About Judd Burstein

Judd Burstein helms Judd Burstein, P.C., a three lawyer boutique litigation firm. The philosophy of the firm is that litigation is itself a separate discipline that requires skills that can only be developed through extensive courtroom experience actually trying cases involving a broad variety of legal issues. In addition, Mr. Burstein is regarded as a leading appellate lawyer who has handled well over 100 federal and state appeals.

In essence, Mr. Burstein believes that the ability to communicate with judges and jurors, the trial skill of cross-examination, and the ability to develop overall litigation strategy are skills far more important to victory than a specialty in a particular area of the law. Knowledge of the substantive law underlying a case can be easily secured by the litigator through study and expert assistance. Most litigators who specialize in just one area, such as patents or bankruptcy, simply do not have the breadth of experience or confidence in their litigation talents to make use of that talent and experience in a broad number of areas. In contrast, by the time a case comes to trial, Mr. Burstein, through the course of trial preparation, necessarily secures the very knowledge and experience he may not have possessed at the time of his retention.

The value of Mr. Burstein as a lawyer is not restricted to his ability to win cases. In addition, he has a history of securing very favorable settlements for clients because adversaries are aware of Mr. Burstein’s reputation as a trial lawyer and his love of the courtroom.
