Hi, I'm Jordan Burroughs, the founder and managing attorney at DEFY LLC. With over a decade of experience in legal advocacy, I built this firm on the belief that every individual deserves sharp, committed, and fearless legal representation.
Before founding DEFY LLC, I worked in both public defense and corporate law. I’ve seen how the system can overwhelm people—and I chose to stand on the side of those who need someone to fight for them, not against them.
Every case I take is personal. Every client I meet deserves not just legal help — but someone who truly listens and stands by them when it matters most.
I’ve won more cases than I’ve lost, but each outcome has shaped me. Victory teaches confidence. Defeat teaches humility, patience, and the need to work harder. Both have made me a better attorney — and a better human.
I didn’t grow up dreaming of being a lawyer. I found this path when I realized how many people feel powerless when facing legal problems. I wanted to be the person who gives them clarity, strength, and a fighting chance.
Because it’s real. It’s not just paperwork and courtrooms — it’s people. Their lives. Their futures. There’s nothing more fulfilling than hearing someone say, “You helped me when no one else would.”
This is more than a job. It’s a responsibility — and an honor.
