Click to report rating    2/5/24   5     5     5     5     5   Jim Burnham is a tremendous lawyer who cares about and protects his clients! He represented me on charges of felony theft and worked incredibly hard on my case with the prosecutor. In the end, instead of prison time, Jim got me probation with no conviction, with no fine, no restitution, and no community service. The only thing I have to do now is send in a probation sheet every month. RID: 268493
Click to report rating    1/15/24   5     5     5     5     5   Mr. Burnham represented me with determination and patience. Throughout the process, Mr. Burnham guided and prepared me for next steps. Mr. Burnham encouraged me to get started with a self-help program and seek counseling to help me personally. Mr. Burnham showed me kindness and compassion during a scary, difficult process. I recommend Mr. Burnham for anyone in need. RID: 268220
Click to report rating    8/17/23   5     5     5     5     5   I just landed a new job. My felony criminal background check came back clear and I start my new job soon. I am very happy! All the work that went into the diversion program that Jim Burnham obtained for me and the meticulous paramount work put in the expunction (deleting criminal records). Jim Burnham and his team did great things for me and I appreciate it! RID: 266497
Click to report rating    5/23/23   5     5     5     5     5   You want the best there is? Then you want Jim Burnham. The man gets the job done — while you see to the rest of your life. His experience, people skills, orientation and follow-through are beyond compare. My case was DWI. I knew from the beginning I was in good hands. He took the time to explain my options. His advice to me through thick and thin amounts to bonus personal mentoring I take with me. It’s the people skills. Lawyers are a dime a dozen. Not like Jim, though. Thanks to Jim’s craft, My DWI charge was. completely. dismissed. Jim had cleared this with the prosecuting attorney. That was a journey of month after painstaking hard-working month wherein Jim and his team labored without respite to provide all the needed information, coupled with the people skills I’ve never seen anyone deploy with such success. Hoping his conscientiousness will be of help to many. If you want this handled and to make a fresh start, Jim’s your man. RID: 265347
Click to report rating    12/9/19   5     5     5     5     5   Jim Burnham is an outstanding criminal attorney who was strongly recommended to me by other highly respected attorneys. I too, strongly recommend Jim to anyone facing a criminal charge. My college-aged son was arrested and faced two serious charges with major implications for his future. Jim meticulously worked to understand the details and skillfully identified significant issues, which eventually led to both cases being dismissed. This was the best possible result as this will allow my son to have the arrest expunged with no criminal record. Knowing we had an attorney of Jim’s exceptional caliber representing our son who was tirelessly fighting to achieve the best possible outcome, gave our family peace of mind during this difficult time. Jim’s excellent results speak for themselves and are a testament to his dedication to his clients. He is an expert at his profession and a caring man—the attorney you want on your side! RID: 216810
Click to report rating    7/6/17   5     5     5     5     5   I was indicted in New York federal court in a major wire fraud case. Jim Burnham is an honest and hardworking attorney that stops at nothing to defend your interests. Jim helped me get through one of the most difficult and unsettling times of my life. He saved my reputation and my freedom. I do not know where I would be today if it was not for Jim Burnham. Because of Jim’s hardworking representation, I got probation in my case even though the federal sentencing guidelines recommended that I go to prison. Mr. Burnham still calls to check on me and my family. RID: 187236
Click to report rating    4/25/17   5     5     5     5     5   Mr Burnham is an amazing lawyer. I was accused by my previous employer, which was a fairly large public company, of embezzlement/grand theft in the ballpark of almost half a million dollars. I was terrified. Thanks to Jim, I was NEVER arrested, NEVER charged, NEVER called by a police officer and avoided prosecution altogether. I estimate he put in 300+ hours on my case, so I was lucky that he charged a flat fee. I received an update every day and he never made me feel like he was not on my side. His reputation alone opened so many doors for my case and allowed us to settle without any legal fuss. We worked out a payment plan that was incredible – I could actually afford it. If you are facing charges, you need a lawyer. Don’t risk jail time or being pulled away from your family. With lawyers, you get what you pay for. What I paid for got me an honest, HARD WORKING, GOOD lawyer. Do not settle for cheap. Do you research on Mr. Burnham, then HIRE HIM. RID: 183800

 9/9/16   5     5     5     5     5   I was facing the prospect of having my felony probation revoked and being sent to the penitentiary. The judge had set no bond in my case. Before I hired Jim, I spoke to another lawyer who told me that there was nothing he could do. I was told that my case was hopeless, my probation would be revoked, and I would be sent to prison. Luckily, I was referred to Jim Burnham. Jim worked long hours calling multiple offices in both states on a daily basis, in addition to communicating with me and my family. Jim kept my probation from being revoked, and his tenacious representation resulted in my release, an outcome that the first lawyer didn’t believe was possible. RID: 174072

Click to report rating    10/20/14   5     5     5     5     5   I was charged with Felony Possion of a Controlled Substance in West Texas. Because of Jims expertise and hard work the case was dismissed. His nickname is the Bulldog and it is well earned. His tenacity is what you want when faced with the loss of your freedom. I can't recommend him high enough. RID: 144927
     10/17/14   5     5     5     5     5   After shifting through a sea of underwhelming attorneys, I had the opportunity of meeting with Jim to represent a mentally incapacitated family member. Immediately, Jim’s legal knowledge and experience stood out among his peers. Furthermore, after choosing him to represent my ward, his work ethic proved to be unwavering. Week after week, Jim cut through the bureaucracy (and subsequent convolution) of the criminal and probate courts involved in the case; not once compromising simplicity in lieu of my ward’s rights. Ultimately, the charges for my family member were dropped and the fears of his well-being and safety have been lifted from my family’s hearts. Without question I recommend Jim Burnham. RID: 144775
