John Burke has helped me on several legal matters and gave me 100% of his attention and was extremely thorough in all the details. He was easy and enjoyable to work with. John put my interests first and was focused on the best solution for me, rather than simply finding billable hours.

I was having issues settling a hail claim with my insurance company and I sat down with John, explained my situation, and he took over and aggressively pursued what I was entitled to and recovered 100% of my loss.

John is the hardest working attorney you will ever find. He worked on our case day and night and covered every base. You won't find a more proficient, intelligent, ethical, fair attorney than John Burke.

John is an extremely intelligent, well thought out lawyer, who I felt acted at all times with my best interest in mind. He, throughout this stressful process, made me feel as though he was continually working to be as informed and knowledgeable about my case as possible. With his communication skills, due diligence, hard work, and belief in his abilities, we were able to achieve my desired outcome. John is truly a great lawyer!

John Burke represented us with a lawsuit during a traffic accident which I was involved in while riding my motorcycle where the other person was at fault. John was always honest with us and explained things on a level that a common person was able to understand. The assistance he provided to us went far beyond his duties as an attorney, we also have a new friend because of it all. thanks again John!!!!!!

John Burke has helped us through a very difficult time and battle, he doesn’t give up and doesn’t take no for an answer. He is compassionate about his clients and what he does. John and his staff are always there to answer my questions no matter how big or small the question. I recommend John to anyone that would like a lawyer that cares about what happens to you and your family and will fight until the very end.

John Burke is an excellent, conscientious attorney who dedicates himself to his clients’ specific needs and issues. His pre-trial preparation is detailed and focused on preparing the case (as well as his clients) for the best defense in the courtroom. He is supported by a staff of legal aides and fellow partners who provide an additional layer of knowledge and research. When I walked into the courtroom with John I was proud and confident in the knowledge that I had the best possible represent

Our experience with John Burke was and is completely positive. He was very professional and worked very hard to get us an excellent settlement. He was a tenacious investigator and knew a wide range of subject matter experts to call on for the facts. He and his staff were always available to talk and answer questions at any time of day. We enjoyed working with John and his staff!!! I would recommend him to anyone in a similar situation. South Dakota
