Review Jeffrey Burr

Professional Expertise with Compassion.

5.0 stars

Posted by

Mr. Burr is not only an expert and a professional but also proved to me that there are still compassionate and generous Lawyers in the world. As a disabled senior citizen living below the poverty level with serious health issues, I was seeking to establish a Will and/or a Trust to leave my modest estate to. Mr. Burr listened to my wishes and outlined a comprehensive plan with easy to understand answers. The proposed fee was Very reasonable and one I was happy to take out a loan to pay for. After learning the details of my financial situation Mr. Burr wouldn't hear of it and both surprised and deeply moved me with his offer to put me in touch with 2 pro bono organizations to help people like myself. He expressed genuine concern and well wishes for my health and a hopefully longer life. God Bless Mr. Burr and may others be inspired by his example.
