Terry has been my legal counsel for all of my business needs for over a decade. I regularly ask him to review contracts, update business documents, and recently he updated our trust. I highly recommend Terry for his thoroughness and great communication.

Just went through a nasty divorce where equity in real estate was in question. The opposition (ex-wife and ex-mother-in-law) hired a reputable large firm to represent them. Terry Doherty from Doherty Law Firm was recommended to me by another firm. After an initial meeting with Terry, I hired Doherty Law Firm and couldn't have been happier with the results. The opposition claimed that I wasn't entitled to any equity in the home. To resolve the issue, we had to file suit. It was nice to have someone believe in you and your case and was willing to fight to get me what was fair. The effort Terry put into my case resulted in me getting my half of the equity and that the home being declared marital property. With the facts and package Terry put together, there wasn't a need to go in front of the judge. The case was settled out of court. If you have any Real Estate issues, I highly recommend Doherty Law Firm!

I am disillusioned with my experience with Dawn... as someone that I trusted and paid to represent me in my divorce (during one of the most difficult times of my life), looking back, I am very disappointed in my experience. She accidentally forwarded me an email she sent to my exes lawyer where she complained about me TO MY EXES LAWYER. After my divorce, I am also VERY disappointed with the outcome of working with Dawn, as someone who I paid to help me with my ability to financially care for myself and my children.

Dawn helped me with a modification of parenting time and child support. At times, the case got emotional and contentious, but Dawn was excellent at focusing on the true issues, proving our side, and staying professional. In the end, it worked in our favor. Her legal assistant, Jessica, is also very professional and easy to work with. I'm thankful they were both in my corner when I needed them!

If you want a lawyer that's going to pat you on the back and tell you everything will be rainbows, Dawn isn't that person. But if you want someone who you can trust, who will always be 100% honest, and be straightforward with you, Dawn is your lawyer. Dawn and Jessica put up with my constant worrying, the multiple email days, and phone calls where I just had to vent frustrations. I am very thankful to have had Dawn on my side and I know my case wouldn't have gone as well as it did without her and Jessica's hard work.
Now some rules for the office:
1. Dont be a jerk.
2. Bring cookies.
3. Always be honest no matter what.
Seriously though, if you are going through a divorce and want the best, it's Dawn.

Dawn and everyone at the office was amazing during my divorce. It was difficult for me to find someone who I could trust and I am glad that I found someone who took such great care of me during a difficult time in my life. Everyone at the office showed great compassion and helped me through each step of the process. Thank you!

Thank you to Dawn, Elizabeth and Jessica. It was difficult for me to find someone who I could trust and I am glad that I found someone who took such great care of me during a difficult time in my life. Everyone at the office showed great empathy and helped me through each step of the process. These women are kind, compassionate, respectful, understanding and objective. They show incredible tack, and even scolded me when I needed it. I am happy to recommend these 3 ladies! YOU GIRLS ROCK!

First off, Divorce isn’t easy. . . To whomever is reading this review I am extremely sorry for the heartache you have endured and Unfortunately I too know your pain all too well! Experiencing the floor fall out from beneath your feet and the world around you crumble is like being in a dream you can’t wake up from. . Trust me, your not alone. . The heartache and sadness are tough enough to deal with as it is and once you add court documents and a MASSIVE AMOUNT of financial information to the already stressful situation it can flat out be OVERWHELMING and all consuming. . Hiring an attorney for a divorce was a situation I thought (like you probably did) I would NEVER be in! Unfortunately Life tends to throw a few sneaky punches every now and then to catch us off guard and drop us to our knees, and i promise it will keep you there if you allow it to. . . SO DONT LET IT!!!
When I realized I needed more help than I cared to ask for I hired Dawn! Not only am I incredibly grateful for this woman, this decision was absolutely one of the best decisions I made throughout the entire process! Dawn handled EVERYTHING!!!! She took care of all appointments that needed to be scheduled, all paperwork, all financial information and continually kept me updated on anything new that surfaced. The amount of emails she had to send back and fourth and paperwork she had to file was unbelievable!! There would have been absolutely NO WAY I mentally or emotionally could have handled all of that in the broken state I was in! Dawn made the entire process go very smoothly, which in turn gave me the time to heal and get back up on my feet! I never had to worry about paperwork or anything and that alone was worth every penny!! She is an amazing person and has a great sense of humor! Between Dawn and her legal assistant Jessica I could not have asked for a bigger blessing! They are both one heck of a team and you can tell they genuinely care about their clients! Jessica is incredibly smart and has a great sense of humor as well!! She was always there to answer any of my questions and made sure Dawn was up-to-date with all my information. . I could always count on a smile on my face after talking to Jessica because I knew these two amazing women were working hard on my case! Dawn and Jessica were the pitbull’s that I desperately needed in my corner and I can say with upmost sincerity that they fought just as hard as a pitbull would and we’re relentless to make sure when I walked out the door I knew there was a light at the end of the tunnel!
Please do yourself a favor and hire Dawn to help you! You don’t have to go through this alone, please don’t allow the pain and heartache to overwhelm you as it so easily does! Instead. . . Run to a professional and Allow Dawn to do what she does best!! This will allow you to focus on your healIng and remind yourself (as I had to do) that just because you got knocked down doesn’t mean you have to stay there!! You WILL get through this, you WILL feel normal again and you WILL begin to see blue sky’s and feel the warmth of the sun on your face!! I promise!!! So Let this woman fight for you, you won’t regret it!!!!
Thank you Dawn and Jessica, I could have never done it without you!!! You gave me hope again!
With my highest respect,
Andrew R.

Terry has been my attorney for over 6 years and has been a fantastic help to me for both business and personal matters. For lease agreements, Buy/Sell agreements, Estate Planning and just general legal matters - he does great work. He communicates so well and speaks "plain English" as well as "legal-ease".

If your attorney isn't concerned about your credibility in front of a judge- find another attorney. Dawn was great, knows how to represent her clients credibly in court, knows what battles to pick and what to forgo, is empathetic without becoming enmeshed. She knows how to confront high conflict issues while keeping her clients grounded. As with any attorney, do your homework, read and double check documents, but Dawn provided a great value for my expenses and really tried to keep the overhead low. Wonderful experience and will use again if needed.
