scam artist

I've never met such a rude and arrogant lawyer. This guy thinks he is invincible. He walks over people with no mercy or empathy. He took a security deposit from my clients and refused to refund it based on the "oral agreement" that he fabricated. I can't believe this guy is allowed to practice.

Trusted professional for tenant and landlord law

I hired Mr. Burmeister in 2005 and again in Aug 2012. Rarely do landlords and property managers need to reach out to an eviction attorney if the tenant prescreening process is done correctly. When circumstances change and the tenant relationship with the owner/manager become unruly, James Burmeister ...is the professional to call! I met him in 1999 when a Mira Costa College professor asked him to speak at our property management class about tenant-landlord law. He’s a fair minded person that has a fiduciary to his client, with that said a reasonable a tenant could approach him to explore a fair/equitable outcome for all parties vs. the judge and maybe the sheriff getting involved. I’m very aware of deadbeat landlords/managers – some are sloppy and others can be malicious. There’s a vetting process that Mr. Burmeister uses and in the end there are cases he can’t or won’t take.

He's an excellent attorney in all ways

This attorney did SO much for me. Further, he is truly dedicated and went the extra mile to advise me of things to look out for that I had not even considered. He's a really excellent: knowledgeable, honest, engaged with your problems, diligent, and dedicated. He is so reasonably priced; doesn't try ...to gouge you. Office staff is great too. His referrals if you are out of the area are top notch too. He's a landlord's dream attorney. Goes right by the law and never engages in any malicious legal activities.
