I've been going to Don for years, and he has been extremely helpful every time. He just handled a probate matter for my wife and I, even though I know he doesn't usually do that. Thanks again.
I found Attorney Woodbine both affable and at the same time very knowledgeable. Our subject matter involved the interaction between Medicare Recovery and Personal Injury Loss.
I have been working in Rhode Island as a civil trial attorney for the past thirty years. I spent my first nine years working as a defense attorney for insurance companies, and have worked solely for personal injury victims since then. You will find that my bilingual staff and I firmly believe that hard work and close, ongoing contact with clients are essential to achieving the best results for them. As a solo practitioner, my office represents civil claimants and plaintiffs exclusively. We have settled, arbitrated and tried hundreds of civil matters, with excellent results. I will fight hard to win your case, and I don't get paid unless you , to set up your free consultation.

Excellent
My case was referred through another attorney (who I won't name). Donald handled it so well from start to finish. Would recommend any day.

I was a client of Mr. Woodbine's and I would recommend him
I was in a bad accident about four years ago. I actually needed to undergo surgery as a result, and although it was a difficult process, Mr. Woodbine handled every aspect of it very well. I was also denied by the insurance company involved, and just before the whole thing went to trial, Mr. Woodbine got me an excellent settlement which I was very happy with.

Very pleased.
I was referred to attorney Woodbine. He did a great job representing me, and I won a decent amount of $ after it was all done. He was great to work with.

Recommendation
Attorney Woodbine handled my auto/ injury case. I was pleasantly surprised by the outcome of my case. Thanks to Attorney Woodbine, I was extremely satisfied with the amount which allowed me to pay my bills, as well as time to recuperate appropriately. He is a kind and empathetic man.

Really nice patient and understanding lawyer. I would recommend Don to anyone.
I was a passenger in an accident where I was injured, And the other guy's insurance company didn't want to give me all the money I was entitled to. Don proved that he was fighting for me against them when we sat in his office and I Listened to him talking to them on the phone. He ended up arguing with them After they kept trying to say that I was not entitled to 100%, but I was a passenger! It took time but Don settled my case for more money than I initially though he would. He was spectacular, and I will go right back to him if I ever need a lawyer again.
