Claire Marie Folk

Michael Murphy epitomizes the word professional! My first experience retaining counsel to represent me in a situation where I was full of doubt, he lent me knowledge in laymen's terms and was confident in his representation of me. I have already referred him to a close friend and would refer his enti...re group 1,000 times over. My experience was successful and fair.

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.
