This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent lawyer

I hired Mr. Burnell for 2 of my cases and pretty serious ones. Mr. Burnell always kept me updated and was on top of his game at all times. Also he was very reasonable with my situation as far as the charges. If you are in trouble and need legal help, don't even hesitate to call anybody but this guy.... 5 star service at all times.
