The best there is

Client was out on bond when rearrested. Mr Molloy got his first pending cast resolved in a little over a month and the second in 6 months to the day. He is an excellent attorney and I can’t recommend him enough.

Mr. Dr. Molloy is an honest and caring Lawyer

I can only praise Mr. Dr. Douglas Molloy for his honest, caring, fair, reliable and "smart" handling of the cases. He is also only a human being. If there were some misunderstanding (what two reviews show), please think about, maybe there were some communication issues, and not everybody gets along ...with everyone, that is human nature. But please Mr. Dr. Douglas Molloy for it. God bless you Mr. Dr. Douglas Molloy.

DO NOT HIRE

Worse attorney ever. Doesn’t even deserve one star. Nothing but a liar. He’s disrespectful and arrogant. Hired him for my son’s case and he did nothing. Lied about the state coming down, lied about you only do 50 percent of your sentence, lied about everything. Pretending he could do someth...ing when he knew he couldn’t. Pretending to know people when he doesn’t. If you have a choice between two lawyers, go with the other one. Even a public defender is better than him.

What an honest and caring lawyer

Thank You Mr. Douglas Molloy. It was an honour for me to contact You and discuss several possibilities of my stepson's case. Your honesty, caring, fair and incredible knowledge go behind any expectation. May God bless and protect You.

Above and Beyond

Doug and I have been friends for close to thirty years. We met when he was with the DOJ as Federal Prosecutor through a mutual circle of friends. It wasn't until my oldest son needed his expertise and that thirty years of experience on the other side, that led us to a fair and favorable outcome. Be ...careful of all the TV lawyers who have never seen the inside of the courtroom. They would be my last choice when someone you love matters more than anything. Experience Matters!!!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
