Molly Beth Kleinfelter

HORRIBLE and a disgrace to family court and justice system!!! We had her as our master for custody conciliation. She is BIAS and also very disrespectful!!! She has no heart and sides with the abusive manipulating parent. She also screamed at me and was very rude and nasty to me. She listens to the ma...nipulation and lies the other parent spews and barely let me talk. She let that parent talk first and after I was totally “character annihilated”by my ex and then I have to defend defend defend against lies and manipulation but she barley let me talk. She doesn’t care about any child and should Not be in this position of power by any means! They need to remove her! Not a good job for someone like her she is unfair and unjust! Shame on her!! I wanted a different master but my Lawyer said that was impossible to ask for??? She already has a skewed opinion of me because of my ex she sides with CONSISTENTLY every time we go in there and my ex keeps us in there by constantly taking me to court and filing to keep me it if my child’s life!…so no matter what the outcome of our conciliation it never goes in my favor or what is best for my child….and it’s so heartbreaking. She is completely destroying families and hurting children by keeping them with abusers and away from the actual good loving parent and she does not care!!!!

It's truly lamentable that Molly B. Kleinfelter continues to hold the esteemed position of an officer of the court when her conduct suggests a blatant disregard for basic human decency, particularly towards women. Reflecting on my recent interaction with her during a hearing, it dawned on me that she... was the same attorney as a hearing officer in Berks County involved in my prior tumultuous divorce proceedings. In those dark times, instead of offering empathy or practical solutions, she callously suggested homelessness as a viable option for me and my children when financial strain became apparent and my ex was amassing three rental properties while taking me back to court 21 times in one year to reduce his support of $150/month for two kids. Her demeanor during our recent encounter was no less appalling, as she wielded threats and intimidation tactics to silence any objections to her unjust support recommendations. It's baffling. It's abundantly clear that her unsuitability for private practice has led her to cling to a role where her incompetence thrives unchecked. This is incompetence at its most egregious, tarnishing the very fabric of justice she's meant to uphold.

I don't typically go out of my way to write reviews, but I feel compelled to caution others about this individual. Their wielding of power and authority in matters involving families is concerning. From the outset of the hearing, their demeanor was notably rude. They seemed eager to find any excuse t...o dismiss the case and require a return visit, rather than fulfilling their responsibilities. Their treatment of those present resembled that of criminals, despite this being a family court proceeding. Parents in family court are not criminals. During questioning, she would often abruptly divert attention to the other party, disregarding the current speaker. Requests to submit evidence for the record were met with refusal, only for the final report to claim "lack of evidence"—an act that is highly unprofessional. Additionally, their demeanor includes glaring and intimidating behavior, reminiscent of scolding a child. It's disheartening to see individuals with such temperaments wield such power. I strongly advise avoiding any interaction with them if possible.
