D. JEFFREY BURNHAM

“My mother was a medical professional, so I’ve long had an affinity toward the profession and health care providers. It’s always struck me deeply that these individuals are doing their best, day in and day out, and still they get hit with a lawsuit. I feel honored to help them through the process.”

A PROVEN TRACK RECORD DEFENDING THE HEALTH CARE PROFESSION

Jeff Burnham has dedicated his career to defending physicians and healthcare professionals. Whether mounting a medical negligence defense or handling licensing challenges, or going to bat for clients dealing with insurance coverage or employment issues, Jeff is steadfastly tough-minded and disciplined, yet always calm and personable.

DEDICATED AND COMMITTED—IN THE COURTROOM, IN THE COMMUNITY

For Jeff, a work-life balance is more than just a good concept. It’s what makes him a good lawyer. In addition to his busy law practice and robust family life, Jeff also finds time to give back through coaching, working with youth groups, and serving in non-profit organizations.
