Caring, Compassionate, Collaboration

Family disputes are a natural part of life and there is nothing shameful, or more difficult, than going through a difficult family experience – it is a privilege for me to walk alongside someone through that process and make it to the other side of promise and opportunity. The unique factors of every client’s story keep me engaged and challenged by this career choice.

I have affordable fees to preserve your assets, I care about client’s maintaining their emotional well-being, and client’s controlling their outcome with non-litigation options to resolve family disputes. Court intervention is the last resort, not the default option.

Understand client’s objectives and goals at onset of attorney/client relationship. Determine together what is best route to achieve the client’s objectives and work harmoniously toward reaching objective as effectively, efficiently and as caringly as possible.

We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned,
so as to have the life that is waiting for us to embrace.

What our clients are saying…

From my first contact with Thomas-McDonald Law, everything went swimmingly well. The discovery period of finding what our needs were to determining fees was informative not to mention kind and compassionate. This describes the services Aislynn and her team provided — kind and compassionate at a difficult juncture in our lives as they went out of their way to make finalizing the transaction possible. If you’re looking for a lawyer for estate planning, call Thomas-McDonald Law. I cannot recommend them enough!

Aislynn provided excellent legal advice and guidance. She is very intelligent, efficient in her work, and very personable. Aislynn helped me to overcome during the most difficult time in my life. She genuinely cared for me and my children. I am eternally grateful to have had her in my life.

– Nicole

My case was an especially tough uphill battle, but Aislynn refused to let me give up – or give in…three years later, on the eve of trial, we finally settled for far more than I ever hoped to receive. She strove to exceed my objectives.
