Spectacular lawyer! One of the greatest in Southern California. Mr. Donath is marvelous with his craft and trade.

Graham and his staff were excellent. Trust the process. I had some very dark times after being wrongly accused of some very heinous crimes. Graham is playing chess and gets what we deserve and more. He talked to me for hours on a sunday night after being arrested and after meeting in person I hired him immediately. Trust the process thats all i really can say. Do not hesitate to hire him. He is patient and thorough. I cannot over state how glad i am that we hired him. A+++++

I'm absolutely thrilled with the incredible job Graham Donath did on my case. He held on to the case for years during the pandemic, always showing up for me and representing me at every hearing until he was able to get the charges dismissed! His patience, incredible strategy and foresight in my case was amazing. He's by far the BEST attorney I've ever had, and he's also a very great guy. I'm so happy with the results, it's difficult to put into words. I've made a few mistakes in life, but hiring Graham was NOT one of them. You cannot go wrong hiring Mr. Donath to represent you.

My Experience working with Mr. Donath was nothing short of exceptional. Even with an extensive criminal history, Mr. Donath was able to have the court agree to giving me some time to complete treatment and show the court who I've become. I was faced with 6 years in prison and was able to continue on a positive path serving my time on probation. I'm very grateful for everything Graham and his office did for me. They were supportive, congratulatory, and fought for my success the entire year it took us to get through my case. Thank you again. Highly recommended!!!!!

This Law firm is by far the most helpful, considerate, respectful, knowledgeable, and communicative group I have ever worked with. I had a horrible experience with another law firm that did not represent me and used scare tactics to get more money out of me and continue getting me unfavorable outcomes. I finally reached out to this group for help and they were very understanding. They quoted me a very reasonable price for representation and we’re able to fix the mess my previous lawyer made and in fact improved my situation by getting me much better terms only after one hearing. They have given me hope for a better future and I would recommend them to anyone who is dealing with a similar situation as mine. I can’t thank them enough for what they have done for me, they were a blessing in my life.

Never thought I would have the need to use these services. And made a few calls before calling here. The other calls I made were disappointing, I could practically hear the cash register ringing as I spoke with them. When you are in this situation you already feel “processed” and you want to feel that your attorney sees you as a person, not an invoice. I did a little more research online and really like Graham Donath’s credentials, so called his office. From my very first call to Carrie in the office, I felt reassured and well taken care of. She is empathetic, professional, and super responsive and excellent with follow through. When Mr. Donath called me for my initial consult, (outside of office hours, which I really appreciated) I felt exactly the same way. He immedialy impressed me as very skillful and knowledgable. When we went to the hearing, he was able to resolve my case quickly, the outcome was the best possible one. Having called around before deciding on him, I also found his rate to be reasonable. For the level of professionalism, service, and knowledge, as well as a successful outcome, this was money well spent and peace of mind restored.

I feel so fortunate that i found Graham Donath. He took on my son's case. My son is not a criminal but he got caught up in the criminal system due to several probation violations and pretty serious domestic charges. He was very clear and told me what we were up against and what was possible. He gave me a package price that I could understand and could commit to. He achieved every thing that he said was possible. I think that I got more than I paid for. I highly recommend this lawyer to represent anybody you care about. He takes your case and treats it with the upmost respect and importance.

Graham is a great lawyer I was recommended from a friend he really helped who was fighting 25 plus years but he beat his case, in my eyes he's the best! He was always very responsive and made sure to get all the details he needed to beat my case. The DA was trying to at first give me time, then wanted to put me on probation for 3 years but I couldn't accept that or even afford anything on my record because it would ruin my career. So with great communication and persistence Graham got my case dismissed with a small fine and community service. He truly is the best I give him 5 stars and I recommend you choose him you won't be disappointed. He is very honest and will tell you the truth, that’s what I love about him he promised he would help but went above my expectations, because of his hard work I can now follow through with my career.

Mr. Donath was referred to me by a prominent lawyer in San Diego, as one of the best in the Riverside area and he did not disappoint. From the first meeting until even today Mr. Donath has been honest, attentive to our questions and works for the best possible outcome. We are thankful he was able to bring the charges down from 2 felonies to 1 misdemeanor. Not only is Mr. Donath great but his office staff talked me off of many ledges. Deanna is very compassionate, empathic she takes the time to listen to your questions, fears and leaves you feeling like a positive can come from any situation, I am truly grateful for her, Mr. Donath and the outcome of the case.

Incredible in every way! Graham and his team are outstanding—I cannot say enough good things about them. Graham came to the courthouse near me that was quite a drive for him on multiple occasions, he accepted me as a client and answered my countless questions and concerns—helping me navigate through what was the absolute worst season of my life. Graham listened to my values and defended my rights. He and Carrie and Deanna are patient and kind, generous with their time and attention, thorough and willing to go the distance in every way. There is no other attorney I can possibly think of that can do what Graham does and do it so well. He was able to work a deal with the DA office in my area, despite not being his most frequented courthouse, he got me a deal that was astonishingly better than anyone else could have gotten me. I ended up with the shortest term of anger management courses to go through and countless people that had similar cases to mine had incredibly worse outcomes. People were so surprised when they heard my deal and assumed my attorney must be outrageously priced but honestly Mr. Donath is very, very fair in his pricing, even generous. I’m a person who prays and I certainly prayed through my hard season of court situations that God would bless Graham and give him wisdom and favor, particularly for my case, and I believe God certainly did! Say a little prayer for yourself and hire Graham Donath—you won’t regret it!

First and foremost, I want to thank Graham for walking me through, quite possibly one of the most uncertain times in life. I will not go into the details of my case, but the repercussions were severe, and it could have potentially destroyed my future. Against the odds, Graham successfully managed to pull me out of the depths of a legal nightmare, and he went above and beyond to ensure an excellent outcome. Graham’s expertise, professionalism, honesty, and representation are incomparable to other attorneys I have had. Graham handled my case professionally while he and his two excellent legal assistants, Carrie and Deanna, kept me updated on the progress consistently. Furthermore, Graham is greatly respected in the courtrooms and, more importantly, respected by every judge. So, If you find yourself in a legal situation where you need to depend on an attorney, I strongly encourage you to reach out to Graham. He’s a phenomenal attorney that believes in his clients and, more importantly, aggressively fights for them. Thanks again, Graham!

Sometimes, you find yourself at the wrong place at the wrong time, and trying to find a lawyer who understands you and your troubles, can be a stressful process. Stumbling upon Mr. Donath & his team online was a godsend! My unfortunate circumstance with the law required a lawyer who understood my situation and would be able to deliver results. Mr. Donath and his team were absolutely that and more. From his legal staff to Mr. Donath himself, they were professional and understanding throughout the process, thorough in their explanations of California criminal law, and super accommodating with my situation, being from outside the area. I highly recommend Mr. Donath and his team.
