The Compassionate Attorney You Need on Your Side
Molly Brazil is an experienced North Carolina Family Law Attorney. She focuses exclusively on domestic matters including child support, child custody, equitable distribution, domestic violence protective orders, and separation agreements. While litigation can be necessary to reach a resolution in domestic disputes, Molly is known for obtaining extraordinarily negotiated resolutions that spare her clients from even having to enter the courtroom.
Sometimes, legal negotiations can go off the rails and reach a place where it feels like an amicable resolution is no longer plausible. In a recent separation agreement case, after negotiations became emotionally charged, the parties began to feel like they were too far apart to reach an agreement. Molly was able to bring opposing counsel back to a place of common ground and was able to show the parties were closer in their positions than it seemed. After arranging a private mediation, Molly was able to help her client reach a peaceable resolution without the long court battle. Both parties were thrilled with the result. With the legal dispute behind them, both parties were able to shift their focus to co-parenting and raising their children.
When litigation is necessary, Molly enters the courtroom with an unmatched level of preparation. Recently, Molly was able to help lower a father’s child support payment by nearly $200/month despite the fact that the father owed more pursuant to the NC Child Support Guideline calculations. She convinced both the mother and the Court that a lower child support amount was still perfectly sufficient. Now, the father does not have to operate under the pressure of living paycheck to paycheck and the children are adequately provided for. Win, win.
Molly was born and raised in Asheville, North Carolina. Unwilling to part from the North Carolina mountains, she attended undergrad at Appalachian State in Boone North Carolina. Molly went on to earn her Law Degree from Elon University School of Law where she was honored by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers North Carolina Chapter with an award recognizing her for leadership and excellence in the advancement of Family Law. Molly is continuously inspired by her clients and gets immense satisfaction from seeing them gather their courage and leave sometimes horrendous situations.
Molly continually strives to make each client feel comfortable and safe. She is an extremely warm yet deeply protective person, it’s an instinctive part of her personality. This allows her to connect to her clients during some of the hardest times of their lives, at a time where they are at their most vulnerable, Molly protects their interests so they can concentrate on what matters most: family.
“I want my clients to come as they are and feel safe to express their feelings in the moment. My hope is not only for clients to leave a consult feeling like they have someone on their side but also for them to begin the healing process and feel hopeful about the future.”
If you have a Family Law matter Molly is fully prepared to try to get a resolution without a trial but equally ready to roll up her sleeves and battle it out in a courtroom if needed. Contact her today for a consultation.

★★★★★ – Debby
“I cannot express how pleased I was with Molly Brazil and the entire staff. Molly was extremely responsive and very knowledgeable about the details of my separation and possible divorce. She made me feel safe and confident every step of the way. I am impressed how well the staff worked as a team and how caring, compassionate and genuine they are. Molly is wonderful, caring, very easy to talk to and knows her stuff. So glad that I chose her and the firm to represent me. Although my husband and I chose to reconcile I would highly recommend Molly to anyone looking for the best!”
★★★★★ – SarahRose
“This firm is stellar. Molly Brazil is a phenomenal attorney. During my separation agreement negotiations, Molly and her team were extremely communicative, professional, personable, kind, and focused. Molly’s passion for getting the very best outcome for her clients was extremely evident in everything that she did in my case. When faced with setbacks from opposing counsel, Molly persevered with grace and a single-minded focus on me and my child. I am so grateful to Molly and the entire team at Dummit Fradin. Molly Brazil, [attorney], [paralegal], and [paralegal] were all stand outs, and I can’t recommend this firm highly enough.”
