Excellent Family Law Attorney~Definately recommend
I have retained Ms. Donahue on 2 seperate occassions regarding a family law matter. Ms. Donahue is well versed in the law, kept me well informed and did an overall excellent job. Thank you Ms. Donahue for your hard work and caring in this matter. I highly recommend this attorney -

Traffic Court Triumph
It was of great relief to have Miss Donahue with me in court rather than try to handle my speeding ticket on my own. Not only did she successfully negotiate a lesser offense with a seemingly firm minded prosecutor, but she made the entire experience cost effective.
