Tremendously effective advocate
Ms. Gibbs has been of enormous help to me and my son. Starting from the original divorce, and continuing through several issues as my son has grown, there have been many disputes between the parents that could not be resolved without litigation. Ms. Gibbs made valiant efforts in all cases to first r...

Donna Gibbs is a rock solid attorney. She handled my case with care and efficiency. She effectively advocated for the kids' visitation schedule that I wanted and the divorce was complete in six months. She gave me top quality advice on how to communicate with my ex and how to protect against potentia...

Fantastic Divorce Attorney
Ms. Gibbs was my attorney for a long and difficult divorce. I don't think you could do any better than to have her by your side for what is often a very difficult process.

Take caution when approaching this lawyer
Donna Gibbs was recommended by a friend because I'm in the process of a separation from the father of my two small children. Her assistant Maureen told me I needed to give her personal information that she would then relay to Donna, and then she would get back to me on whether Donna would take my mat...
I am sorry for your negative experience with my legal staff. The normal intake process in our office does ask for details about the specific situation, which in a divorce, custody or support case usually involves personal and sensitive information. We gather this information in order to evaluate the complexity of the case, whether the case requires immediate action, and to determine whether or not I can take the matter based on my current case load. I try hard to be responsive to my clients and the best way to do that is to have a case load that allows for this. Thank you for bringing this issue to my attention and I hope you were able to find an attorney that can assist you. Sincerely, Donna Gibbs
"I endorse this lawyer. I met Donna way back in 2005 or so when we were opposite each other on a case. She's smart, tough, very experienced, caring and hard-working. When friends ask "who's a good family law attorney in the East Bay," Donna's always on my short list."
