If you are like most people going through a divorce, you are trying to make sense of the prospect of change - for you, your children, your extended family, and your friends. I want to help. My name is Molly B. Kenny and I have been a lawyer since 1980. I have been representing people in divorce cases since 1996. Our “legal family” of attorneys and staff recognize that people confronting divorce are facing a momentous time in their lives and are often caught between various confusing emotions and conflicting loyalties. You owe it to yourself to have an experienced professional by your side as you navagate the difficulties ahead. Call me and let's talk about your situation. Together we can find good solutions to difficult problems.
I can help with divorce, child custody, domestic violence, child support, alimony, asset division, and other family matters.
