  • “My divorce was a chaotic time in my life, but having Molly Miller by my side brought me immense peace. I was always calling her with a million questions, and she never made me feel like she didn’t have time for me. Molly was clear about all the steps and what to expect. Whenever we had to send anything back to my ex-husband, she explained the potential outcomes and our next steps so there were never any surprises. From the start, I told her that my son was my priority and to keep him safe. Once, when we needed a police escort to avoid chaos, the police initially refused. I called Molly, and within minutes, she had arranged for a police escort. I don’t know what magic she used, but she got it done. I’m so grateful to Molly — she literally saved my life and my son’s life.

    I remember the final day in court; it was just the two of us. My ex-husband’s lawyer was being super condescending, but I felt empowered. Everything worked out in the best possible way and I turned to Molly and said, “Yes, we did this.” I am always and forever thankful for her.” – Ashley, Former Client 

        
  •  “I had gone through a custody battle before, but I wasn’t thrilled with my attorney. I needed someone more assertive and protective. A colleague referred me to Schoonmaker George, where I was connected to Molly. I felt an immediate connection with her. From then on, I always felt like she truly cared about me as a person and a human being, not just as a client.

    The custody process was one of the most traumatic experiences of my life. Molly’s understanding of my situation, especially dealing with a narcissistic ex, was invaluable. She had the emotional intelligence to navigate the complexities and strategically planned every step.

    Molly was upfront about costs and worked with me to avoid a trial and minimize expenses. She suggested hosting a deposition, which my first attorney never mentioned. That deposition was a game changer, preventing us from going to trial and revealing critical information about my ex. Molly always knew what I was willing to compromise on and what I wasn’t. She guided me with integrity, working to keep costs down while ensuring my best interests and my son’s were prioritized.

    Her responsiveness was exceptional, even connecting with me during off-hours when needed. If she couldn’t talk immediately, her paralegal would assist, and I always knew when she’d be available. She prepared me well for the deposition, and she was impressive and compassionate throughout the process.

    On the day we were supposed to go to trial the second time, Molly saw my ex’s attorney at the courthouse. She seized the opportunity to address the damaging information revealed in the deposition, and was able to get him to settle, avoiding the trial altogether.

    Molly has a special place in my life and will always be on a pedestal, because she protected what mattered most to me—my son. I am forever grateful.” – Former Client
