Very detailed
John helped me close a multi party, multi document negotiation between three businesses that ultimately ended up in our favor because of his attention to detail and his ability for looking out for his clients well being. I would recommend him 100x over. Thank you again John!

John M. Burke's Lawyer Endorsements
"I was pleased to spend 3 years as the supervisory lawyer to John Burke before he moved to an intellectual property practice. With John Burke you have a tenacious litigator who is also a good man - a rare combination indeed. I look forward to seeing him take the intellectual property world by storm, which I have no doubt he will do. I highly recommend this lawyer."
"Attorney Burke is a zealous advocate, who is not afraid of new challenges in or out of the courtroom. John is always available to speak with his clients to ensure they understand what is occurring with their case. You will be lucky to have Attorney Burke on your team!"
"I endorse this lawyer."
"John Burke is very good at assault and battery cases in Southern Maine. What I like about John's approach is that he is upfront with clients about the risks and benefits of trial including collateral consequences. He gets results results in counties known for taking a hard stance on domestic violence."
"I endorse this lawyer."
