Dawn Marie Bates-Buchanan’s Reviews

If it wasn't for Dawn, I would not of made it through my divorce. Dawn gave me comfort, hope and a sence of not being controled by my spouse. She helped take some of the hurt away. I would never wish a divorce on any one. Also I would like to say thanks to Susanna Suvinskie, who recommened Dawn to me.

Ms. Bates-Buchanan was wonderful with me and all of questions about preparing a will, a trust, healthcare documents and was honest enough to tell me what I needed, what I didn't and did not charge me for what I did not need. I feel secure in knowning now that my assets are protected, that they will be given to the right people when I die and that I will be taken care of as well. I cannot thank her enough for her sweet ways and calm manner with me, and that she was always available to answer any question.

Ms. Buchanan always had patience with me. I had a tough family law case, which required many hearings, meetings with me and patience with me. Ms. Buchanan was compassionate, but honest enough to give me the real deal on what my options where and bring me back to reality when life was just too scary. Ms. Buchanan would take my calls and emails after hours and on weekends and would always be there for me. I know that she was sent from heaven to help me through my difficult time and save me from making terrible decisions and mistakes.

Dawn Marie Bates is a very committed attorney. This is not about making easy money. It’s about doing what is right and helping people in need. The greater the need the more dedicated she is. The most important thing about her is that she is patient, trustworthy and honest.
She is not afraid to stand her ground for what she believes is right and true by the law. She will not compromise her client’s safety and she is not afraid of taking her case to trial if necessary. She has no problem explaining the law and how the legal system works to her clients and if she doesn't have the answer she also has not problem seeking advice from her colleagues. I trust her completely. I would recommend her for anyone seeking honest advice and attorney services. I also believe that some day she will make a great judge. She knows case law like I have never seen.
She is the managing attorney for Gulf Coast legal in Bradenton Florida and has a wide range of knowledge of several areas of the law. She also helps with training intern Attorneys.
I came to Dawn with a highly sensitive and emotional legal issue. She helped me through it with grace,legal knowledge and experience. I would recommend her for any legal issue. If she can’t help you she would most likely be able to refer you to someone who could.

Mrs. Buchanan represented me in a divorce case and I was very happy with her. My husband was in prison and there were difficulties in getting it all resolved. Mrs. Buchanan was always professional and took time to explain things to me.
