Reviews: Molly P. Bagshaw
Molly is incredible!
Molly is simply outstanding. I feel privileged to have an attorney with her outstanding background, intelligence and work ethic. The first attribute you will notice and love is Her correspondence. She is always accessible. Normally attorneys don’t get right back with you. That is not the case with Molly she calls you back immediately and stays on top of your case from start to finish. The entire process went exactly as she told me it would in our first consultation. I cannot even begin to tell you what a relief it was to go through this process without any surprises. If you need representation get an attorney. If you need to win get Molly Bagshaw. My case took a little over a year and I think I went to court only two times she handled everything else. I’m not a paid spokesperson or a career criminal. Just someone who made a mistake and needed A lawyer That would care as much as I do about the outcome. Again folks Molly is that attorney. Please do yourself a favor and at least call her before you choose any other attorney to represent you!

Dedicated, Professional, and Passionate Defense Attorney
Molly works tirelessly for the best possible outcome for her clients. She is extremely professional, prepared, and well-equipped to handle anything that comes her way. Molly was easy to reach and communicative, which was very helpful when trying to understand a difficult and confusing process. With ever-changing schedules, Molly remained flexible and patient – she made me feel as though I was the only client she had at the time. Even though she possesses a caring and compassionate demeanor, there is nobody I would rather have fighting my case in court. She is aggressive, smart, and savvy when litigating for her clients. I would highly recommend Molly for any case and was given great peace of mind knowing that she was representing me in such an important matter.
