“I was one of those weird kids who always wanted to be a lawyer,” Attorney Kathryn Burmeister says. And in high school, as she pored through literature like To Kill A Mockingbird and Letter From a Birmingham Jail, she began to understand why.
“I liked the idea of being a voice for the voiceless and standing up for something to make a change,” Burmeister explains.
So it’s probably no surprise that, once in law school, she gravitated toward the personal injury practice area. “I fell in love with it,” she says. “You can help a lot of people in the legal profession but, in particular, with personal injury, it’s more rewarding.”
And since her passion for law began early, it’s probably even less surprising that she now runs her own practice, Burmeister Law Firm, offering a broad range of legal services involving personal injury matters.
