At Stockham Law Group, Donna DeVaney Stockham specializes in property damage insurance claims, representing homeowners, business owners, condominium associations and more. Stockham got into law wanting to be an FBI agent, but realized that she enjoyed and excelled at trial work. After serving as a defense lawyer for nine years, she was attracted to the niche of property insurance litigation.

“I represent clients who have denied or underpaid property insurance claims. If an insured thinks their insurance company has not treated them fairly, I review their claim and see if there is something to pursue,” she says. “Some clients have mold in their house that makes their kids sick or a damaged roof that leaks when it rains. Knowing I’m helping people is what keeps me going.”

This year marks nine years since the launch of Stockham Law Group, which has grown to five offices in three states, eight lawyers and numerous employees. In her downtime, Stockham spends time with her husband, three daughters, three dogs, her cat and enjoys water activities.
