This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

A lawyer and a firm that cares about you first

I was hit by a car and was injured badly. After I returned from the hospital I was surprised to find multiple of letters from several law firms. I called everyone of them but Sheila was the only one that asked how I was doing health wise and offered to come visit me. That's why I choose her and her... firm which is a great family that care about their clients and their needs and are willing to take the time to explain every single question I had and even recommend things that I didn't know about. I also had to the pleasure to work jennifer who was the paralegal handling my case whom kept me updated on everything going on the case. Finally, I had the pleasure to meet Mr. Paige Donnelly whom is Sheila's father and a professor of law at the University of minnesota who also offered great advise.

Ms. Donnelly-Coyne and team were great with professionalism, kindness, and strategy during my personal injury case. I was treated respectfully and responsibly during the duration of our working relationship. I have the utmost respect for her and her team as compared to other companies I interviewed p...rior to choosing her firm. Thank you again Sheila for all you did for myself and my family. I am grateful you and I worked very well together and got the job done. Cuddos

Professional, Ethical, Reliable and Kind

Just about a year ago I retained Paige J. Donnelly LTD, to represent me as I was involved in a car accident. I had knowledge of this law firm from a dear friend, Ms. Deborah E. Lupelow Legal Assistant , who was very VERY Professional and helpful to me over the course of the past 11 months. Ms. Sheila... Donnelly-Coyne became the attorney to actually represent me and from the moment she and I first spoke, I knew my choice was well founded. Ms Lupelow and I spoke frequently and she relayed my concerns to Ms. Donnelly-Coyne, and I feel both Sheila and Deb were extremely focused and vigilant in arranging, planning, and in the end, executing a resolve to this matter that was most satisfactory and without a doubt, a much needed and greatly appreciated conclusion for the set of circumstances surrounding my case! Sheila and Deb, Thank you! From the bottom of my heart, Thank you for all your hard work and dedication, and for treating me and my situation with dignity and such great care. Sincerely, John
