Best Federal Defense Attorneys

It is a joy to write a review about Burnham &Gorokhov PLLC. If I have paid $300000 in 2017 to some other attorneys, they would not have represented me more than Mr. Gorokhov did. The feds. Prosecutors have more support, well funded , have more leverage but Mr. Gorokhov proved to be the best among the... best. He fought for my life as if he knew me before. If i have chosen another attorney, the outcome of the trial would have been disastrous but thanks to Mr. Gorokhov for his calmness and professionalism. At one point in the trial, it became personal between Mr. Gorokhov and the feds. Thank God that an attorney like Mr. Gorokhov exists, I would have been in prison till now. I pray that the Lord will continue to strengthen Mr. Gorokhov and his team. And I want to thank him again and thank Ziran who also played an important part in this great victory.

Excellent legal representation

Mr. Gorokhov was always patient and detailed. He took time to explain all aspects of the case and the trial process. I felt comfortable in discussions regarding my decisions. I am extremely pleased I was able to work with him and with the outcome of my case.

Fabulous White Collar Defense Atty

Zealous advocate of my case and prudent of financials. He was Eugene was pivotal in coming to agreement with opposing counsel which led to as favorable an outcome as I could have hoped for.

Excellent representation

Every avenue he could, every issue he could target, and Every angle he could attack he thoroughly did it. If you are facing time and definitely if your freedom is on the line...I'd strongly advise Mr. Gorokhov is who you want to hire and have on your side...10 out of 10 times. " A Very Gratefu...l Client" Mr. Warren Hill

fantastic advice

I received a clear and understandable answer to my question. He will give you honest and objective advice, not just tell you what you want to hear so you hire him.
