Mr. Burns is the BEST!

Mr Burns is the BEST attorney in the area of civil law. He is extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy and caring. I hired another law offices before and they were sending me straight to jail after charging me thousands of dollars. Then I hired Mr. Burns and he could proof that I was completely innocent ...of the alleged crime and DISMISS the case! I would resoundly recommend Mr. Burns to all my friends and family who need legal representation in the civil matters. Mr. Burns is simply the BEST!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
