Efficient, Honest, and Reliable

I contacted Paul Donaghue on a referral from family after an insurance company refused to pay a claim they had previously approved over 11 months prior. He immediately got on the case and within a week we had heard from the company, police, and investigators all hoping to resolve the situation. After... three weeks the situation was completely resolved without having to pursue a legal battle. I got everything I had requested from the insurance claim and he was helpful in every way imaginable. I could not recommend Mr. Donaghue enough, and I plan to refer him to any friends or family in need of a lawyer in the future.

Car Accident Case

I was in a bad car accident a few years ago and hired an attorney who didn't do much with the case. I decided to seek another lawyer and someone had recommended Attorney Donaghue. When I explained the circumstances of the accident, he immediately knew that we had a case and he explained how the cas...e would be handled, which insurance company he would contact, and what policy I was covered under. Throughout the case, he was quick to return my phone calls, kept me updated on the case, and kept on top of the insurance company. When the insurance company offered a settlement, Attorney Donaghue was honest about what sort of an offer would have been acceptable. He explained every step of the way and answered all my questions. The accident was difficult for me and Attorney Donaghue was very understanding of that. He really pushed the case forward and the case has now reached a resolution that I am very happy with. I highly recommend him.
