About
I'm a local Board Certified Specialist in Federal and State Criminal Law. My goal is to be the defense lawyer who people can trust to be a straight shooter and to work hard on their case. Professionally, I chose to practice criminal defense from a very young age. I tagged-along to work with an uncle who was a prosecutor when I was a kid and decided then that the courthouse was where I wanted to spend my career. As a teen, I had a few run-ins with the law and although my offenses were somewhat petty, the enormous power that law enforcement and the government has over people facing criminal charges had a huge impact on me. It didn't take too much of that interaction for me to decide that balancing that power would be my lifelong professional goal. If you need help, give me a call. Assisting those accused of crimes or infractions is all that I do. Godspeed.

I just wanted to take moment to let everyone know what a great experience I had recently with the Donahue Law Firm. My granddaughter had been stopped for speeding on her way back home from Virginia. A search of her vehicle was conducted, and some drug paraphernalia and a small amount of marijuana was found. The Donahue Law Firm took on this challenge and, in the end, the charges were dismissed. But it gets better. I also asked them if they could work to get my granddaughter's record expunged of the charges since this had been her first offensive and her career in the medical field depended on that. Once again, the Donahue firm was successful. I highly recommend Mr. Donahue and his team. They take the time to understand your situation and they work hard on your behalf. Thank you.
The Donahue firm was an excellent choice and I would highly recommend Daniel Donahue to anyone who needs to hire a lawyer in the North Carolina area. He was very professional and kept us up to date on the case and was great about answering questions and guiding us during this process. His wife who is his secretary was as well wonderful to deal with and if you called the office she was knowledgeable and kind and took care of any concerns that you may have had. Definitely would recommend.
I am very pleased with the service I received from Donahue Law Firm. Mr. Donahue was able to get my traffic ticket downgraded to a much lesser charge. His office staff kept me updated appropriately throughout the whole process. I highly recommend Mr. Donahue if you have any legal needs.
Mr Donahue represented my son in traffic court. Always kind and prompt on responding to emails and phone call. I am so pleased with results! 5 star and beyond. You will be in great hands!
The people at Donahue law firm were very professional and courteous. Once I need my payment online, Dan Donahue contacted me promptly, once I explained my situation he was able to easily explain to me exactly how the process would work. Dan Donahue is a man of great integrity, he could have simply taken my payment and went to court and paid what was owed, instead he fought to have my fine reduced from 86mph in a 60mph, to 69mph in a 60mph zone. His actions saved me hundreds of dollars in fines. It is with great pleasure that I strongly recommend the Donahue law firm.
Congratulations to Donahue Law Firm, PLLC, on a job well done! Thank you so so much for all the work, effort, and time you put into bringing my son’s case to closure. Thank you so so very much for answering my calls and taking my son’s case on such a short notice. As our attorney, I witnessed many sides of Danny that showed me he is “top-notch and the best in the field”. Having an experienced attorney like you, granted us a sure “WIN”! In addition, this post wouldn’t be possible without the HEART of Michelle. Can I yell, AMAZING!” Danny, (this saying rings true for you both) behind every great man there’s an amazing WOMAN. You have ONE for sure that exemplify patience, warmth, and honesty. Michelle stood in replying to all my call, listening patiently, and supplying me with reassurance and comfort (as a parent). (To all readers) Yes, I can say with confidence, my son and myself were blessed and extremely fortunate to be represented by Donahue Law Firm, PLLC. We both thank you for caring enough, putting up with me, and other family members who called, reducing cost, and just listening. Danny and Michelle saw that my son was different and didn’t stereotype him. They both were fair and believed in him despite of the circumstances. In my absence, Danny remained professional, treated my son as an adult (even when I resulted to babying him), he searched for the truth until the truth was clear, and he conducted this case as though my son were his child (counseled/protected). After watching and seeing what went on during all these proceedings, I was completely appalled and taking back by the unfairness of our legal system (when it comes to our youth). My heart is happy knowing that Donahue Law Firm exists standing boldly for fairness, making a difference despite of limited funds (will offer a payment plan), and ensuring that the charge fits the crime. Again, thank you very much for the excellent service that you provided my son and family. We couldn't have asked for a better team (Danny & Michelle). I most definitely would recommend Donahue Law Firm to people I know or for anyone searching the web seeking legal help. Donahue Law Firm is Nothing but the TRUTH! Love, Evangula
My son and I knew after our phone consultation that we wanted to hire Mr. Donahue to support our case. Daniel was upfront when detailing the process and made us feel like we could take a breath, because he has the experience and knowledge to present your case! We did not expect the outcome we received and highly recommend using this firm to assist you with your legal issue. Thank you so very much for all you did for us.
Hired Daniel to represent me in something I felt should of never been charged with. After giving him all the evidence I had, and paying his fees quickly he was able to get everything dismissed quickly. I would highly recommend this Gentleman to anyone needing a Criminal Lawyer. He knows what he's doing.
Great Lawyer, every time he see’s my daughter he always asks how she is doing ? A Lawyer who really care . Thank You Mr. Donahue
