Amazing Family Attorney!

Contacting Attorney Savona was the best decision I've ever made for custody of my child. Attorney Savona was very professional, answered any and all questions I ever had. She helped ease away any fears I had about losing my child. Most of all she listened! She listened and made me feel like I wasn't ...alone in the fight. She was extremely supportive through the whole thing. Wish Attorney Savona was my attorney when I was having a custody fight over my daughter many years ago. Because the outcome of that custody would have turned out much better than it did. I highly recommend Attorney Savona if you need a great family attorney

Made a stressful situation manageable

I have used Attorney Savona for two separate completely different types of legal matters. Both times, she took the reigns and made me feel at ease. She made very stressful personal matters easy to manage and I was always confident in how she managed all situations. She responded to all my questions a...nd concerns promptly, and she gave me a price up front, which I was comfortable with, and was fair. I have and will continue to recommend her.

My lawyer is better than your lawyer

Attorney Savona-Donka is amazing! Divorce, wills, custody advice, probate advice; she has helped me with it all. She is always professional with a sincere warmth and kindness that makes difficult situations easier. I always get a quick response to questions that I have and she makes sure I fully unde...rstand everything. I have referred family and friends to her and they feel the same way I do. I highly recommend her.

Defended me when i couldn’t.

Lindsay was an absolute godsend. My friend recommended her and I am grateful he did. She met me right away, didn’t waste time with unnecessary motions, and knew exactly how to handle this difficult and toxic divorce. Her knowledge and professionalism shined through from beginning until the end. I... will always recommend her.

Professional, Astute, and Mindful

Attorney Savona helped me during my divorce and after for a child custody battle. Lindsay doesn't put up with any shenanigans from the other side, is very knowledgeable, and on top of the situation. Highly recommended and I'd hire her again if I needed another lawyer.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
