Toby W. Burke

Vice President, Risk Management

“Without ambition one starts nothing.  Without work, one finishes nothing.  The prize will not be sent to you.  You have to win it.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

Toby Burke completed his undergraduate degree in accounting at Texas A&M University, where he was a member of the Corps of Cadets and received an active-duty commission upon graduation in 1986. After serving five years in the U.S. Army, he resigned his commission to attend law school, graduating magna cum laude from St. Mary’s University School of Law, where he served on the editorial board of the St. Mary’s Law Journal. During this transition, he also passed all sections of the CPA exam, providing him with a strong foundation in assisting and counseling on business-related matters.

Before joining Imperial Construction as full-time in-house counsel, Toby practiced law at a major insurance defense firm in San Antonio and later at Harrison Steck, P.C. in Fort Worth, where he served as President immediately before his employment with Imperial Construction, Inc. His legal practice focused on construction law, representing general contractors, subcontractors, owners, and design professionals in matters including construction and design defects, breach of contract, lien and bond claims, and OSHA violations. He has tried cases involving OSHA citations before administrative law judges and has argued OSHA cases before the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.

At Imperial Construction, Toby serves as in-house counsel, safety officer, and risk manager, drawing on his legal, military, and financial background to support the company’s operations and compliance efforts.
