I hired attorney Brown for a criminal defense case late last year. Attorney Brown was amazingly professional and thorough in her execution of this case. She provided outstanding feedback throughout the legal process as well as insight into the court systems. The outcome of her work was beyond my expectations. Highly recommend attorney Brown!

I required an out of state lawyer and law firm in NH to aid me in my legal issue earlier this year in 2017.I chose Donna Brown and Wadleigh, Starr & Peters, PLLC because of their high ratings and reviews. Donna maintained continuous contact with me providing updates via phone/text and emails which was a complete joy to me and my family especially due to the nature of our issue and being an out of state client. Donna answered all my questions offered key advice and really showed that she cared absolutely about me. Donna completed my case in an exemplary manner and we had better than outstanding results. Myself and my family are extremely happy with the accuracy and humility and privacy that Donna and her firm afforded us. I would refer Donna Brown and Wadleigh ,Starr & Peters, PLLC to anyone whom requires 1st Rate lawyer services with personal and effective professional results. It’s a wonderful thing when someone tells you exactly what they can do to assist you and they come through on every count. Thank you always and forever Donna you were an absolute joy to work with.

Donna is truly passionate about her work and it is evident how much she cares about the law and the proper interpretation of it. Donna gave us a great starting point for our case along with options. I left her office with a sense of hope for the first time in a long time.

I've refused to allow another lawyer represent me, ever since I met her in 2011. She has earned my complete and utmost trust, which is not any easy thing to do. I listen to, and respect, her words because they always contain value and reason. Donna won't pull any punches, nor will she try to pull the wool over your eyes, BUT she WILL pull out all the stops. Donna has not only the been the best lawyer to represent me, but she is also one of the finest, most intelligent and well rounded individuals that I have ever met. I would go to war with or for Donna at the drop of a hat, in an instant, no questions asked. Why? Because she's gone to war for me.
