No Contact Order Revoked - Domestic Violence Case dismissed

Liza was extremely knowledgeable of my domestic violence case. She worked well with my wife's lawyer to successfully revoke the no contact order and then fully dismiss the case. She kept me well informed of the case and there were no surprises. Everything she said would occur happened. My wife and I... are extremely satisfied with the results of the case and Liza was a big part of it.

Professional, compassionate, knowledgable

I contacted Liza Burke after CPS began investigating our family based on a false allegation of child abuse. I am a lawyer and my husband is an engineer; nothing in our education or experience prepared us for the shock and horror we felt while under investigation by CPS. Feeling like we had been cau...ght in the Twilight Zone, Liza immediately put us at ease with her professionalism, compassion, knowledge, and rock solid sanity. Liza explained her experience with CPS, which completely validated our own experience. Her advice regarding what to expect during the investigation, neglect determination, and appeals process proved spot on. Ultimately, our case resolved expeditiously and favorably. I can't thank Liza enough for the guidance and peace of mind she gave us during a very difficult time. I wholeheartedly recommend Liza Burke. She is a tremendous asset to our community.

Strong advocate and dedicated attorney

Liza Burke is an outstanding domestic violence attorney. She helped defend me in a very stressful domestic violence protection order case and was extremely responsive, dedicated and aggressive. She responded quickly to all of my questions, even when on vacation. She was very transparent with me and p...rovided great counsel and advice for my case. Her advocacy in court was great; I was impressed with her dialogue with the judge in court. She is very passionate, funny and assertive. Overall, I would highly recommend her to anyone involved in any domestic violence or protection order cases.

Personable and results-driven. Extremely grateful Liza was on my side.

When I found myself in unfamiliar waters, dealing with domestic violence accusations and going up against a system that isn't real favorable to males, I was comforted knowing Liza was there to ensure my case was dealt with fairly — and more importantly — with integrity. I had consulted with three ...other attorneys, and something always seemed a little "off" with them. Perhaps it was the fact that every other attorney I spoke with was more interested in telling me about their process, how cases typically get resolved under a Stipulated Order of Continuance (plea bargain) or how they were going to "rip" the other side. Liza was the only attorney who actually asked me what I wanted and what was important to me — which, in my case, was nothing short of a complete dismissal. Liza saw that my case was dismissed, all while being personable and knowing when to infuse a bit of humor into the process to lighten the mood. In an environment full of negativity, Liza was a positive force and one whom I highly recommend should you find yourself needing representation.

Liza took on my case and closed a lengthy and tumultuous legal battle expeditiously and with acuity.

Liza came to my rescue after being served with papers and nowhere to turn. I found Liza through a recommendation from one of her colleagues while searching for counsel. My case involved a lengthy property dispute that turned ugly with false allegation of harassment. She performed a thorough and co...mprehensive research of the case, and together we developed a strategy to resolve the issue. With only two weeks of preparation Liza was able to successfully defend my position with an outcome that exceeded my expectations. While in the courtroom, Liza demonstrated her grasp of the situation and was rock solid in her defense of my position. She was quick on her feet when the opposition presented some emergent information that was not previously discovered, and used the judicial process to my advantage. Liza presented my case in professional respectful manner that garnered a courtroom atmosphere of trust, sincerity, and professionalism that enabled the desired outcome. After three previous attorneys, I can honestly say I am glad I hired Liza to bring closure to my unfortunate situation, and would recommend her for any legal matter.
