Burnham Law

Who We Are

Burnham Law’s Boulder office represents individuals, families and businesses in family law, civil litigation, criminal defense and probate matters. Our attorneys handle everything from divorce and child custody disputes to business conflicts, criminal charges and contested estate matters. What connects those cases is often the same thing: something important is at stake, and the client needs a clear strategy for what comes next.

Founded by Todd Burnham, Burnham Law has grown into a multi-office litigation firm serving clients across Colorado and Arizona. The firm brings together attorneys with experience in negotiation, mediation and courtroom litigation, allowing each matter to be approached according to its facts rather than through a one-size-fits-all process.

Client Reviews and Reputation

Burnham Law has served thousands of clients, and feedback about the firm can be found across Google, Avvo, Lawyers.com and other major legal and local review platforms. Across its offices and attorneys, the firm has accumulated hundreds of public client reviews and testimonials covering family law, criminal defense, civil litigation and probate matters.

Those reviews reflect experiences with attorneys and legal teams throughout the firm. Clients frequently discuss the preparation that went into their cases, communication with attorneys and staff, strategic guidance during difficult decisions and representation in negotiation and court. Todd Burnham also holds a 10.0 Avvo rating, and attorneys throughout Burnham Law have received recognition from Super Lawyers and other established legal organizations.

We believe client feedback matters because legal representation is ultimately experienced one case and one client at a time. Awards and professional recognition provide one measure of a law firm, while the experiences shared by former clients provide another.

Our Philosophy

We believe strong legal representation begins with understanding the problem before deciding how to solve it. That means listening carefully, identifying what matters most to the client and looking beyond the immediate dispute to consider the longer-term consequences of each decision.

Some cases call for a negotiated solution. Others require a firm position and thorough preparation for court. Our attorneys are comfortable with both. We work to give clients an honest assessment of where they stand, explain the available options clearly and develop a strategy suited to their individual circumstances.

At the Boulder office, that approach applies whether we are helping a parent through a custody dispute, defending someone facing criminal charges, representing a business in litigation or resolving a contested probate matter. Clients should understand what is happening in their case, why a particular course of action is being recommended and what they can expect as the matter moves forward.

Burnham Law combines careful preparation with practical judgment and experienced advocacy. Our goal is not simply to move a case through the legal system, but to help each client reach the strongest practical resolution available under the circumstances.
