Michael D. Burt
Family Law Specialist
With a high level of dedication to each and every client that comes to him for help, Attorney Michael D. Burt is passionate about helping individuals with family law cases. His career began after he graduated with his Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of California at Santa Barbara. While pursuing his education at UCSB, he received high honors and distinction within his major as well as being nominated into the Golden Key Honors Society. A few years later, he received his Juris Doctor from the Southwestern University School of Law where he served as the Chairperson of the Honors Trail Advocacy Team. It is here that he began his experience in understanding how to handle trial cases.
After finishing law school, Attorney Burt joined forces with a high-profile firm. He spent a good portion of his time defending product liability cases involving national corporations. Providing cases to support government entities including Los Angeles County was another one of his responsibilities while at the firm. Through all of this, he gained invaluable experience in knowing how to navigate court proceedings and legal processes.
Taking this familiarity of the legal system and his skills in handling court cases, he determined that he would focus all of his time towards something he was passionate about. Since then he has devoted all of his time to family law, serving clients from all over the United States as well as some international cases. With his zealous attitude and commitment to bringing about the best result for all of his clients, you can count on him to fight for your rights in any case. Sensible and level-headed, he will always aim to make decisions that are reasonable and cost-effective. There is no divorce case too messy for him to handle or any family law issue too complicated for him to assist you with.
