Would highly recommend!

She is hands down the best lawyer my husband and I have had. She knows her stuff. Very demanding in court and gets you what you want. Our case has been a year long and she has alway been quick in response with us. She got us custody of my husbands son, which is very difficult to do. Worth every penny...!!!!

Great lawyer!

Lynda was fantastic! She made me feel that my interest was her priority and made me feel that someone was on my side. After having dealings with other lawyers that did not do this or make me feel this way it was outstanding to find one that did. Lynda did an outstanding job for me and made dealing wi...th my ex-wife far easier. Thank you Lynda for all you did for me!

Horrific Experience

My first meeting with Lynda Burke-Bentley was exactly what I wanted in an attorney. That is why I hired her to be my divorce attorney. That's where it all ended. After giving my retainer, I never spoke with her on the phone but was charged her rate to speak to her assistant, Tenley Robinson. Lynda di...d exactly what she wanted to do and not what was in the best interest of me, her client. Even when I begged and pleaded with Lynda to settle, she refused. This ultimately cost me approximately $70,000 for her services for my divorce. I never met with her before either of my mediations. I felt very unprepared going into mediation and my divorce was a very contentious divorce that she made even worse. In the end, I got less in the settlement than what my ex had offered me to begin with. I would NEVER recommend Lynda Burke-Bentley to anyone going through a divorce. She was recommended to me because she is known as a "bulldog". I just didn't know she would turn that bulldog mentality on me, her client.

Great knowledgable attorney

Was very understanding of my case right from the beginning. Listened to my concerns and worked to develop a good strategy to proceed. Always responsive.

Excellent and Professional

Lynda Burke is an excellent and knowledgeable attorney. She and her staff were very compassionate and gave the best advice during my divorce. Everything was done with the highest degree of professionalism and promptness. She went out of her way to be helpful and her fees are reasonable. I am so thank...ful for everything she has done for me and my family. I would not hesitate on hiring her. She is the best! A very grateful client!!!
