Great personal injury lawyer

Stephen Burg and David Crough are amazing lawyers! My husband was injured in a motorcycle accident, through no fault of his own, and we were referred to their law firm to pursue a personal injury suit. They fought for us for almost four years to help us receive appropriate compensation. Our case fina...lly ended in court as an appropriate settlement agreement could not be reached. The case this law firm put together was rock solid and we were awarded well above our expectations by the court, thanks to all the hard work Stephen and David put in to it. They are so compassionate, intelligent, and professional. It was a pleasure working with them through such a difficult and frustrating time.

Honestly the Best Lawyer in Colorado!

I honestly couldn't ask for a better lawyer than Stephen Burg. He was there for me for 2 car accidents, of which have changed my life. Not once did I feel like I wasn't important to him. My cases were NOT easy, but he made me feel just as important as a million dollar client. When you are hurting & y...our life is turned upside down, a person like Stephen Burg is hard to find. I can't express enough how glad I am that he is here for me. I DOUBT that another lawyer would have worked as hard or had the compassion that Steve did/does. My family and I owe Steve so much for everything he's done for us, and helping me get my life back.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
