I grew up in Pasadena, Texas and attended Deer Park High School. I moved to California and attended Law School. While in California I worked at the district attorneys office and gained valuable courtroom experience. After graduating and obtaining my license in California, I began practicing Federal law. After three years of Federal Law practice I decided to come back home to Texas. I moved back to Texas and obtained my Texas license in 2013. The majority of my practice is Plaintiff's Personal Injury.

Harvey is a great attorney! He was super easy to work with and went that extra mile to make sure I was completely satisfied with the results of my case. I would definitely go back to Mr. Burns if I needed anything else.

I hired Mr. Burns for my personal injury case and he did a great job. I would highly recommend him. He kept me informed and I think he got me the most I could have gotten out of my accident case.
"Harvey is very experienced in handling personal injury cases. He not only works hard for his clients but is an overall stand up guy."
"I have worked with Harvey on numerous personal injury cases and he is always very well prepared, organized and well versed in the law."
