Michael Burgis

Michael has shown exceptional litigation skills and has proven to have a high-level understanding of law in complex workers' compensation cases. I first came across his firm through some videos he posted and was impressed by his office staff and his paralegal's understanding of the law as well. Mike's a true advocate for the injured worker.

When I reported my work injury to my employer, I had no idea that I was about to embark in a legal battle. I knew nothing about workers compensation laws. All I knew was that my health was affected in various ways and I needed help. I'm so glad that I chose Michael Burgis to help me through this whole process. He is genuinely caring! He kept me in the loop! In speaking with different people throughout this, I felt all the more lucky and comfortable because I heard stories of people who had never met their attorneys much less spoken to them. Brian met with me and answered all my questions. He communicated with me throughout everything and was very thorough in explaining things to me. I'm extremely grateful to him and his staff. His knowledge and professionalism are to be admired! I highly recommend Michael Burgis.

Michael Burgis and Jenny Valencia are rockstars. As a team, they handled my complex Worker's Compensation case with compassion, hard work, attention to detail, responsiveness and an effectiveness that went beyond the norm. They were up against one of the toughest WC insurance firms in my case, and yet, they were able to secure much needed surgeries, even during Covid, and even when I was out of state, per my doctor's orders, to be with family during a spine surgery and recovery. The character they showed, in the midst of handling so many cases, and the kindness they displayed while handling such a horrible circumstance (the WC case and injury), is extremely rare. I cannot recommend them strongly enough. If you need REAL help, true attention to detail and compassion while being tough as nails against the powers that be, you need Michael Burgis and Associates. Jenny took amazing care of me, answering emails and calls promptly, coming in on weekends to get things done ahead of time. Mr. Burgis always found time to speak with me personally if I needed it, too, which was incredible. They found ways to make things happen that I don't think other law firms could have done. And, by the way, you want Michael Burgis arguing any case for you. I'm a pretty sharp cookie, and I could barely keep up with the speed with which he verbally argued his points. He's as sharp as it gets. Hire them. They will take care of you, and you will feel confident that you have the best possible team during a process that can be difficult. You have your choice of who to hire. The power is yours. Why not hire the best? I did. And now, post settlement, I feel I can pursue the treatment I need to live a healthy life. That can be your story, too. By the way, I had another lawyer before them, and it wasn't going well. So I found Michael Burgis and Associates on Yelp. So glad I did. Call them. You won't regret it!

If I could give them 20 stars I would. I had a Worker's Comp case lasting over 5 years and once I hired them, it was finally settled in just a few months. They were extremely responsive, very professional, understanding and absolutely went over and beyond in every way. Especially to the continuous professional feedback and guidance from Jenny. am so forever grateful.

Michael Burgis and his team are a class act. You truly won't find a more kind, knowledgeable, professional, honest person (let alone a lawyer) anywhere. I had him help me with my workers' comp case and am a happy client. Michael and his staff made themselves available to answer all my questions, responded in a timely manner to my emails, and were extremely professional. He was referred to me by a colleague - and I will absolutely refer him to others here on Avvo! Five stars all the way!
