John Burkhead

John Burkhead joined The Law Offices of Frank L. Branson in 2010 and brings a single-minded focus to championing the causes of firm clients. He has become a key asset to the firm's team approach to litigation, which quickly assembles expert resources and uses courtroom technology to deliver powerful messages to juries, judges, and opposing counsel. "Being the client's champion starts with hard work," he says. "From the very start of litigation, the attorneys at this firm make a point of setting the pace and making sure that our side has an absolute command of the facts and issues at play." Burkhead has been named to the Lawdragon 500 Leading Plaintiff Consumer Lawyers list (2024-2026), Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch (2022-2025), and Texas Super Lawyers (2025) after nine years as a Texas Rising Star, and D Magazine recognized him among the Best Lawyers Under 40 in 2018.
