represent my business getting through some zoning issues. She’s a great lawyer, who is professional, kind, energetic and witty. She is now officially our business attorney l, and I look forward to working with her again

Personal, professional & Amazing

Melissa & her assistant Andrea were both so helpful when it came to my Child Custody case. When emotions are running high it can be tough to put blind faith in someone who you just recently met. But I did and thankfully so! Melissa and Andrea helped me get my daughter back while also managing my high... emotions in a very compassionate way. Rest assure you can put your faith in their team to get you what you need and more.

My 'until she retires' lawyer!!!

I was referred to Melissa through a friend. My parents were having a tough time with a lawyer the were working with. We brought the materials to Melissa's office after talking with her Administrative assistant, Andrea, who made sure to advise us on everything we needed so that everything was efficie...nt. That made the process go smoothly. The across the board price was very fair too, for it being one lawyer. Honestly, we will be going back for any law help.

Best Ever!!!

I have been a VERY long time client with Attorney Burleigh, she was the first Attorney that I went too and trusted. She has always been very upfront and honest about what she is able to do and she has always followed through. Whenever she has worked on my files she is always fair with pricing and has... always given me the price up front, and if I have taken longer to get back into the office even at one point it was a year and a half, she still followed the pricing. I can say that it has been a tremendous blessing to have Her Administrator there because I do get calls and emails back much quicker because When Melissa would be in court all day she wasn’t always able to get back quickly but Andrea is phenomenal at getting back to me and has been so helpful and informative with all New questions regarding my cases. Thank You both Ladies at Burleigh Law Office you are absolutely amazing and I can’t Thank you enough for All your hard work! Keep going strong!!!
