Anderson, Molly

I was raised in Brandon, Vermont. I am a third generation graduate of the Mount Saint Joseph Academy in Rutland and a fourth generation graduate of the University of Vermont. While attending the latter I was a member of the University's nationally recognized debate team and won a few large debate tournaments. After college I secured a job at Sun Financial in Boston assisting stockbrokers with securities transactions. I thereafter continued my southern migration by attending and graduating from the College of William and Mary Law School in Williamsburg, Virginia. That school has an on-going argument with Harvard regarding which started educating lawyers first. During that time I was fortunate to spend a summer interning in the chambers of Vermont's bankruptcy judge and was allowed to write the first draft of a major opinion. I was also a staff member for the school's constitutional law journal.

Following graduation from William and Mary I returned to Vermont and became an associate at the Rutland law firm of Webber, Reis, Holler & Urso located next door to Pratt Vreeland. While there I worked almost exclusively with civil trial lawyer Bob Reis, "carrying his bags" as second chair for trials and drafting all of his pleadings. I obtained first chair trial experience during that period of time by creating a criminal defense practice for the firm. When Attorney Reis passed away in 2011, I assumed leadership of that firm's civil litigation practice, winning a jury trial and multiple cases via summary judgment, settling or continuing to litigate the rest.

Following the death of Bob Reis, I have elected to join the firm of Pratt Vreeland Kennelly Martin and White, Ltd., "Of Counsel," in 2013. My practice continues to focus on civil litigation including commercial litigation, personal injury litigation, insurance coverage and defense litigation, and professional malpractice litigation.

When I am not working I spend the bulk of my free time providing respite to my yeoman wife from chasing our young daughter within and outside our home. I also golf, poorly, roughly ten times a year and captain a bocce team.
