That’s the Way the Cookie Crumbles

The very last place you would expect to find E. coli is in your refrigerator cookie dough. It’s happened, and now even cookie dough is a dangerous product. When growing up, there was a whole lot of time spent in the kitchen gathered around the oven, waiting for those hot chocolate chip cookies to come [...]

go-to guy

Over the last few days I heard from a client who was very seriously injured in a motor vehicle crash almost 10 years ago. It was quite a battle, but we were victorious. The defendant was a big corporation, and was represented by a powerful law firm out of Manchester, N.H. She had a question [...]

A surprise visit from an injured friend

Today at the Donahue Law office we had a terrific surprise. We got a visit from a client who was injured in a horrific car crash a few years ago. She was broken up and down her body. The fact she survived was miraculous. To see her walk into the office without assistance was inspirational. [...]

The risks of laying it on the line

A good friend made a very perceptive comment about my blogs. He commented that they are “risky.” Best of all, he cares enough about me to tell me the truth. I think he’s right. You see, normally injury lawyers stay clear of controversial subjects because they do not want to make people mad at them. [...]

I’ve helped lots of folks over the years who’ve gone through this kind of heart-wrenching ordeal and horrible nightmare. Our thoughts and prayers go out those suffering– first & [...]

Educated fools

Some of the biggest imbeciles on earth have advanced degrees. Don’t get me wrong. I didn’t get to practice injury law without lots of formal education ( BA at Marquette University; Magna Cum Laude, Phi Beta Kappa, JD at Syracuse College of Law), and I’m a big proponent of education. It is a very good [...]

Those in-the-know call upon Donahue

Well, I’ve blogged about police officers and insurance claims adjusters who’ve hired me to help with their legal cases, and now I’ll spend a little time talking about others in- the -know who have chosen me, or referred others to me. These individuals, who must remain anonymous due to lawyer-client privilege, have first hand experience [...]

Another police officer hires Donahue

As the year 2009 comes to an end, I’m allowing myself some bragging rights. I’m sure many of you reading this blog are looking for an injury lawyer, so I would be foolish to miss the chance to do some self-promotion. The name of the injury law business is cases. Without clients an injury lawyer [...]

What’s this I hear about contingency fees?

This is a term injury lawyers take for granted. It’s not a term you hear everyday, except if you’re a personal injury attorney, so it needs to be explained. What on earth does it mean & how does it work? It means that the lawyer you hire agrees not to take any fee for his [...]
