Biography

Molly Kenny, who grew up in the Midwest and has been licensed to practice law since 1980, has always had a passion for practicing law.

Molly completed her undergraduate studies at Michigan State University. Upon graduating with honors, she attended law school at Ohio's University of Dayton, where she was an editor on the law review and published 2 articles. She received her Juris Doctor (J.D.) degree and graduated cum laude.

Yearning for adventure, she moved west immediately upon graduation. After clerking for a federal judge in Portland, Oregon, she relocated to Seattle and worked at the Public Defender's office where she started trying cases immediately.

Shortly thereafter, Molly moved onto working for a large firm focusing on complex litigation, including securities cases and legal malpractice. She gained substantial experience in handling and managing complex commercial and business cases.

When Molly added family law to her practice areas, she found the area was the best fit for her. She is divorced and was a single mother who raised 2 boys from a very young age. They have now grown up to be amazing young men. But that experience gave her an insight into divorce and single parenthood that cannot be garnered from a book. She has developed a great deal of skill in handling high conflict divorces and has a significant interest in domestic violence. She is passionate about her clients and their families and is committed to helping them move into a future with hope and clarity. Molly’s practice focuses principally on all areas of family law.

Molly is rated AV - the highest possible rating - by her peers through the Martindale and Hubble rating process. Molly was listed as one of Seattle's Top Lawyers in 2010. In 2014, Molly was recognized as a Superb Family Law attorney and Client's Choice by Avvo.com.
