Wrongful Arrest

I came to Ryan to pursue a Wrongful Arrest case for DUI. Ryan was very knowledgeable and his confidence and understanding of the law made me feel a lot more comfortable to handle my case. Ryan is truly on your side and fights to get the best outcome for his clients. From start to finish, I was just s...o happy that I called Ryan Molaghan to handle my case and get me a monetary settlement from my wrongful arrest. Thank you again, Ryan.

I have retained Mr. Molaghan several times for assistance with various legal issues ranging from employment matters to business related issues to personal injury. He is always prepared and is an impressive litigator. He is aggressive but compassionate and in my experience, has shown an extremely qual...ified command of the law in the areas he practices. I would highly recommend his services if you are looking for an honest, hardworking, results driven attorney.

The Best!

Attorney Molaghan was absolutely the best! He was knowledgeable, attentive and really listened to my concerns. He was transparent with information, honest, fair and went above and beyond to meet the needs of my situation. He certainly exceeded my expectations. I immediately began recommending him to... others who may be in need of legal services.

No need to continue your search-

I always heard great things about Ryan but it wasn’t until I actually hired him that I realized what people were talking about- he was everything they said he was and more. From the very beginning, Ryan explained his job was to take care of my case and I could just continue on with life and he would ...let me know when he needed me- he lived up to this. He also made sure I did not feel ‘alone’ in the struggle of having to go through the process. Anytime I had a question, Ryan was available and provided detailed, elaborate responses. Not only was Ryan great at communicating but his assistant was as well. Ryan was able to gather everything we needed to get my case right and we were able to get the case to where it needed to be even BEFORE our set court date. Not to mention… we were able to get this settled even through the backlog of court cases which resulted from COVID. Ryan delivered a lot sooner than anticipated and I would recommended him to anyone who needs a solid, hardworking lawyer.

aggressive, easy communication, WE WON

Mr. Molaghan is persistent and easy to communicate with. He advised me through my complex lawsuit that ended up turning into 2 lawsuits. My former employee stole $13,000+ from me and although you would think they were easily at fault — the complexity of both lawsuits created some hurdles that Mr. Mo...laghan easily jumped over. WE WON!!!! And I got all my funds back and the thief received the proper punishment. I felt supported by my attorney through the long process and that someone was fighting for me who really wanted to justice for me and my hardship. If you ever need an attorney for any reason call him and if he can’t help you he will find someone in his firm that can.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
