A Trial Lawyer Built for the Courtroom
Robert “Bo” Burke is a partner and the lead trial attorney at Morrison & Hughes. His practice centers on personal injury litigation — trucking and car crashes, premises liability and slip-and-falls, and dram shop claims — along with construction defect and business disputes that demand a courtroom-ready advocate.
Bo studied at Berry College in Rome, Georgia, and earned his law degree with honors from the Charleston School of Law in 2011. He has spent more than a decade litigating in Georgia's courts and serves as the firm's lead trial attorney, the lawyer the team turns to when a case is headed for a jury.
His results speak for themselves. Bo has recovered millions for his clients, including a $20 million judgment in 2024, along with verdicts and settlements of $3.5 million, $3 million, $2.1 million, $1.5 million, and more. Insurance companies know that when Bo is on a case, the threat of trial is real.
Bo lives in Decatur, Georgia, and brings a relentless, prepare-for-trial mindset to every client he represents — because the willingness to try a case is what gives a client real leverage.
