Burns has drawn on his broad background growing up on a beef cattle farm to move analytical work with local government that have helped shape his perspective before law school. With 30+ years of experience in every facet of Family Law, he is a skilled negotiator and litigator in complex domestic relations matters. True to his background, the important legal matter is the current one facing his clients. His education and experience have equipped him with the ability to navigate these legal challengers and efficiently deliver results that are demanded.
Burns enjoys traveling, college sports, good food and his family and dog (not necessarily in this order).
