Deals with Opinions and Not Facts

Donna is extremely unprofessional and downright rude. I am a professional in the field and had to work with her on a case. She was easily swayed by opinions and struggled to focus on the actual facts of the case. Her style of communication is yelling and talking over you, and she often has little ev...idence to back up the very skewed claims that she makes. I don’t know how she gets any work at all.

combative Attorney

This attorney was assigned to me and she refuses to give me my 300.00 back she said she sent it to 19131. thanks she never helped me and it was through legal aid or senior law center and she always treated me rude abrupt and nasty on the phone. beware of this person. I told her if she doesn't make su...re I get my money I will sue her in court for my money she owes me and her last words were good luck with that and hung up the phone. Wow

Should be disbarred

I hired Donna to get a PFA for my young child. She.misrepresented my case by saying that she would be able to get me the PFA so I signed the contract and sent the payment. However on day of the hearing, she was unprepared and she couldn’t argue the defense lawyer. Afterward her attitude suddenly chan...ged, and said that I pursue a PFA for selfish reasons and some other untruthful things she copied from the defendant’s lawyer. She charges hourly and I was charged for phone calls I made to discuss about payment. With the case dragged unnecessarily by her, the bill skyrockets so fast and there will be more bill.

Exactly who you want

After starting off with another lawyer for my custody case, my wife and I went with Donna because we were not happy with our previous lawyer. It was the best decision we could have made. Donna got us organized and ready for the court battle. She was there for us every step of the way. She put togethe...r an awesome case and presented it perfectly. Now we have primary custody of my son and we can't thank Donna enough!!!!!!!

Donna is perfection!!

Donna is by far the most fantastic lawyer you can ever ask for. I moved from PA to CO to set up a new life for my family. Husband stayed behind to wrap up the kids school year. 12 weeks went by and I was so excited to go back and get my family. Instead I was served with emergency custody papers. ...I was 1500 miles away from them and had no idea where to turn for help. Donna thankfully was there to guide me thru the legal battle that went on for a year. And still continues with the divorce and finalizing all other legal matters with the kids. She has always been prompt in response. Even with the numerous miles that separate us. She has also opened up her time to me when I’ve had to fly in for court to prepare me for what’s to come. She has never made me feel rushed or that she has other things to do. I always feel like I’m her only client and my issues really matter. She is very passionate about her job and knows all the legal rulings and matters that I was not even prepared for or knew I had rights too. She will lay all your options out to you and she asks what is best for you. She will not say this is what we are going to do and that’s final. She makes you feel like you actually have a choice and many choices and avenues to explore to get what you need. Or at least fight for them. Things are calming on my legal matters but I will always retain her for anything that the future holds.
