Competent and helpful

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation for the exceptional service provided by Mr. MacDonald. He was extremely helpful and provided invaluable insights regarding my immigration situation, which had been causing me significant stress and anxiety. When I initially contacted Mr.... MacDonald, I was scared and overwhelmed, unsure of what options I had available to me. However, after speaking with him, I realized that there were several viable options that I had not previously considered. His expertise and guidance gave me a sense of reassurance and hope that I had not felt before. Mr. MacDonald's professionalism and personal touch made a significant impact on me. He was patient, understanding, and compassionate, and took the time to explain each step of the process in a clear and concise manner. Overall, I am incredibly satisfied with the service I received from Mr. MacDonald. His guidance and support allowed me to overcome a difficult situation, and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of immigration and other legal assistance. Thank you once again for providing such excellent service.

Highly professional, to the point, and very knowledgeable.

Mr MacDonald has been amazing over the years. He has helped me to get my small business running and has been very patient and accommodating with numerous questions. He is friendly, smart, responsive, competent and have my best interest at heart. He is a five star lawyer, for sure.

"CALM BEFORE THE STORM"

ATTORNEY MACDONALD IS THE ATTORNEY I CALL A CALM BEFORE THE STORM. HE IS BETTER THAN PERRY MASON AND HE WAS A TV CHARACTER. MACDONALD IS AN ATTORNEY THAT WILL RIGHT THE WRONG. HE TAKES HIS TIME BEFORE HE SPEAKS BUT WHEN HE DOES NO ONE CAN RESIST HIS QUESTIONS. IF YOU WANT AN LAWYER THAT IS A CAL...M BEFORE THE STORM AND WILL GET RESULTS, THEN GET HIM. HE HAS KNOWLEDGE, WISDOM, AND UNDERSTANDING TO HANDLE YOUR CASE. HE IS NOT AN ORDINARY ATTORNEY IN MY OPINION BUT ONE THAT IS USED BY THE LORD MIGHTILY. I PRAY YOU WILL NEVER NEED AN ATTORNEY, BUT IF YOU DO, GET THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM. HE IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE IN WHAT HE IS DOING AND VERY TRUSTWORTHY. HE HELPED MY BROTHER RIGHT A WRONG THAT HE WAS ACCUSED OF COMMITTING. I AM PROUD OF THIS "CALM BEFORE THE STORM ATTORNEY".

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.
