Divorce

James Donovan is one of the best divorce lawyers I have ever known. He helped me out on a quick settlement in no time. He's expertise is remarkable and very much affordable on my part since I'm a single mother.

Crème De la crème

Well it was a gamble when we first hired James and his staff for our child custody battle, but I must say I have never saw or heard a lawyer to do what James and his staff has done! They are the best at what they do, his demeanor and strategy is above all the rest! Thanks James you are the best! We w...on!

Amazing Law Firm

My husband and I had an immigration case that needed to be taken care of. From the moment we came in everyone was courteous and helpful. They kept us informed every time we had paperwork sent to us by USCIS. They were with us every step of the way and along side when we had our interview. The same da...y of our interview we were approved and got my green card within 5 business days. I would highly recommend James Donovan ESQ. Thank you James, Raniah, Samantha and Sauri. We will be forever grateful for being there with us.
