Holding true to our founding vision . . .

From a modest beginning in 1987 with five Founding Members, to nearly 100 attorneys in nine offices across five states today, Burns White has stayed true to its original philosophy of partnering with our clients to ensure maximum return on their investment.

Even from the outset, Burns White had a national presence, thanks to widely-recognized excellence in railroad law. That excellence continues today, evidenced by the fact that in 2011 and 2010 Burns White was one of just 16 law firms in the country to be awarded a First-Tier National ranking in railroad law in the inaugural U.S. News & World Report/Best Lawyers® Best Law Firms Rankings.
