Who We Are
Burrows & Stutsman is a group of highly skilled civil litigators with more than 40 years of combined experience defending our clients at every level of the litigation process.
We are committed to providing our clients with an aggressive, dynamic, and targeted defense strategy focused on achieving the best possible results, whether through mediation, arbitration, law & motion, or trial in both California and Federal courts.
What We Do
We protect our clients from the perils of litigation
Accidents happen, and when they do, our clients rely on Burrows & Stutsman to help them through it. We have dedicated our careers to helping individuals and businesses, both small and large, navigate the complexities of civil litigation when those inevitable accidents do occur. Our dedicated and experienced team of litigators have extensive backgrounds in transportation, product liability, hospitality, property management, construction, public entity defense, business litigation, and more.
Any law firm can provide a cookie cutter defense for their clients. At Burrows + Stutsman, we work tirelessly to understand the nuances of each particular case so we can develop and recommend a dynamic, hard-hitting, and targeted defense strategy focused on obtaining the most favorable results possible and providing our clients with first rate legal representation. We work to protect our clients and to walk them through the litigation process with as little disruption to their lives as possible.
Our Results
The overwhelming majority of lawsuits resolve behind the scenes through mediation or other settlement devices, often confidentially. But those that don’t settle provide the parties with an opportunity to plead their case in a public forum – the courtroom. Burrows + Stutsman is proud to boast an impressive track record of vindicating their clients in open court.
