J Murphy Law Firm

Mr. Murphy was extremely helpful in handling my case quickly and efficiently with little or no effort. MR Murphy was successful in obtaining a favorable result for my situation and I would seek his council for any future issues. Upon my referral to several friends, Mr Murphy, successfully handled th...eir cases with positive outcomes as well. Without a doubt I strongly recommend Mr Murphy’s practice as his team is professional, quick and highly reliable. Michael Jordan, Elizabeth PA

Excellent choice!

I had hired this firm to represent me in a credit card case filed against me by Midland Funding LLC. They were all very respectful and professional. They took the reins and took care of any and all interactions with the court and their lawyers, which absolutely helped me through an experience I had n...ever been in before. They kept in contact with me and left me know about every step that was taken and ultimately landed the case in my favor! I couldn’t thank them enough, and would hire them again in a heartbeat!

Excellent and Fast

I hired J Murphy Firm to defend against credit card suit. Wow, are they on point! They got the ball moving as soon as retained and filed answers and notice of entry before I realized what was going on! Also, the staff is knowledgeable and gives you answers, not just the regular "attorney will call yo...u back". I will leave another review once the case has been heard, but from Amanda and the staff, straight through...100% professional and courtesy.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
