An exceptional family lawyer for military servicemembers...truly an expert in the field!

When I think of Michael Kevin Murphy, words like TRUST; SUPERIOR KNOWLEDGE; MILITARY SERVICE; DEDICATION; CARING and SECOND-TO-NONE immediately come to my mind. Michael Murphy is, in my opinion, the best choice for anyone in need of a family law attorney in Northern Virginia. He is a man of unquestio...nable integrity and enjoys a sterling reputation in the courts and among his colleagues. During my initial consultation, Mike made me feel comfortable and listened to me. From that point, to the end of my divorce, I knew I had chosen the right attorney and the right law firm! Mike and his staff consistently offered sound advice and helped me through the difficult process with consistency and a sense of purpose. As a former Army officer, Ranger and combat veteran, Mike has a deep and profound understanding of the nuances of military life and the legal considerations attendant thereto. He and his team will be of immeasurable benefit to anyone in need of family law services, but military members will particularly benefit from his knowledge and experience. He is an expert in the law and he understands the needs of military service families. If you are seeking a trustworthy, knowledgeable, experienced and caring representative, I highly recommend Michael Murphy. You will receive "first-rate" services with outstanding results. One final note: in my time as a client of the Law Offices of Michael Kevin Murphy, not only did I obtain an exceptional attorney but I also gained a friend. I fully recommend and endorse Mr. Michael K. Murphy without reservation.

I strongly recommend Mike and his team for your military divorce in Fairfax County.

A first rate divorce attorney that delivers outstanding results

When I think of Mr. Michael K. Murphy words like top-tier, superlative, exemplary, first-class, and second to none immediatley come to mind. While serving overseas, I found myself in need of a divorce attorney. After doing a thoruogh internet seach of Divorce Attorneys in Fairfax, VA and reading Mr. ...Murphy's profile and reviews, I decided he was the type of Attorney that I was seeking. I could not have made a better decision in choosing him to represent me. From the first consultation until the final divorce, Mr. Murphy provided a high level of competency and guidance. I have absolutely no regrets in hiring him and received the exact results that I expected. He kept me up-to-date throughout the entire process, leaving very few questions to be asked. Whenever I had any questions, he always provided clear answers and made certian that I totally understood all of the agreements in the divorce order prior to my signing. If you are seeking high-quality representation, I highly reccommend Mr. Murphy, you will surely receive "first-rate" services with outstanding results.
