Biography
About Jeffrey A. Burns
Jeff Burns is one of the preeminent truck crash attorneys in the country. Over the span of his career he has not only tirelessly fought for justice for his clients, but more importantly, has worked on a national level to reform and change the trucking industry to be safer.
He has spent almost as much time in Washington D.C. as Kansas City educating the public and working for rule changes, stronger laws and stricter enforcement.
Jeff’s goal is to help trucking companies realize there is a return on investment when they institute or strengthen safety programs. There is less litigation, and drivers stay with companies longer when they see stronger safety rules as a genuine commitment to help protect them.
