Customer Reviews for J. Franklin Burns, P.C.

Hired Law firm 2019-2020I recently had to hire a Worker Compensation Attorney, The legal representation I hired, Karisa Klee, was very professional and informative on how such a case is handled and what to expect. I had daily access to being able to communicate with her. Everything from documentation, appointments with medical doctors, reimbursement for expenditures to appointments, etc. She was very understanding and even situations of my employ that I thought were possibly relevant she reviewed and if applicable to my case was very good about explaining how it might or might not be relevant. I now know more about how worker’s compensation laws work and that if I had known more I definitely would have hired her from day one to make sure I got the full advantage of what I should get out of my settlement. I definitely recommend Ms Klee and the firm J Franklin Burns for anyone who needs professional help in a worker’s compensation case.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
