Did not finish the work we paid her to do, and will not respond to calls or emails

We hired Ms. Biderman for a pretty simple estate plan. She has not delivered all of the work that we paid her to do, and has not answered our emails for months. I hired her based on the strengths of these and other reviews, and I'm sure she's a wonderful attorney, but it strikes me that she may just ...be too busy to satisfy all of her clients at this time.

A Great Experience

I was very impressed with every aspect of my experience with Ms. Biderman, from start to finish. When I called her on the phone, she immediately remembered documents she had prepared for my mother who was a client of hers over 15 years ago. I was visiting Virginia from the west coast and had a very... small window of time available to take care of an urgent estate planning issue. Ms. Biderman came to the assisted living facility to meet with my mother and myself and quickly determined the best course of action for our particular situation. I loved the fact that she promptly responded each time I had a question. Her personal attention made the experience as pleasant as estate planning can be. Despite some unforeseen obstacles she was able to take care of business in an expeditious manner. I would highly recommend Ms. Biderman to anyone looking for a capable, attentive professional.

Amazing attorney

I can honestly say that Donna Biderman helped save my life. After graduating college I was deeply affected by my addiction to drugs. This led me to being charged with 5 misdemeanors in one jurisdiction and 2 felonies in another jurisdiction. After poor performance from my initial attorney, I decided ...to hire Mrs. Biderman and this turned out to be the best decision of my life. Donna was there every step of the way and her work far exceeded my expectations. She is available at any time and always makes herself accessable to her clients. Whenever I would be anxious about my situation, I would text or call her and she always reassured me that everything was going to be okay. Wow was she correct. She never stopped fighting for me and I am forever grateful for her. If you are looking for an attorney who isn't just representing you for the money but because she actually cares about you, Donna Biderman is your attorney. She got 4/5 of my misdemeanors dropped and reduced. Donna also was able to work hard in my corner for 8 months and perserveared through a tough legal situation regarding my 2 felonies. Mrs. Biderman was able to get 1 felony completely dropped and the other felony reduced to a small misdemeanor. I had lost all hope and thought my life was over, until I met Donna Biderman. I can not stress to anyone who is looking for an attorney to consider Mrs. Biderman. She is truly an angel on earth and I am not sure where I would be today without her. She will stand by your side during the toughest of times and she WILL perserveare. Thank you Donna Biderman, for everything, you are truly an amazing attorney and even a better human being.
