Hired Attorney Mr. Zachary Burkhalter

Zach is a knowledgeable, effective, and efficient attorney who will take your case seriously and work diligently on your behalf. As soon as I hired Zach as my attorney, he immediately took action to get my case in motion and helped negotiate a favorable settlement. He’s also a genuine and down to earth guy who you can talk to without feeling judged or intimidated. If I ever find myself in need of legal services in the future, I would hire him in a heartbeat!

Hired Attorney Mr. Zachary Burkhalter

If I could give 10 stars I would, 5 stars doesn't do Zach justice! The first awesome thing was that he was recommended to me while I was in jail on a bogus probation revocation (and *spoiler ,[*>* my probation wasn't revoked) and when I contacted him he didn't turn me away or promise to look into my case only to dismiss me as waste of time, no he listened and then looked into it and actually did everything he said he would. He gave me a piece of mind and the compassion he has for the people he helps is real. Hes been a blessing to me and my family. He's not only a great lawyer who knows his stuff but he's also a good man! I appreciate you Zach!

Hireing this attorney was one of the best decisions I made. He is extremely knowledgeable and attentive. After my charges got dropped to a lesser offense, i was having difficulty obtaining my drivers license back and he stayed on top of it until DDS did their job. Very pleased with his services

Hired Attorney Mr. Zachary Burkhalter

If you are in the market for a lawyer and need piece of mind for whatever reason. Based on my recent experience with this young man this is your guy. This was my first time ever getting in trouble and I had no clue how to approach my situation. I was pulled over for a seatbelt violation and was taken to jail for a dui needless to say my first dui. Once I bonded out I started looking for someone to help guide me on how to fight this thing. I went to several law offices and most were out of my price range and others seemed to only want to talk about how much it was going to cost me showing very little interest in how they were going to help me. I found Zach and he was the only one who didn't mention money until he had a pretty good idea of what we were looking at. He shot me straight once we went over the situation he laid it out for me explaining step by step what we were going to do. Skip to and I have no DUI convection it was negotiated down to reckless driving with 3 months probation

Hired Attorney Mr. Zachary Burkhalter

He was VERY kind & supportive of me & my case. He worked hard, because my case was complicated by my medical issues & he was VERY aggressive with the cop, & caught him in several statments that was not true. I really appreciate the time he took & he was well worth the money, cause he got me the not guilty verdict that I deserved! Thank you Zachary, ur Awesome!! 💯💖

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
