Wonderful Attorney and a Great Guy as well!

I hired Mr Burkhalter to represent my son while he was incarcerated and facing serious charges, and he did a wonderful job. The cases spanned over 3 years and covered 3 counties, which had to be hard on Mr Burkhalter, but he could be counted on to be there EVERY TIME! He also even called ME per...sonally to check on me after a court day because he knew how upset I was about the case. He never judged my son and did his best to help my son get straightened out. He truly is a GREAT attorney and a GREAT guy! I highly recommend him if you need legal representation.

Outstanding

Words can't express the amount of gratitude I have for Mr. Burkhalter. He helped me out when I was at my lowest and passed no judgement. He did everything he said he would do plus more. He stuck it out with me the entire 2½ years it took to resolve the case and not only did he help me avoid 10 years ...in prison I received probation and some fines. Every lawyer I came across in my time of need was only interested in money the first thing he asked was how am doing then said let's get you out of here not to mention he came and saw me on a Sunday and was already working on my case before he arrived. My bond was denied by my initial judge he was able to get me a bond before I even received the court date for them to tell me if they would give me one again. There were a lot of ways things could have went sour but he always stay on the up and up and kept me a good spirits and I'm forever appreciative for it.

Friendly and optimistic

Zachary is super friendly and optimistic. I spoke to a few other lawyers before him and they sounded like they hated what they did. When facing a charge for the first time, it was nice to speak to someone who was ready and willing to help.

Juvenile

Very impressed. Got 3 felony charges dropped to 1 misdemeanor. My 13 year old got probation and come home with me. We were literally in and out in like 20 minutes. He was great! Definitely use him again for any matter.

Outstanding Attorney

Zach is the best attorney I met. He was very kind, sensitive and patient explaining in details the process and his role thoroughly. He made a deal with the prosecutor in my case and we had the very best outcome. I cannot thank him enough for his efficiency and care. If you need the right atto...rney, he is just here!
