Tenacious

In the begining, I was not very impressed with your law firm. The paralegal I was assigned to was not very professional or motivated. I must add that this adventure begins during our government takeover of the country with COVID. When Madison finally contacted me before the hearing I felt way more at... ease. She gave me so much confidence. She is very sharp and to the point. Having the ability to boost your clients morale before a hearing is a huge task. Madison shines in her professionalism, knowledge and tenacity. Having her in my corner was a blessing.

Disability determination

Miss Madison Donaldson was my disability attorney and she was very polite professional and knowledgeable attorney she was a able to get all my records and facts about my injuries and get my disability awarded it took some time but I would highly recommend her and the firm she represents thank you to ...everyone that worked on my case truly appreciated.

It’s not clear what you mean by “title.”

Madison was a pleasure to work with. She kept me informed as needed and was more than willing to hear my concerns and put up with my questions. She was honest with me when discussing potential legal pathways and outcomes. I would not hesitate to seek her legal counsel should the need arise in the fut...ure.

I recommend without reservation!

I was in a desperate situation when I found Madison Donaldson. I had two Long term disability claims which the my former employer and the disability companies refused to pay in full. To make matters worse, I was living in Tennessee which has some of the most poor laws for workers. I approached over... 20 lawyers locally by word of mouth, web searches and lawyer referral sites to no avail. Fortunately I thought to search nationwide and found Ms. Donaldson. She helped me get a bit more than 6 figures which I otherwise would not have had and truly needed for family, including 2 young children. I am eternally grateful to Ms. Donaldson for her help and I enthusiastically recommend there of anyone in need.

  • 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.
