Divorce Case

This thing called a lawyer Who I hired in Gainesville Florida was supposed to be my public defendant lawyer during my divorce case and custody battle case. She did absolutely nothing to help me, She was super unprofessional she lost my paperwork and went to the judge behind my back to tell him that I... was not doing my part when I always kept contact with her. She had a lot of attitude and never took interest in meeting me in person. Her only interests were only her own. If you see this woman’s name run and please do not waste your money hiring her and her independent private practice in Orlando.

I am sorry to see this review as it is completely fabricated. No judge or attorney is allowed to engage in ex parte communication concerning an active case. As an officer of the court, I am obligated to always tell the truth to any tribunal. If I actually represented you, I am sorry you had such an unpleasant experience.

A Strong And Compassionate Advocate!

For almost 2 years, Alishia has represented me in my complicated and tedious divorce case. In addition to being a knowledgeable and competent lawyer, she has been a compassionate and patient listener during this vey difficult season in my life. Alishia has gone above and beyond. She answers my emails... and text messages promptly and takes great care to keep me abreast of any new developments. My case is still on going but I have a strong advocate in Alishia and I am confident that she is continuing to work hard, as she has from the beginning, to bring forth a good outcome on my behalf. Thank you Alishia!

Great Divorce Attorney!

Divorce is not easy any way you slice it. Alishia made the process a little less painful with her quick responses to emails at all times of the day and night and with her precise explanations of unclear situations. My divorce was very quick and a little less stressful because of Ms. McDonald. I highl...y recommend her for any attorney needs!
