Marty is kind, personable and most of all very knowledgeable. We had a very informative meeting with Marty regarding my grandmother who went from being able to live on her own to needing in home care. He was able to clearly communicate what our next steps are.

Zero stars if I could! I made an appointment with Attorney Marty Burbank to get some preliminary trust information for my elderly parents, who do not drive much anymore. Mr. Burbank was referred by a close friend, so I was hopeful he would be an "honest attorney", not just in it for the money. I also saw his work with veterans, like my dad, which was also reassuring. Well, I was wrong!!! Mr. Burbank wanted to charge me a $500 consultation fee just because my parents were not going to be with me for this first appointment. Was not even granted the courtesy to explain why. Question answered. - money hungry! Go some where else folks!!! read more

During our free consultation, Attorney Marty Burbank appeared to be on top of all our questions. When Marty presented us with a contract, it did not cover our discussions' full scope. He did not offer a price for a retainer, instead, we discovered he held back on the final request because he planned to have us pay a second sum for the 3rd part. This would have added up to more than $9000 with an initial deposit of $4,500 and no limitations on his billing. We also realize if we had not uncovered his plans from the beginning, we would have had to start from scratch since another attorney would not ethically start with us in the middle of another attorney's work. We call this Bait and Switch. Lawyers are supposed to protect their clients not manipulate them. read more

Terrible legal firm to deal with. When we were about to have an irrevocable trust prepared and delivered we received a copy of their contract which obviously were filled with legal laguage wherein an average client such as we are failed to comprehend in detail. When asked to clarify and explain their contract we were rebuffed and claimed we were claiming unnecessaryexpended time and demanded a $380 per hour legal service! Crooked! read more

I contacted Marty Burbank for a consultation regarding my friend who was on life support and did not have a will or an advance directive. I knew that my friend wanted to make sure her elderly father was taken care of. It is a complicated situation with multiple properties and accounts and a host of relatives that my friend did not want to interfere with her money going to her father. Marty took the time to listen to the entire situation and discuss the legalities that we are dealing with. He explained what to expect from probate. His advice allowed me to breathe easier knowing that my friend's wishes, despite not having a will, can come to fruition. He even offered to come into his office on a Saturday to meet with my friend's father to discuss a POA and a Trust. I was so impressed with Marty that I will be bringing him my personal business to him to establish a trust for my children.
