Great Result!

Ken Burkley was an extremely helpful attorney! He was able to get my case dismissed at the preliminary hearing. He's honest and doesn't try to promise too much, which was appreciated.

Ken is the best.

Ken provided the help my family needed. He was professional and kind in our time of grief. His knowledge helped guide us through a long series of legal matters easily. He always said had the time to talk to us and answered all of our questions quickly. It was an estate situation that we couldn’t ...get through on our own. I would highly recommend him.

Excellent Attorney

I could not have picked a better lawyer to represent me for my DUI case. Ken, went above and beyond what I expected. He showed great knowledge of the law and was available anytime that I had questions. Ken, was able to get me a deal that I initially though was unattainable. Ken, is a highly respected... and well-known lawyer in Westmoreland County. I would recommend him to anyone that needed legal assistance.

Posted by David | December 17, 2017 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Excellent, Personal, Involved, Committed

Ken was intimately involved with all of the DUI related situations I encountered. Each was researched with one dismissed and another negotiated settlement (within the parameters of the regulations / law). With the added circumstances of my spouse's passing and my extended medical difficulties, Ken ...was able to arrange for continuations without any negative effect on the outcomes of the cases. I would most assuredly recommend Ken to any one that that is seeking an exceptional attorney.

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.
