Treated with honesty and integrity here

My name is Don W. Over 4 years ago i was injured on the job and was represented by another law firm, and when I called them with questions i felt I was a burden to them. In my disabled capacity, this brought lots and of anxiety and stress to my already pained situation. I was introduced to Micheal ...Burgis by what i believe to be a blessing and asked him if he would look at my case. After meeting with Mr. Burgis I knew in my heart that this was the attorney I needed to fight for my rights. As an injured worker, I needed special medical attention both physically and mentally and he was outstanding in seeking both of these for me. His staff were both kind and courteous whenever I called with questions. I can't explain how it felt to know that I was represented by a firm who genuinely cared about my well being. After only four months, Mr. Micheal Burgis had negotiated a settlement for myself and my family, who also suffered throughout this injury. This settlement was way beyond what I ever expected and my family suffers no more financially. Micheal Burgis - thank you from the bottom of my heart for fighting for my rights,and representing me with honesty and integrity. I can only hope if anyone out there reads this and you've had an injury and you now have the pain of all this both physically and mentally you contact Mr Micheal Burgis' staff, make an appointment and get in to see him. You will be relieved to find this hard working, honest and yes, brilliant attorney can be your blessing too. Again, special thanks to the staff - Javier, Yaneth, and Diego for always keeping that smile both in person and especially when I called with questions. You folks are the best! Sincerely, Don W

A damn good Attorney

The day I had to do my depostion I was so nervous and scared. Michael Burgis talked to me and explanined everyting in detail he really put my mind to ease in explanning every detail. He was patient and he took his time with answering any and every possible question I had. He is smart and knows worke...rs comp law. the day of my depo before we even got started the other side wanted to settle we reached a settlement within 15 minutes it was amazaing I walked away with all smiles!! with out a benefit of a doubt I would use him again and again ! and I will reccomend him in a drop of a hat. he is truly a work of art.

Incredible Attorney, highly recommended

I cannot write a great enough review about Micheal Burgis. If I could leave him six stars, I would.

 A friend recommended me to Micheal Burgis. He treated me with kindness & respect. I trusted Micheal to get the best possible outcome for me and he did. He will make sure your voice is heard and wil...l help you get your life back on track. I would not hesitate in recommending Micheal Burgis for sexual harassment cases. I'm amazed by the results that I still can't believe it. Thanks again, Micheal Burgis!
