Jim Burnham

My case started out as a second-degree felony aggravated assault with a deadly weapon charge. Jim Burnham prepared a home run grand jury presentation that resulted in my case being reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor, then kept on going and got that misdemeanor dismissed. Hiring Jim Burnham wa...s the best decision I could have made. He is a hardworking, talented, and caring attorney. He got my case dismissed quickly and I was able to move on from the incident. Jim Burnham saved my life and career. I cannot express how grateful I am to have had Jim Burnham as my lawyer!

I was charged with a felony DWI. It was my 4th. I am a United States Marine Corps Veteran who has served numerous tours in Afghanistan and Iraq and is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Jim is an amazing lawyer. He is the reason that I received probation with no prison time for my... 4th DWI. I appreciate all the work that Jim did for me, and I will always recommend him to anyone that is looking for criminal representation. If you need an attorney who cares about you, I recommend Jim Burnham.

Mr Burnham is an amazing lawyer. I was accused by my previous employer, which was a fairly large public company, of embezzlement/grand theft in the ballpark of almost half a million dollars. I was terrified. Thanks to Jim, I was NEVER arrested, NEVER charged, NEVER called by a police officer and avoi...ded prosecution altogether. His advice and counsel was sound and correct every time. I estimate he put in 300+ hours on my case, so I was lucky that he charged a flat fee. I received an update every day and he never made me feel like he was not on my side. His reputation alone opened so many doors for my case and allowed us to settle without any legal fuss. We worked out a payment plan that was incredible – I could actually afford it. If you are facing charges, you need a lawyer. Don’t risk jail time or being pulled away from your family. With lawyers, you get what you pay for. What I paid for got me an honest, HARD WORKING, INCREDIBLE lawyer. Do not settle for cheap. Do you research on Mr. Burnham, then HIRE HIM. My case was in Dallas county.

Jim Burnham represented me in obtaining an early release from probation. During the hearing, I watched Jim convince the judge that I was no longer the troubled young man that had been convicted, that I had a support system in place that would not fail me, and that I needed to be released from probati...on early in order to move forward. Because of Jim’s efforts and thorough preparation, I’m able to get on with the next part of my life without probation weighing me down. I am lucky to have had an attorney who is as experienced and hard-working as Jim Burnham.

"I was wrongly accused of assaulting my step-daughter and I was arrested for Injury to a Child. I was an innocent man who had done nothing wrong, yet I was in danger of being convicted of a felony. Jim Burnham represented me for the Grand Jury and my case was dismissed before I was ever indicted. I... am so glad that I hired Jim to represent me. He fought very hard for me and cleared my name. I hope to never need a criminal lawyer again, but if I do, I will be calling Jim Burnham.
