Clear, pragmatic legal guidance

Anne represented me in a dispute with my former employer and provided clear, pragmatic legal advice throughout the process. She was thoughtful and straightforward in explaining the legal landscape, the trade-offs involved, and what was realistically achievable. I appreciated her ability to keep th...e focus on facts, risk, and outcomes, rather than emotion or escalation. Anne was responsive, transparent about fees, and consistent in helping me understand my options at each stage. While matters like this are never simple, her steady approach helped bring the situation to a practical resolution. I would recommend Anne to anyone looking for experienced, level-headed counsel in a workplace dispute.

Steady Support When I Needed It Most

I’m deeply grateful for Anne’s kind and steady support throughout a difficult transition. Her guidance was not only legally sound but emotionally grounding. Thanks to her, I was able to move forward with genuine peace of mind. What I received wasn’t just a financial settlement—it was the key that un...locked a sense of emotional release from the weight of the company’s unfairness. Anne’s professionalism, empathy, and unwavering dedication made all the difference. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone facing a challenging employment situation. She is not only a skilled attorney, but also a compassionate advocate who truly stands by her clients.

Disability discrimination

It feels good when someone gives you a chance to share a very personal and quite painful work experience and not feel pressured or dismissed because there may or may not be a $10 million dollar lawsuit pending. Sometimes your integrity is all that really matters. Thanks to Ann and her amazing and ex...tremely patient team, I am able to walk with my head held high in spite of my "disability" and because of that experience. Not just an attorney, more like supportive friends. Thanks guys!!! LN

The Law Offices of Anne Donnelly Bush

My experience with The Law Offices of Anne Donnelly Bush was nothing short of exceptional. They were professional, candid, and straight-forward in their assessments. I came to them at a time when I had major legal concerns and was particularly vulnerable. Their counsel led to a determination in my ca...se that would not have otherwise been arrived at, and substantially affected my trajectory moving forward. I am eternally grateful and would recommend this firm in strong confidence in their ability legally advise clients with challenging cases.

Great experience

I never take the time to leave a review but I really wanted to leave one here. I spoke with eight separate lawyers regarding my case and I am glad I got the chance to speak with ADBLAW. While other lawyers only gave me a price, without much explanation about the case, ADBLAW gave me a clear descript...ion of my choices. Instead of just trying to charge me a big fee, they thoroughly explained my options, including ones that might not require any use of their service. That honesty and transparency was what really made them stand out. I definitely recommend ADBLAW to anyone who needs to be represented for employment discrimination law!

Employment and labor lawyer | Jan 21

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Anne is a tireless advocate and a tremendous resource for any client she represents. I have worked on a matter in conjunction with Anne in which she and her team obtained a judgment after trial, a second judgment for attorneys' fees, and successfully appealed a decision to the 2nd Circuit paving the way for a third judgment for punitive damages. Anne's tenacity and knowledge of the law are assets from which her clients no doubt benefit."
