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.

Grateful

Highly recommend! I received very helpful, swift and astute advice from Anne Donnelly Bush. I am grateful for the care and concern shown to me as I tried to get my head around the baffling legal terms of a separation agreement. They were brilliant.

Great advice and support throughout the process

I had a great experience working with Anne. She was very responsive when I was looking for advice. She understood my situation quickly by asking relevant questions and giving me straight forward, clear answers. It felt that Anne was really trying to do the right thing for me as a client. She was hone...st and outlined the pros and cons of pursuing legal action. I had a really great experience and would highly recommend Anne for assistance with employment law.

Great Attorney!!!!

Ms. Anne Donnelly Bush is a excellent attorney!! She took on a employee discrimination case for my fiancé. This case went on for five years and she kept me inform every step of the way. Anytime I called she was always available no matter what time or day of the week it was. Not only was Ms. Bush a...lways available she kept her mind on ease all the time. She not only showed passion for her work but cared about my fiancé's feelings. Ms. Bush not only turned out to be a great attorney but also a great friend!!

Anne Donnelly Was Amazing

Anne picked up my case very last minute. I already had a lawyer but I did not feel trustworthy of this person. As soon as Anne stepped in I really felt like I was being faught for. She is very trustworthy very organized. I always received phone calls and updates on my case. Her and her husband trea...ted me as I were family. Reassuring that they would not let me down. The way my case was set up and what was going on I could not hire Anne. But she was able to make phone calls and push my lawyer to get things going were they needed to be . I wish I would have known of her at first because I know I would have had better out comes. But I know her now and if I need a lawyer, She will be the first person I'll call.

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."
