Mr. Donnan immediately answered my call after spending hours spinning circles with other attorneys, government departments, and websites. My questions were answered and explained very well. I will definitely recommend Mr. Donnan to those in need of his services and should I ever need more than a co...

David had given me some hope with additional information that I had yet to hear of. It's people like him that keep the fighting spirit going. Things would have been different if I found you sooner without any doubt.

First, let me start by saying that I was not referred to Mr. Donnan but instead found him online as a random attorney who handles criminal cases and appeals. I have not had positive experiences regarding legal issues in the past, so my expectations were low at best, and my distrust of anyone being ab...

David was very persuasive in his filings in the matter he worked on my behalf and achieved excellent results. He also was patient and persistent in a good way to bring all of the pieces together. Hi support staff is also excellent.

My Lawyer Mr Donnan took his time to explain the journey ahead. And though it was a journey he was there to lead the way and guide me through the whole entire process. I appreciate his work and that of his staff as well. All I can say is thank you for a successful outcome.
"I endorse this lawyer. I have admired David Donnan's career for two decades. He is incredibly detail-oriented and astute. He cares deeply about representing those in need, and preparing the best case possible. He is without a doubt one of the best attorneys in Seattle. I would hire him if I ever needed legal help."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have knows David Donnan since 1978 when we were in college together, and I have had the pleasure of working with him in the same law firm for more than a year. I know him to be an extremely hard-working, analytical and experienced attorney with excellent research and writing skills. He is as comfortable in the courtroom as he is at his computer drafting appeals, and has grown into a very skilled negotiator and litigator for clients in Municipal, District and Superior Courts around western Washington. If you need an experienced and dedicated advocate, David Donnan should be on your list."
"I endorse this lawyer. David is a seasoned appellate lawyer with extensive experience. He has an acute intellectual awareness of the Constitutional implications of a client’s case that most attorneys do not have. His approach to difficult legal issues is simple—he is a zealous advocate who is inquisitive and highly intelligent. I think he would be a very good judge one day and I highly recommend him."
