If you are looking for hardworking, persistent and honest, David Donet is the right guy.

I worked with Mr. Donet at the State Attorney's Office and then on the other side of the table once he went into private practice. He is relentless in his defense of his clients. He is an honest and excellent advocate and one of the few defense attorneys I feel comfortable recommending to friends i...n need.

Associate of the best lawfirm in Florida

It all started in May of 2007, my life came to a screeching hault. I was charged with Manufacturing Marijuna. Without my knowledge the house that I was watching for some friends was indeed a grow house. After my arrest and subsequent bond, the lawfirm of Donet McMillan and Trontz was reffered to me. ...What else can I say but Mr. Mcmillan, Mr. Donet and Mr. Trontz worked deligently to restore my good name. They are now good friends and I recommend them highly, they are true professionals.

"I worked with David Donet at the State Attorney's Office. He works very hard for his clients. He is an unrelenting advocate. He is aggressive, yet is always a gentleman. Having been a prosecutor, he knows both sides of the case. He knows where to find weaknesses in the State's case. He is a pleasure to work with both as a collegue and now as an adversary. His firm is one of the few firms I feel comfortable referring friends and family that need a criminal lawyer."

"I endorse this lawyer. David did a great job on a case that I referred to him involving a domestic violence restraining order that had been placed on a client. He did a good job convincing the judge to see the situation from the client's perspective and the judge removed the restraining order. David is a great advocate in the courtroom."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
