Bates-Buchanan & Savitsky Law Group, P.A.

If you're seeking legal guidance that blends fierce advocacy with heartfelt care, Bates-Buchanan & Savitsky Law Group, P.A. is the team you want in your corner. Dawn Marie Bates-Buchanan and Susannah C. Savitsky--widely known as The Lady Lawyers of Florida--bring a rare combination of professionalism, emotional intelligence, and strategic clarity to every case. From estate planning and trust management to real estate and consumer law, they don't just handle paperwork--they protect legacies. Well-established in the Venice area and extending their reach into Sarasota and Bradenton, they meet clients where they are, both geographically and emotionally. What truly sets them apart is their deep compassion--not just for people, but for pets too. Their commitment to animal welfare shines through in their innovative pet trust services, ensuring that beloved dogs and furry companions are cared for even after an owner's passing. It's a reflection of their values: thoughtful planning, heartfelt protection, and a genuine love for family in all its forms. Their collaborative approach makes even the most complex legal processes feel manageable. They listen, honor family dynamics, and craft solutions that are both practical and personal. They're big enough to fight for you, small enough to care--and that's not just a tagline, it's how they operate. Highly recommend for anyone seeking legal support with soul.

I lucked out when I contacted B-B&S Law! I got their name and number from the internet. They were very reasonable with retainer rates. They hit the ground running, both Dawn B., and Susannah S., I was treated to frequent phone calls, text messages and an occasional snail mail letter keeping me informed. If I had a question either one or both was available to speak with me. They handled everything from location of the will (which took a little digging on there part as the live in care giver was less than forthcoming with information)to locating, collecting and distributing monies. My friend of 30+ years always told everyone I was her daughter and thanks to her and the great work of The Lady Lawyers, I will be comfortable the remaining years of my life. Thanks Dawn and Susannah for treating me like a friend and not a job and for taking such great care of me. I have never met either one in person but think of them as friends. Bless them both!
