Best attorney ever
I just wanted to share this. Donna was able to take over my case when my attorney passed away. I was losing my court case to gain custody of my three kids and as a man its very hard to win, well I won and it was cause of her hard work and dedication to my family and always answering texts, emails and following up on all requests. So when I say to all the fathers out there, hire her, she is great!

A VERY NICE AND CARING LADY
I have not yet hired Attorney Bucholz yet but she has offered me her help willingly and without excitation. I had a phone consultation with her twice about my case. Her staff is ALIVE, they actually answer the calls unlike many of other attorney's offices that you get to talk to a machine. The day that I was meant to drive to her office to hire her, I received a call back from another attorney that had learned about my case previously and this other attorney had a reputation to be one of the best, if not the best. That was a mistake on my part. I hired this other attorney and thousands of $ later in a matter of weeks: I am in the square one. I am looking forward to hiring Attorney Bucholz. As other review mentioned. She cares about my situation when I have not even hired her. She is a woman of faith. And for all of us believers, faith is what keep us moving.

Very grateful and relieved!
When I moved to Florida I needed to find someone who would help me to draw up legal documents. (Power of Attorney, Health Care Surrogate, Living Will, and Last Will and Testament) Donna Buchholz was referred from the Pastor of the Church I started going to. Donna and her staff were incredibly kind and caring and they went out of their way to accommodate me. I am so very grateful and relieved to have these documents in order. A big thank you to the Buchholz team!

Top Notch Attorney

I hired Ms. Buchholz because I needed someone with experience and knowledge in family law. I had a personal problem and really needed some serious help. Not only did Ms. Buchholz help me, I found her to be incredibly kind and caring. Always responded to my phone calls and text and never made me feel that I was not important. There was an extra added bonus to hiring Ms. Buchholz, she is a woman of God. That to me meant that she is not only honorable and truthful to the law but to God as well. Also, when I needed help in another legal matter that she does not handle she was able to provide me with other great attorneys that she knows. VERY THANKFUL!!! I highly recommend Ms. Buchholz!!!

Exceptional counsel

I needed advice with certain legal issues, and I contacted Ms. Buchholz. It is the best call I ever made. The counsel I was given was specific and to the point, helping me move forward with confidence and a degree of certainty that I did not have previously. Ms. Buchholz gives you the personal attention that makes you feel front and center with your case and/or issues, and I will not hesitate in contacting her again or recommending her to anyone who would ask.

Hard working and tough
We were hosed by the state in an adoption when they went back on their word and we were lost. We contacted Donna and were guided through what was happening and what our course of action was and it was not cheap. Knowing our circumstances? Donna dropped her rate and worked with us on a payment plan. She took on the state and was relentless in her pursuit of our interests. We finalized the adoption after about 6 months and Donna was there the entire time. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Donna for your legal needs.

Smart and honest, and got me my kids back! Highly recommend!
I would definitely recommend Ms Buchholz if you are looking for a lawyer. She represented me in my divorce and in getting custody of my kids. She really fought for me and is very smart and also gave me good advice throughout the whole process, and in the end I do have primary custody of my 2 kids. Ms Buchholz helped me to be prepared each step of the way, even though I was often caught up in my emotions, she was very informative so that I felt more confident and knew what to expect. She is hard working and very professional. I'm writing this review knowing that both of my kids are under the same roof as me, safe and sound, and Ms Buchholz is one of the main reasons that I can say that.

Unprofessional

I used her a good while back but had no forum to voice my opinions at that time. I went through an uncontested divorce that took a year because she wouldn't file motions or ask the judge ANYTHING during the process. I met her at court and was embarrassed at how she was dressed; poor representation of me.
Maybe she's learned a lot since then, but I found her to be unavailable to me more times than not, didn't want me to meet her at her office, offered me no support or guidance. When it was all over, I really wondered what she had done for me that I couldn't have done myself.

Knows Her Stuff
Ms Buchholz recently represented me in what to me was a very complicated matter, but to her office seemed a simple matter to clear up. Unlike many lawyers I have dealt with she and her staff spend all the time needed to inform me on the progress of my case. At the hearing she arrived early and discussed all the elements of my testimony, going over all the details of questions to expect. Her staff did an excellent job with research despite the time constraints and my failure to keep accurate records. I would recommend her to anyone who has a family law issue to resolve.

Consummate professional
I just finished a contested divorce with Donna as my attorney. To put it mildly, she cleaned house! I did not want a dirty, conniving lawyer, but a professional that knew the law, and would help me to present the facts of the case to the judge. Donna did not smear my ex, although her lawyer attempted to smear me. The whole process, although painful, was very well orchestrated. Her knowledge of the judge helped us to form out our case, and her overall character impressed me greatly. Opposing counsel was what I expected in a divorce attorney - a scoundrel. Donna dealt with him very quickly, not by being more of a scoundrel, but by using the facts of the case, and case law. My settlement was much better than I could have hoped for, Donna was nothing short of amazing!
