A Boutique Firm Built for High-Stakes Matters

Ferrelle Burns, P.A. is a boutique litigation firm built for high-stakes matters. With offices in Jacksonville, Florida, and Saint Simons, Georgia, the firm represents individuals, families, businesses, and athletes in complex trials, disputes and negotiations where results matter most.

The firm was founded by former partners of established firms, bringing together many decades of experience handling significant cases across diverse backgrounds. The firm is intentionally selective, focusing its time and resources on serious personal injury and wrongful death cases, sophisticated business, real estate and intellectual property disputes, specialized admiralty and maritime matters, and a growing sports and entertainment law practice.

Clients come to the firm for its rare combination of breadth and depth. While many firms concentrate on a single practice area, Ferrelle Burns operates at the intersection of multiple complex disciplines, always delivering strategic, trial-ready representation across every matter it accepts.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I wish for everyone that they have the fortunate experience of dealing with an ethical, bright, and compassionate lawyer such as you. You were diligent in putting all the facts together and researching any pertinent obscure securities laws. You paid close attention to my comments and concerns and factored them in throughout the case. You didn’t allow one important fact to fall through the cracks. That was a feat in itself!
