I understand that I can't get help because she is my ex's attorney... However when informing someone of that, and being told he wad no longer a client... YOU DON'T NEED TO BE RUDE AND SNIPPY WITH SOMEONE ON THE PHONE.. ON TOP IF THAT YOU DONE CALL SOMEONE ELSE'S CLIENT A NUT CASE.. YOUTH ONLY EVER HEAR ONE SIDE.. CAN'T BASE AN OPINION OF SOMEONE ON THAT

She was completely rude and left us worse off then we were

Absolutely horrible lawyer.

Retained Aug 2017 paid 1500.00 for nothing. Worst Lawyer ever.

IF YOU ARE READING THIS PLEASE TAKE WARNING NOT TO GIVE THIS CON-WOMAN OR HER "firm" A DOLLAR. SHE IS AWFUL AT LAW. She is absolutely worthless as an attorney who allegedly fights for her clients children.... Got NOTHING accomplished of what she GARUNTEED for 1500 bucks upfront. Said for 1500 she would simply get my weekend visits back I had won (with a REAL attorney PAUL HENRY) ... Went to court and Susan did NOTHING but sit in the judges chambers so as we couldn't hear anything she did. Came to court and she refused to field ANY of my perfectly normal requests to ask for anything. I walked away with TWO ONE HOUR SUPERVISED VISITS PER MONTH ALL THE WAY IN CAPE GIRARDEAU.... that I had to pay for. She then sent me a BILL Hahahahahaha. She is WORTHLESS.

She is one of the most compassionate and professional people I have met in the legal arena. Her commitment to clients and willingness to make payment arrangements is unparalleled to anyone else in the area. She absolutely loves children and will go the extra mile to see that they are safe! I have never seen someone work harder!! Many attorneys are in it for the money, but Susan truly cares about the issues her clients are dealing with. Sure she doesn't want to deal with nonsense, but who would? When you're as good as she is, you shouldn't have to! Excellent representation, Reasonable fees, Extensive experience - that's what you get with Susan Burger!

Susan Burger is the worst attorney that had ever walked this earth! she gave me a flat rate for my case and I paid it in the very begging. I just spoke with her and because my case has taken this long she just withdrew as my attorney because I told her she didn't have to be rude. She told me I have to pay more because court has lasted this long, BUT I've only had her since like June and she has only been to maybe four court appearances. She told me it might not sound like a big deal to me but it is to her. So I flat out told her that all she does is sit there anyway. So she hung up on me! Looks like I will be filing and representing myself!!! She is god awful and no on get her!! She doesn't need to work for families!!! She does NOT DESERVE ANY STARS!! HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE

I had to help her find her way out of the courthouse.

I have worked cases against Susan and can honestly say she is a great attorney. Many people tend to view attorney's negatively in divorce situations because it is expensive and the results are fair, but usually not desirable for the clients. If someone's case doesn't go well, the tendency is to blame the attorney. I would definitely recommend Susan and do regularly to friends and family.

She's handled cases for me I have no complaints. Always took care of business .

Wish I had these reviews before I flushed my money down the Susan Burger toilet. She should be disbarred. Takes your money, lies to your face and does not do her job, all while pretending like she's your biggest advocate. Hire ANYONE else.

She is by far one of thee worst I've seen in this area in a very long time. Overhearing her belittle and degrade her clients in their face and behind their back lead me to seek help elsewhere & I'm glad I did. She doesn't even deserve 1 star ratings. If you were considering Susan Burger, please reconsider, QUICKLY

She "represented" my husband. Because of a language barrier, I mostly communicated and conveyed our concerns, however, I was met with arrogance, belittling, and overall rudeness. My husband sometimes texted her and his grammar mistakes led her to reply, "Speak English"...Finally fed up, I wrote her an email and her last line said, "don't expect miracles" and that moment I replied and told her my exact thoughts to which she then replied that I "stay out of this" and to "stay away from her", because according to her, I was the problem. I forwarded all emails between us to show her that I was nothing less of polite and respectful only to have her attempt to dismantle my strength and to fight for my husband's innocence. Fired her on the spot and retained a new attorney-- a breath of fresh air from Susan Burger. I will never recommend anyone to her.

Horrible

if I could do zero stars I would!! Avoid at all cost, she did nothing about my case after we parted ways I found out from talking to other attorneys and other people just how true her previous rating were. I been battling a scorn mother for over a yr and am yet to even get to court. she got pushed around by my ex's attorney and did nothing about it. Honestly doubt she every cared about me, my son, or the case in general, and her answer to my ex being in contempt of court is my retainer is running low. She is the perfect example of stigma about attorneys. Just female. Even if she was to do it pro-bono I would avoid.

This woman stole $1500 from me. Did not keep me informed. I would call to reach her, no return call.
Finally get a hold of her and she tells me it is all over and then hangs up on me. She did nothing on my case. NOTHING!
One star because you have to click something to register.
THIS WOMAN WILL RIP YOU OFF!
If she has ripped you off, please leave a review.

Beware of this lady. Was told she would take my case, and then 4 days before my court day I was told to find a different attorney. Could never get in touch with her. For a week I was told she is out sick, then 4 days before court I was told she's in the hospital find a new attorney. When I hired my new attorney I was told "she wasn't sick she was in court today". Very unreliable. Beware.
