This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Trustworthy guidance throughout my divorce

My divorce case was quite complicated. Bonnie guided me through the process and I felt extremely confident having her on my side. She was realistic and honest, very well-versed with my rights, and was reasonable with what she charged. I was also very happy with the results I received in the end and w...ould absolutely recommend Bonnie for anyone going through a divorce.

Bonnie was the perfect lawyer when we bought our house

As first time home buyers we made a few mistakes. Once we hired Bonnie she was there to make sure all the i's were dotted and the t's were crossed. She stayed positive and kept us moving forward through the process when we got frustrated. She was very polite when the other lawyer was short with us. S...he stayed focused on the issues and got the job done in a professional manner. It was a pleasure to have her on our side

I trust Bonnie MacDonald and she did a great job for me.

Attorney MacDonald did a great job for me. My case was complicated and she listened to me. I felt confident that Attorney MacDonald knew all the facts of my case and the law. She certainly presented them well at court and I was very happy with the result. She was honest with me throughout the process... and I trust her.

Avvo Rating

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.
