Dona Feeney has been a trial lawyer since 1988 appearing in cases representing clients in both State and Federal Court throughout New Jersey and the northeastern United States. Dona has devoted her practice to litigation and arbitration. Dona has litigated or arbitrated a broad range of cases in the contract, product liability, construction, employment and insurance coverage areas. Her reputation, experience, careful preparation and commitment to her clients have yielded results that have earned her the respect and recognition of her peers.
For more than 25 years, Dona has brought her science background, skill and determination to bear in all matters in which she has counseled and advocated for clients involved in workplace disputes, medical malpractice, negligence, injuries from dangerous buildings and property, or from defective products or equipment. Her meticulous and firm approach has successfully resolved such diverse matters as complex, multiple-party personal injury cases, Bergen County flip-fee cases, and clergy abuse claims. Her work is characterized by a no-nonsense, cost effective approach to the process, with an eye for fair voluntary settlement, but also with the seasoned skills, determination, and attention to detail necessary for successful litigation.
