Eno Martin Donahue legal traditions date back from 1887 with excellent reputations in northeast Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire. Arthur Eno, the Harvard-educated son of a district court judge who served for almost 40 years, opened his own practice in 1948, and is still of counsel to our current firm. Matt Donahue represents the current generation of a legal family that practiced in Lowell as Donahue & Donahue Attorneys P.C. from 1887 until the present firm was established.
Today, our six lawyers provide coordinated, farsighted and affordable client service that covers the full range of business law needs as well as a wide variety of personal and family issues. Our practical and flexible approach to your situation is designed to resolve your immediate legal problems while helping you anticipate and plan for future risks and opportunities.
Our Vision
We value lessons learned and we will use those practical experiences to our
client’s advantage. At the same time, we will be progressive enough to add
innovation to those time-tested practices to achieve optimum results.
While we take a modern approach to solving historic problems, our clients
continually face new 21st century issues. Those efforts demand fresh and creative
solutions, and require a willingness to search beyond precedent.
We will provide the appropriate level of counsel in all practice areas. We will
be aggressive advocates when necessary, but never intimidating to our clients.
We will not lose focus on the goal of advancing your position through a prompt,
positive and affordable solution.
Our Approach
EM&D is helping to set the standard for a new generation of attorneys and law firms with our approach to legal fees and related costs. Simply stated, we believe that ‘buying’ legal services should be similar in process to other products and services that you ‘buy’ in your personal and professional life. You want to know what you are getting and what it will cost before you take it to the cashier.
Although ‘buying’ legal services may not always be quite that simplistic, the old approach to billing can be greatly simplified to your advantage. Our goals are:
Realistic expectations
Creative solutions
Affordable cost
You come to us with a definite need but not necessarily an infinite budget. We work with you to insure that you do not ‘overbuy’ in terms of the process and the desired result. At the same time, we explain all the ramifications of ‘under buying’ and its potential affect on outcome. At EM&D, we build solutions not fees and we are very up-front about including ways to minimize cost in our initial discussions because we believe you deserve a meaningful sense of budget at the beginning of the process. We are aggressive advocates with an unusual sensitivity to manage litigation and we preplan well enough to control your budget.
We are easy to work with. Many of our business clients appreciate the fact that we are also here for personal matters like home mortgages, investments and civil issues. There is value in having one law firm, who knows you, handle all your legal needs.
Our law firm with all its talent, history and energy is unique in the Merrimack Valley. We stand poised to serve everyone from Boston to Southern New Hampshire with the same expertise found in larger firms, but at affordable cost.
