Attorney Denise Burke O'Brien Continues Legacy

ince the 1970s, Burke & Sullivan, PLLC has been the go-to law practice for all things real estate. Located in the historic Village of Southampton and serving clients in the towns of East Hampton, Southampton, and Shelter Island, the firm specializes in real estate transactions and land-use related issues. The Independent caught up with Denise Burke O’Brien, daughter of Edward Burke, Sr., a retired judge and real estate attorney on the East End, to elaborate on the family legacy and what to know for those looking to sell or buy their dream Hamptons home.

You specialize in real estate law. How did you find your niche? I grew up in Sag Harbor, and back in the 1970s and ’80s, when land was plentiful, my dad, Edward Burke Sr., began purchasing many acres of vacant land in Noyac as well as a number of improved parcels. As a result thereof, my interest in real estate was piqued at an early age. He has since developed all of his properties, and I can assure you that our legal background in both real estate and land use has been essential in navigating our way through the tedious development process.
