Brilliant lawyer
5 stars does not do this woman justice - if there was a choice for a 10 star recommendation I’d give her that. She is an amazing attorney. She has a calm and confident approach with clients, but don’t let that fool you… she’s a hardcore rock star when it comes to the litigation process. She has a ...

Fantastic
I’ve used her services for quite a while and, let me say, quite clearly, that hiring her was one of the best choices I’ve ever made.

Scared Father
Mrs. Burkett was my lawyer for my custody for my then 9 year old son. Mrs. Burkett has so easy to deal with and made me feel like I had a fighting chance with gaining custody of my son.

My Divorce Expereince
She was great to work with. I was not sure if my ex husband would contest or even sign the divorce papers. Most lawyers I talked to said that the only way to handle this type was to start off as a contested divorce. Jessica was the only one that said she would start of as a uncontested divorce and...
"Jessica is an honest and ethical attorney that I highly recommend. She strongly advocates for her clients, especially when children are involved."
"Ms. Burkett is a stellar lawyer who not only excels in the field of family law, but she is honest, ethical, hard working and respected. Whether I have worked with her on a case or on the other side of a case, she has always been a fierce advocate for her client, a very firm but respectful opposing counsel, and she is always prepared and accessible. I happily and without any reservations endorse this excellent lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jessica is the best! We had a case together were I was the opposing counsel on a very messy divorce. Not only was she professional at all times, she was knowledgable, punctual, and courteous. A lot of lawyers would have been frustrated but she ALWAYS remained calm under pressure. She is a remarkable Family Law Attorney."
"Jessica Burkett volunteers free time answering questions on AVVO to assist those needing help with immigration problems. She is well respected by both judges and attorneys. I wholeheartedly endorse her."
"Jessica was an opposing counsel on a case. She aggressively advocated on behalf of her client and was a formidable opponent. She was always professional despite our client's differences. I have since consulted with her on other matters because of her knowledge and expertise in the family law arena. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking an experienced and aggressive attorney."
