Kay Burningham is a trial attorney with over twenty five years experience in personal injury litigation.  As a former insurance defense attorney, her clients included individuals and businesses insured with such insurance carriers as Allstate, State Farm and GEICO. 

She spent 15 of the last 25 years practicing in California where she served as a Superior Court Judge Pro Tem and Court Appointed Arbitrator.  She has litigated cases in Utah, San Diego, Orange County and San Francisco, California.  She has successfully tried wrongful death, product liability, health care malpractice and numerous motor vehicle collision cases both for the defense and the plaintiff.  She is a former member of the California Trial Lawyers (Consumer Attorneys of California) and a current member of the American Association for Justice formerly (ATLA) and Utah Association for Justice formerly (UTLA).

Ms. Burningham left the defense firm of Shifflet, Sharp and Walters in San Diego, California, several months after being involved in a motor vehicle collision on the San Diego Freeway.  After years of arguing for the defense, she found herself the victim of a freeway chase and spin out.  She sustained significant neck and back injuries with permanent nerve damage.  As a result of that experience, she left defense work and began working to represent those injured through the negligence of others.  She has represented plaintiffs since 1991, first in her own practice in San Diego County and now, in her Utah Practice.

Ms. Burningham is regularly associated as trial counsel with a number of attorneys in California and Utah. Licensed in three states (inactive in Colorado) she is an active member of the Utah and California Bar Associations.  She is a 1973 graduate of Bountiful High School, a 1982 graduate of J.
