Episode description

Words like desperation, rock bottom, and adversity probably don’t inspire the best of feelings in people. But for Todd Burnham, embracing these extremes has led him to become one of the most successful litigators in the country.

A two-time All American NCAA Lacrosse Star from Hobart College and graduate from Albany Law School, Todd is the founding partner of Burnham Law, one of the top rated law firms in the country with offices spread across the Western United States. He’s also the host of the Deep Bench Podcast, and author of the book “Comeback: Epic Rebound Strategies for Personal or Business Adversity.”

Starting from a basement practice, Todd has built a career around intensely focused service, not just to his clients, and to those he coaches, but to his immediate community. Todd is a member of the Executive Board of Directors for the nonprofit organization Von’s Vision, providing low-income Denver youth with corrective eyewear and quality eye care. He is a former executive board member of the nonprofit Boulder Interdisciplinary Committee, a team of professionals focused on educating and supporting individuals working in the family law arena.

We caught up with Todd to talk about his practice, his book, and how with the right mindset, embracing desperation, rock bottom, and adversity can actually help you build (or re-build) you and your company, into a stronger, more resilient group.
