His representation at all times was thoroughly and refreshingly honest and compassionate. This is a man who cares about people and who is more interested in truth and justice than ...
Burton Jay Francis's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse Burton. He is a highly skilled attorney that is well respected in the legal community."
"I had the great opportunity to be able to work with Mr. Francis on numerous criminal defense cases, and during my time I spent with Mr. Francis, I can honestly say that if you are facing any type of criminal charges, Mr. Francis should be your choice. He is down-to-earth, approachable, and relates well to his clients. He views criminal charges as a declaration of war against his client, and fights zealously to defend against them. As a former prosecutor, he knows the ins and outs of the criminal justice system. With both perspectives (that of a prosecutor and a defense attorney), he is always thinking of how to preempt the other side's argument. He is a step ahead of any opponent in court, and a master of cross-examination. His oratory skills are superior to any of those I have observed in court, and his creativity in court, coupled with his extensive knowledge of the law, make for a formidable force against any prosecutor trying to convict his clients. I highly endorse Burton."
"I highly endorse this lawyer. Mr. Francis' skills, intellect, experience, and dedication to his clients' needs are all truly top notch."
"I endorse this lawyer. Burton has attention to detail in all matters particularly asset forfeitures in criminal cases. He has the utmost reputation in character and honesty as well."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Burt for well over a decade. I have tried many a case in which he has been involved. He is truly an artist in trial, one of the finest, most creative attorneys I know. His knowledge of the law is second to none. He tackles each case with passionate determination. I highly endorse him."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Mr. Francis for approximately 20 years and we worked together as Deputy District Attorneys for 12 years. I consider Mr. Francis to be one of the best and most experienced trial attorneys in Fresno. I have and will continue to refer work to him."
