Great Lawyer

There is nothing worse than getting a divorce and then having to worry about custody issues on top of it. Donna has been through my divorce and custody case, taken my calls - multiple times in a week, sometimes with me in tears, and handled everything so professionally. Not only has she been a tremen...dous attorney for us, we leave every appt knowing she genuinely cares about us - most importantly, she cares about the well being of my children, and I couldn't ask for more than that!

Horrible lawyer

She never answeres he phone calls. And when you do talk to her she rushes you off the phone. She wants me to be ok with sending my son with her mom when she just got kicked out of 2 rehabs. If I would have read the below posts I would have never hired her. I paid her $3000 and all she did was come up... with excuses as to why we cants go to court. Been waiting to go to court for 4 months now. If anyone knows a good lawyer let me know because it’s not her.

Note that the date of this review is Christmas Eve...Some people crave attention ONLY when it is least convenient for everyone else. When a client goes out of his or her way to sabotage his or her own case, decides ON A HOLIDAY not to honor an agreement so HE can create drama, then pitch a fit when the attorney is compelled to withdraw, it is beyond pathetic and sad.

Quality isn't cheap; cheap isn't quality.

If you know nothing about the law, do NOT hire her; if you do know something about law, do NOT hire her! You will be greeted at her house door, not office with "Shut up Daisy, Shut Up!" . Daisy is her dog. There is no office outside her home office; and no other employees, i.e. attorneys or staff ...to assist despite her advertisement referring to "we". If you do hire her, document everything! My phone calls were not returned in a timely manner, my legal documents were not prepared in a timely manner.

As I always tell my clients, people don't like to lose. Those who do lose against me will stoop to ANY level to try to hurt me, but my reputation via my satisfied clients (who refer their friends and family to me) prevents such garbage from sticking... You should be ashamed of yourself for even trying this tactic... How desperate are you??

Exceptional

Donna Leonard far exceeded my expectations. She is professional and at the same time compassionate and understands the situation which needs to be handled carefully and critically. The prime definition of family lawyer because she is family.
