"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."
