She never gives up and you are important to her

I've been with Donna now for over two years and her staff has been great. The case is still in process and we need to get more aggressive. Since hiring her, I've felt comfortable and confident in her abilities. While she may not know EVERYTHING (no person in the world does), she works hard to find... the answers. Sometimes people may drop the ball in a situation because of a family emergency, but that doesn't stop her team from communicating and doing their very best. The compassion her team displays makes you feel that you are important no matter what your financial or emotional situation is. She works for you and not opposing.

Did a great job on my case.

Ms. Bucholz was not the most expensive attorney I consulted with, but she did do the best job of explaining what I could expect (I paid for a few consultations because I was facing a nasty divorce with a child and many assets at stake). Once I hired her, she clearly cared about winning me a favor...able settlement. Although the divorce took longer than I expected, the settlement was also better than what I expected, so it was worth the wait. If my ex tries to take me to court again over custody, I will be rehiring Ms. Bucholz.

DJ Buchholz

DJ Buchholz and her staff were a great team to work with through such a stressful time in my life. I felt Ms. Buchholz really listened to me and more importantly really cared. She worked to get the best outcome for my daughter and I. Even the minutes before the final hearing Ms Buchholz kept me calm... with her calming presence. I was able to walk out of the courtroom with respect and dignity thanks to DJ Buchholz.

Excellent lawyer

Ms. Buchholz did an amazing job for me. I went to a big law firm before hiring Ms. Buchholz, and all they did was bill me ridiculous amounts of money to do very little on my case and drag things on. I got frustrated and decided to hire Ms. Buchholz instead, and I'm SOOO glad I did! Her rates were mu...ch more reasonable and she got things moving on my case right away! She really listened to me, always had time for me, and was really good at keeping me informed about what was going on throughout the whole stressful divorce process. She fought hard for me in court leading to a favorable outcome for me and my kids. I would recommend Ms. Buchholz to anyone, she is a great attorney!
