Domestic Violence

Hired Attorney Donna K. Rismiller

Donna's name was on a referral list provided to me by the Family Justice Center. I was seeking an experienced attorney on issues related to domestic violence. After having an intake session with Donna, I entered into a retainer with her, hiring her to represent me in a highly contested protective order appeal at the circuit level (I was the petitioner and had been successful in securing the original district court protective order but was looking for a trauma-informed lawyer for the appeal). By the time I began working with Donna I had spoken to many attorneys and had worked with 2 different ones, but with Donna's compassionate, in-depth understanding of coercion and control within domestic violence cases, I knew she was the most perfect person that I, a victim of abuse, needed to advocate for me through the appeal process and on the day of the hearing. She is extremely competent, trustworthy, and was respectful of my choices; she had my best interests in mind and heart. So grateful!

Hired Attorney Donna K. Rismiller

I have been a client of Donna Rismiller and RLG for several years dealing with an abusive, high-conflict ex-husband. Throughout it all, Donna and her firm have shown extraordinary skill in addressing the many issues in our case. Court proceedings can be mystifying and intimidating, and Donna has a rare mix of a quick mind, an unparalleled understanding of the law, expertise in dealing with abusive personalities, compassion, and thoughtfulness that put me at ease. She and RLG have been instrumental in us gaining our lives back, and I am deeply grateful for their care with my case. I highly recommend Donna Rismiller and RLG, particularly for those dealing with abusive, high-conflict exes to protect what is most dear.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
