Excellent service. Very knowledgeable.

Paul Burris helped my wife and I in crafting our current estate plan. The process was made easy for us because of his high level of attention to detail and extensive expertise on the subject. He explained things clearly and thoroughly throughout the process. He will be the one to update our estate pl...an when the time comes and he is the person I would refer my friends and family to.

Excellent!

Paul Burris did an outstanding job helping us get our estate planning and wills prepared. This is not an easy task for most of us to do, but Paul was supportive and extremely professional and made us feel at ease. His knowledge of Estate planning is outstanding. We highly recommend him!

Estate Planning Without a Hitch

My husband and I (both senior citizens) spent several years trying to decide about setting up an estate trust. Finally, we were ready. Paul Burris was recommended to us by a respected retired attorney. And Paul did an excellent job. He was methodical and patient with us. He made sure we understood th...e ramifications of each decision. And he helped us successfully resolve an out-of-state issue. We plan to continue to use Paul’s services.

Paul Burris review

Paul was always more than happy to help. This was my first estate as a personal rep. so Paul lined me out. Paul and I worked very close to get this done in a very professional way. Paul was always easy to get a hold of and returned calls very timely.

Paul Burris

My family and I were very fortunate to have found Paul Burris and have him work for us on a medicaid issue we were having with one of my parents. Even though he encountered several roadblocks along the way ( one of them being pretty hi up there) he never gave in and was able to work through it bri...nging all parties involved to an equitable solution. There is a whole lot more to this story but the bottom line is Paul got the job done, and done well. I am very thankful to him for his service to our family. I have and will continue to recommend Paul and his services to all those I encounter needing his expertise.

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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
