Posted by William | September 3, 2012

A professional, knowledgeable lawyer who is always caring.

We have used Attorney Burns for contracts and estate planning. His advice has always been straightforward and accurate. He is always professional in both appearance and demeanor. He is very detailed in his research and explanation of what he advises, but remains open to questions and discussion on... these issues. His trustworthyness is unquestionable.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
