Linda A. Molta-Tetrault

Linda Molta-Tetreault represented me and my daughter from 1993 through 3/2014. Her work included intricate child support and custody issues. My ex-husband abandoned our daughter at birth and disappeared to the west coast. He reappeared three years later to file for custody and visitation privileges.... He did not paid child support or inquire about her well-being during his absence. Linda and I were in court on an almost monthly basis for at least two years, then at least semi-annually until March of 2014. Our main concern for the first several years was that he would take my daughter and vanish with her. Linda so forcefully represented us during that time that his visits were conducted on a minimal basis, in the security of my parents home, and in the presence of a family friend. During 20 years of work on this case, for everything from child support and medical insurance to college tuition, Linda fought ferociously and passionately; not only for the safety of my daughter, but also so that she would be allowed to grow up without feeling encumbered by this narcissistic man. Linda represented us with the heart of a lion and the love of a mother, and because she knew I had no resources to pay her, she did almost all of this pro bono. My daughter graduated from college last week (05/10/14), and of course Linda was on the phone offering her love and congratulations. I feel safe to say that without Linda, my daughter would have had a much different childhood, and a not so promising future. I cannot adequately thank her for her work, her compassion, and her dedication over these many years.
