in police misconduct cases. Born and raised in Vallejo, California, Burris obtained a
bachelor of science in accounting from Golden Gate University, a master's
in business administration from U.C. Berkeley Graduate School of Business,
and a law degree from U.C. Berkeley School of Law, Boalt Hall in 1973. Burris
began his legal career as a general litigator at Jenner and Block in Chicago; later
becoming a prosecutor at the Cook County State's Attorney Office. When he returned
to the Bay Area, he worked as a prosecutor at the Alameda County District Attorney's
Office. In 1979, he entered private practice with Harris, Alexander, and Burris. He
started the Law Office of John L. Burris in 1985. The firm focused initially on criminal
defense, later focusing on victims of police misconduct, as well as racial and sexual
discrimination. In 1999, Burris wrote the book, BLUE VS. BLACK. Let's End The
Conflict Between Cops and Minorities.
Known for handling high profile and controversial cases, some of Burris' notable
clients have included Rodney King, Tupac Shakur, D'Wayne Wiggins,
NBA basketball stars Gary Payton and Jason Kidd, actor Delroy Lindo and many public
officials and employees. After the 1998 bombing of American Embassies in Nairobi,
Kenya and Dares Salaam, Tanzania, The Law Office of John L. Burris, and other
California law firms represented over 5,000 victims of the terrorist acts.
Burris is married to North Carolina Central University Law Professor, Cheryl
Amana and between them they have nine children.
