The greatest

Being a woman in a so called mans world, Stephanie Burgess has what it takes to take on anything coming her way. As a court appointed attorney , she surpassed all the labels/misbeliefs/the negative labels that are given to 'pro bono attorneys' - not that she is one mind you, but i am here to tell you... she's like a golden belt boxer in the ring and what gets her that title is unlike most attorneys, Even High Dollar attorneys, what gets her that golden belt is she fights w her heart. Stephanie Burgess gets in the ring and wins the match , no matter how big her opponent might be, who it is she's fighting for, she does it with heart. She's got growl. She never left my side and I wish I could thank her more.

David vs. Goliath

This story is about a lesson of courage, faith, and overcoming what seems impossible. I retained Stephanie Burgess as my lawyer to represent me in my child custody case against my ex-wife. From the beginning, I was going through severe anxiety and had cast doubt over my own case because I di...dn’t know what was going on. When I met with Stephanie Burgess, she assured me that everything will be ok and that I need to have courage, trust, and pray. Stephanie Burgess was very attentive to the details of my case and is very knowledgeable about the law. Stephanie Burgess focused on my concerns throughout the whole litigation process. In the court room is where I saw the most outstanding performance of my life. I was in shock and awe over her performance in the court room. Stephanie Burgess put on a great show and she was amazing!! She was met with an army of people from the opposing party that tried to destroy my character. Stephanie Burgess’ tactics were strong and swift. Stephanie Burgess carried her sling of knowledge and instead of throwing stones at the opposing party, she threw the words of the law. The performance Stephanie Burgess put on had my family and friends in shock and awe. My family and friends were very pleased with the results. Although the army of people from the opposing party left with disappointment, the decision made by the judge was fair. Stephanie Burgess is the most professional lawyer I’ve ever met. I highly recommend this law firm to anyone who needs legal advice and/or representation. If retaining her as your counsel, please be patient and trust in her knowledge and her profession. She had me and my child’s best interest at heart. Stephanie Burgess, Attorney at The Burgess Law Group deserves more than just the five (5) stars rating. I don't think there is enough stars to rate this lawyer and this law firm. Her motto speaks for itself, “The Small Firm with a Big Fight!!” Stephanie, thank you so much for what you’ve done for me, my family, and my friends. Mr. Marvin N. Frazier, II

BEST ATTORNEY IN SAVANNAH

After going through 2 attorney's and not getting any justice in our custody battle for our niece. Stephiane Burgess was very professional and knowledgeable about the law. She took on our case after being bounced around by different lawyers. JUSTICE WAS SERVED ONCE WE PUT OUR CASES IN HER HANDS!! OU...R FAMILY HAS OUR NEICE BACK UNDER ONE ROOF. What I loved about her is she kept it 100, the good, the bad and the ugly but she never left our side. She treated us like family and got business done. Thank you so much. We prayed for an lawyer just like her A FIGHTER till the end.
