Personal Injury 90%

I represent injury victims. Since 1983, a primary focus of my practice has been representing injured railroad workers under the Federal Employers' Liability Act (FELA). In addition, I represent people for injuries caused by car & truck accidents, medical negligence, dangerous products, dram shop violations, and unsafe premises. The catastrophic injuries for which I have helped people recover compensation include burns, brain damage, paralysis and quadriplegia, amputations and spinal injuries.

Litigation 10%

Apart from my personal injury and wrongful death practice, I represent people with claims involving legal malpractice, bad faith insurance disputes, whistleblower retaliation, and other general civil litigation matters.

Outstanding

Mr. Burge represented my family and I against a railroad Giant and we won. His tenacity help prove that the little guy has a voice. He helped my family move on from our situation with our heads held high.

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.
