        Thanks to my Attorney Zach Burkhalter’s hard work and diligence I had the best outcome possible. Because of his efforts with the DA we were able to get the charges dropped. He insured that truth and justice prevailed. I would recommend Zach Burkhalter to anyone that needs an attorney. Outstanding man and outstanding Attorney.

        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!

        Mr Burkhalter is very professional, thorough, communicates well, and explains the legal jargon. He looked at all the angles to successfully defend my DUI case. He is willing to work with you and listens. I would not hesitate to recommend him or use his services again.
