Services
Alleviating worries that injured people face and helping them rise to their challenges is what Koles & Burke, LLP, is about. We have dedicated our careers to providing the support and advocacy that people need while recovering from injuries caused by motor vehicle, workplace and slip-and-fall accidents and more.
John takes great pride in helping working men and women in New Jersey get back on their feet when they have been injured in an accident.

Any motor vehicle accident can be a major loss event in someone's life. You may have been seriously injured as a driver, passenger, pedestrian, bicyclist or motorcyclist. You may have lost a loved one in any such crash or a train, bus or boating accident. Auto accidents: Rear-enders, sideswipe accidents, T-bone accidents and multicar accidents.
A client's long-term well-being is the focus of every personal injury case that we take on at Koles & Burke, LLP. If you were injured in a car accident, a slip-and-fall accident, a botched surgical operation, a workplace accident or an accident involving a defective product, we are on your side from Day One.
When you are injured on the job, you likely qualify to bring a workers' compensation claim right away. Workers' compensation should cover your medical care and if you miss work for longer than a week, it may replace some of your lost income. However, workers' compensation benefits are often insufficient to cover the full costs of a serious or catastrophic injury.

I contacted Koles, Burke & Bustillo,L.L.P because the firm I was using prior had made so many mistakes on my case.
I couldn't get appointments with physical therapists, doctors or anything else - the firm wouldn't even get back to me when I called, this went on for so long and i had enough.
The week I hired Raoul Bustillo he was like a whirlwind. He took over my case and got things done right away! That week I was going to PT and to the right doctors. He had changed the whole case around in my favor. I was so stressed out before and when he took over I was able to relax and rely on my new attorney

I used Raoul Bustillo Esq when I was injured at work. Raoul is very professional and personal. He was very understanding about my injury as well as respectful about my time. He did everything in his power to expedite my case. He answered my all of questions and my countless phone calls. I felt that I was his number one client no matter how many times I called.
Raoul is an excellent lawyer and a gentleman. Thank you Raoul for all your help with my case.

Back in 2008 I had an accident at work and I was referred here by my friend who use to work with them. Raul was my attorney for this case. Went to many doctors and treatments. When we went to court for the settlement, I was shocked to see how the process works. At least a dozen people went ahead of me for their settlements. I learned at that time I definitely made the right choice. My workers comp settlement was about 3 times more versus all the people ahead of me (some of these people were minor and some I felt were worse situations than myself) I highly recommend them. Now in 2019 I Have gone

Raul Bustillo is the lawyer you want. Stop looking around! Since I was a child I wanted to be a lawyer. I didn’t know all it entailed but I knew it was about fighting for what you think is right, fighting for justice. When I grew up I realized I oversimplified the concept but I always kept present those characteristics that those defending mostly people through the interpretation of laws should always possess: the courage, intelligence and passion to fight for what’s right in a court of law. I recently had the opportunity to see mister Bustillo defending a case in a criminal court where the

Four years ago i was in a car accident that totaled my car and really messed up my neck and shoulder. The last thing i thought about was going into a "suit" with the person who caused the accident. I found myself not knowing where or who to turn to. A friend suggested Mr Raoul Bustillo and a week later i met with him regarding my accident.
Today i am happy to say that Raoul assisted me every step of the way , and won my case. This entire process can be intimidating and frustrating but no matter how many times i called him or reached out he was there for me. His office staff is wonderful and his

I was a victim of Mortgage Fraud, John Burke, Esq. from our very first meeting patiently informed me what steps needed to be taken immediately. From then on his knowledge of how the law applied to me was invaluable. I will be forever grateful (of course, by no means was it easy, but -- we won my case)!
