Posted by Phyllis | February 10, 2026 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Knows when her presence is needed or not in Court.

Molly nicely handled a delicate situation in my son's custody case in which I was paying the bill. Her strategies worked and she only involved me when necessary. I also appreciated her timing of when she needed to be involved or appropriate for her colleague. In a state where the mother usually pre...vails, she managed a positive outcome for my son.

Understanding, responsive, strategic

I chose Molly for her expertise in international custody issues. She was sympathetic, attentive, and offered a clear plan right away. During difficult times, she kept me on track and was responsive and strategic throughout. I'm very satisfied with my divorce and custody results and highly recommend M...olly.

Highly Recommend

Molly's strategic approach combined with her direct communication style and emotional intelligence were exactly what I needed to finalize a tumultuous divorce and custody case. She set realistic, fair expectations and was a skilled scenario-planner who could anticipate outcomes based on previous exp...erience and knowledge of the law. Molly knows when to dial it up or down and was a strong advocate throughout several twists and turns. I'd highly recommend her.

Totally Got it

Molly Sharma was extremely skilled both in court and when negotiating. She explained things and was very responsive. She would do an excellent job of being honest about when to save fees and when to pursue an issue. She gave me firm advice at times but always to my benefit and told me when to think ...through an issue for a little more time which was helpful. She was the best

Posted by Steve | June 12, 2018 | Hired Attorney

Highly Recommended

Molly worked diligently to resolve my case. I most appreciated the fact that she was a great listener and paid attention to all the details of my situation. In addition, she is very responsive, professional, knowledgeable, and experienced. I'm grateful to have worked with her and feel that the final ...outcome was the best for my family. I have already recommended her to others.
