Burnham Law - Boulder Family Lawyers

"In response to Burnham Law: apparently it is not, because I was just able to finalize my divorce without it, with the professional help of a different law firm that didn't push me into the use of a business evaluator. Also, let's be 100% transparent and honest here. You had 3 months to tell me about a 'knowing waiver'. Instead, your lawyers told me EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE all that time, i.e. that no specialists would be needed in case of an amicable settlement. Happy to share those emails to show other people about your very shady handling of my case. Only when you learned we were headed for a settlement outside of court and in the advanced stages of reaching a full agreement (i.e. no more money for you) did you mention a business evaluator was 'indispensable'. You were clearly trying to push for more conflict = more money. Extremely bad practice that falls within the sad cliche of US law firms being all about money, not about people. ORIGINAL POST: Hired this firm for my divorce. Clearly communicated that I wanted an amicable settlement outside of court, even if this meant foregoing my husband’s business assets. This approach was confirmed and reiterated many times with my appointed lawyer Brian Lewis. Brian left the firm from one day to the next, I was appointed Mark Smith. At this time my husband and I had taken our own initiative to meet with a (non court ordered) mediator, with whom we made significant progress towards a resolution / settlement. In the midst of these negotiations Mark Smith started pushing for a business evaluator to evaluate my husband’s businesses even though I had made it very clear I did not want to pursue that. When I refused, they withdrew from my case. I had spent $18,000.00 to date with Burnham Law and had to start all over again with someone else. Clearly, Burnham Law was actively trying to push my case to court to get more money out of me."

"I'm a lawyer myself, and was seeking legal representation on a partition action and ending a bad relationship. I'm so lucky to have found Jared and his excellent legal team. Jared was professional all the while caring about what I was going through. In my particular circumstances I had a hard time finding a single law firm that could, or would be even willing to, handle everything from the property dispute to the personal issues I was facing. Jared and his team at Burnham Law handled it all. Jared was kind to my family in the face of adversity. He pulled through for us and fought for me as a lawyer should, and got the outcome that I wanted. I've been lucky enough to see great attorneys at work. Jared is one of those whom I admire both professionally and personally. He is the best of the best, and I couldn't recommend him more highly."

"I was very impressed by Burnham Law, and so thankful I retained them. I was up against a claim made against me that held no merit and was quickly dismissed from the case thanks to Laurel and team. What I appreciated most about them was that they were quick to respond, easy to speak with, and explained things well. I've never been sued before, nor had to spend time engaging with lawyers, so having a lawyer that took the time to explain what was going on and didn't treat me as less than, was wonderful. And, I never felt like they were trying to get the most money out of me as a client, in fact I felt the opposite. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for lawyers who are honest."

"It was an absolute pleasure working with Burnham Law. Their team is top notch and the best I've found. Jennifer Scott is an incredible lawyer who is passionate, genuine, dedicated, caring and goes the extra mile for her clients. We've worked with her over the past few years and would do it again in a heartbeat. She has a wonderful team supporting her. Erica, Taylor, Caroline, Krystal, and Sabrina (amongst others) were all fantastic to work with. Very professional, courteous and hard-working. I highly recommend working them."

"I just finished up a case with Burnham law. This is a great firm with great talent. Aaron Belzner and Ashlee Hoffman are whom you want to represent you in a litigation. I cannot thank my team enough for the work. Jared West a new attorney with the firm also helped out and is knowledgeable. The legal assistants were great Elizabeth played a great role. Keep in mind litigation is not cheap by any firm, however I do believe the billing was fair and straightforward. Thank you Mr. Burnham for the excellent attorneys and care. I do believe a good organization starts from the top. If you are at your wits end give them the chance to earn your business"
