Preparation and filing of IRS 501C3 application.

The Right Lawyer

As a supervising Planner for a mid-sized NJ City for over 20 years, I have the opportunity to work with many attorneys. Judith O'Donnell is a pleasure to work with. She is also the most consistent in her ability to win cases. Her arguments have prevailed in her cases for the City. She is excelle...nt in court and thorough in her research and preparation, always extending her best effort to her clients.

We have found Judith to be one of the most professional, knowledgeable, hardworking and well-prepared attorneys we have ever dealt with. I would not hesitate to use her for all our real estate legal needs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a smart, aggressive and detail-oriented attorney.... In addition to these important traits, she is accessible and returns phone calls and emails promptly---a rarity these days.

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
