GOAT

I HIGHLY recommend Doug Dolan ! He is responsive, personable, attentive, helpful, knowledgeable, and all around the greatest of all time. He walks you through every step, keeps you informed and has the ability to ease your worries in the most stressful of times. He is truly caring about you, your fam...ily, and even financially tight situations. He tries to keep things as amicable as possible and even helps out after all things are said and done - it’s not just a smile,a handshake and good luck. He is the man and best of all, he gets the job done !

Douglas Dolan Review

I really appreciated Mr. Dolan and his urgency to get things accomplished for me in a timely manner. He got me the best possible outcome as promised, even better than what we expected. Not to mention, he answered all of my calls even when he was at court. He made sure to check on me frequently and gi...ve me updates. I couldn’t have picked a better lawyer. I would hire him again if I need to (hopefully I won’t need to) but I highly recommend him. He knows a lot about law, considering he was a prosecutor himself. He doesn’t try to sugarcoat anything and he made that very clear during the consultation. Not only did he help me, but he helped my boyfriend get the best possible outcome as well, and he didn’t have to do that. I have a tough work schedule which makes if difficult for me to meet with him during regular business hours, but he still met with me outside hours. I was very lucky to have found him.

Criminal Case

I highly recommend Mr. Dolan for any criminal proceedings you maybe facing. He represented me in my second degree assault charge. He was very attentive and quick in responding to my needs. He was always available whenever I needed him. Thanks Doug
