Overview

Choosing a law firm is an important personal decision. It is crucial to feel at ease with the attorney who will be assisting you with your claim.

When selecting a law firm, consider who will primarily handle your case – the attorney you hire or their support staff. Larger firms, due to their size, must manage substantial caseloads to sustain their operations. Clients may find that their case lacks the personal attention it deserves. Frequently, after hiring an attorney at a large firm, the client's interaction with that attorney becomes limited. Instead, their case might be managed by a junior associate or an assistant.

Burneikis Law operates differently from large firms. Founded with a commitment to providing thoughtful representation to each client, we choose cases intentionally and ensure that our caseload allows for maintaining strong client relationships while addressing legal needs. Burneikis Law remains a smaller firm by choice, focusing on delivering personal attention to each client.
