Attorneys

Elisabeth W. Molnar's practice focuses primarily on family law cases, including Divorce, Child Support and Custody. Her cases involve complex matters in these areas of the law, and handling the issues with key advice and care. Equally important to her practice is a client-oriented concept of returning telephone calls promptly, speaking realistically to clients about their cases and developing an overall comfort level with clients through the most difficult times in their lives. Attorney Molnar's practice is based upon satisfied clients referring their friends, family and other loved ones to her services, and said referrals are treated with the utmost respect and confidence. Although Ms. Molnar's practice is based almost entirely in family law, she also prepares Last Wills and Testaments, Powers of Attorney and Living Wills, as these documents frequently go hand in hand with family law matters. Attorney Molnar has worked with the law firm of Raphael, Ramsden & Behers for approximately six (6) years.
