Michael Kevin Murphy

Mr. Murphy is an experienced military divorce lawyer, always professional, pleasant and understanding while expertly navigating the complex challenges associated with a military divorce. His knowledge of unique aspects of a military divorce proved to be of utmost importance in seeking a fair resol...ution and agreement. Mr. Murphy always provided excellent, concise and clear counsel. He was ethical, truthful and straightforward ensuring that every moment spent with the client was of value and necessary. With Mr. Murphy’s extensive knowledge of military regulation, policy and law, he was able to expertly and efficiently mitigate risks, manage and easily navigate legal processes, and resolve issues in a complex divorce case, while a less experienced attorney would not have been as effective resulting in costly and stressful delays. Mr. Murphy’s team complimented his legal counsel perfectly. Melissa his paralegal was always knowledgeable and efficient. Her proficiency of the nuances of military divorces further enhanced the legal services provided. I highly recommend Mr. Murphy without exception for any legal counsel during a military divorce.

Mike was initially brought on to help in what was supposed to be a fairly simple divorce where custody had been verbally granted to me by my ex. However, it turned into messy and contentious litigation over the custody of my son. Mike's guidance through this process was one of the chief reasons why w...e had the outcome that we did. While it was a team effort, Mike certainly took point and made sure that everyone was on the same page, and his willingness to also listen and give feedback on my own ideas was appreciated, and even took a good deal of my suggestions if he felt they would be truly beneficial to the case. He had immense empathy and did everything he could to represent our best interests, and in the end, we won more than we had even asked for in the initial agreement. Cannot speak highly enough about Mike.
