Outstanding Attorney
Attorney Lavin was hired after we were unable to get the insurance company to process and pay the injury claims, which included broken bones. After many letters and phone calls, we ultimately received a "take it or leave it" offer from the insurance company. We then contacted Molly Lavin. We are so grateful that Attorney Lavin was able to fight for us, and ultimately recover many times over their take it or leave it offer. We are not originally from this state, and frankly we were shocked at how the insurance company conducted itself on a case that involved injuries caused by someone else, especially where children were involved. Attorney Lavin handled the process, and was outstanding in taking the extra time to help explain to us and the children what was happening during the trial preparation and ultimate negotiation process. We are so very thankful to Attorney Lavin and her team for fighting for us.

Molly Lavin
Molly was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. She kept me up to date on all proceedings and helped me understand the entire process. She was thorough in her questiong of me to validate my claim prior to spending time pursuing my case. She handled the defense appropriately and was clear in her direction to me.

Review of Molly Lavin for an auto accident / personal injury claim.
Molly Lavin did an excellent job, I can't say enough good things. Her expertise in the field, coupled with her research and tenacity were very impressive. Additionally, her tenor during mediation set was strong and confident. Because of all the work she put into the case, and her ability to see the big picture, yet be cognizant of details, particularly during her deposition of the opposing 'expert witness', our case was resolved just before trial. And, important to note, the case was settled for almost exactly what we were seeking. If I am in need of an attorney again, Molly will be the first person I talk to!
