Intake Attorney

If You Want to Learn the Law, These are the Reps. You are the first point of contact for every prospective client who comes to Burnham Law - usually on one of the hardest days they have had. Different facts, different people, different problems, every single day. That volume is the fastest legal education there is. You will see more situations in a year here than most attorneys see in three. Some of them you will not have the answer to. That is the job working correctly. You will have a team behind you - attorneys who have tried these cases, who pick up the phone, and who will work the problem with you. Nobody figures it out alone here. Then you go practice. A small caseload of your own, so you keep sharpening the skills that make you good at the first call in the first place.
