Donna Carol Santo

SANTO MEHAS A Professional Law Corporation Donna Santo Mehas is a very professional lawyer, along with a very professional staff. I was searching for a lawyer familiar with military law, and Donna was the top of the search!! I needed a divorce attorney, and she has amazing military knowledge. S...he kept me up to date on everything and if I did not understand something she was very patient and explained in detail, until I completely understood the situation. When it came down to spousal support, a lump sum was not satisfactory, and Donna "fought" for me until I was awarded a lump sum and full monthly spousal support (we did not have children) and now I am able to live comfortably without worrying if I am going to make ends meet. If you need a professional lawyer, whether or not you need military law, consider Donna Santo Mehas, you will definitely NOT be disappointed!!

This woman is very good at presenting herself as a caring professional until you engage with her on the case. Once she has you secured she essentially ignores the case, doesn't do her homework, has spotty knowledge of the case, doesn't know details, seems like she is just winging it in court. Very po...or communication, I was unable to get a hold of her throughout the proceedings, she avoided talking with me. Costly loss on my end. She seems like she is just burned out. AVOID.

Donna and her staff are professional with decades of experience. They understand the law and how family law cases are heard in the courts. I had an extremely complex custody case with dozens of health professionals, collateral contacts, and opinions floating around. There were so many accusations,... crisis, and charges; and every one of them felt extremely important to me. My concerns were serious, and the innumerable quantity along with counter accusations overwhelmed the courts. Donna's office was able to sift through and make sense of things to help get things on track. Donna's office took the time to understand my concerns, had concern for my children, and was able to relate this to the courts in a logical digestible manner for the best possible outcome. It took time. I needed to trust. She knows her stuff, and is strong at the right times.
