Testimonials

“I recently hired Mr. Burns to represent me in my child support/custody case . I had consulted with other local attorneys in the area before meeting with Erik . While they seemed disinterested in what I had to say , Erik immediately said he would take my case. From the very beginning , I could tell how passionate he is about what he does ! He treated me like more than just another client . He treated me like a friend or a family member. I could really tell he cared . Erik kept me informed through every step of the process and was always there to answer any questions I had . He and his secretary were always available for me whenever I called or emailed them ! Erik was extremely diligent in researching every aspect of my case to ensure he got me the best possible results . Erik fought for me and my daughter every step of the way , without fail ! Erik not only won my case for me but he got me even more than I had initially expected . If you are looking for an attorney that will fight for you and your family like he would fight for his own then Erik Burns is the attorney for you! I promise you that you will not be disappointed !!!!”

“Erik Burns is a great guy and he is a GREAT attorney. I mean GREAT! Erik is fair and level headed. I retained Erik to represent me in a family law case regarding child support and also a full trial for community property. Erik was prepared. He was thorough in his research and could anticipate the possible positions of the other side and what would be acceptable to the judge. He is a great negotiator. I used other attorneys prior to finding Erik and they were experts at dragging out the process and over billing. Erik was a total opposite, he was Godsend. Erik got it done. He works fast and he’s thorough. Thank you Erik for your hard work and dedication to my case. I really felt that Erik had my best interest at heart. I highly recommend Erik Burns to anyone who needs a great attorney.”

“Erik Burns has been our attorney for 15 years and has helped us through some of the most stressful times of our lives. He started out as our professional attorney and developed into a dear friend willing to assist in any way we required while dealing with our very difficult child custody situations. I have seen the respect offered from judges and other law professionals in the Livingston area while on our many trips to the courthouse tending to legal needs of our children. I am sure there are many qualified attorneys in Livingston but Erik Burns has by far been the most caring , passionate and understanding attorney we have hired to guide us through some of the most difficult times of our lives. I hope no one ever needs an attorney but if you do, Erik Burns would be my first choice.”

“I would like to say that Attorney Erik Burns is outstanding, and without his legal counsel I would still be fighting desperately in child custody for visitation right with my daughter. Through Attorney Burns’ keen understanding of Child Custody Laws, I was able to obtain not only custodial rights, but actually Sole-custody when my daughter was seven years old. After three years, I still maintain this status with my daughter and am looking forward to celebrating her 11th birthday.”

“Attorney Erik L. Burns is outstanding in his legal profession. Without his legal counsel, I would still be fighting for visitation rights with my daughter. Attorney Burns not only got me custodial rights, but actually Sole-Custody when my daughter was seven years old. Over three years later, I still maintain Sole-Custody of my daughter and look forward to celebrating her 11th Birthday. Each day is a celebration where I get to share the joy watching my daughter experience new daily events.”
