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.

I retained Mike and Rebecca to represent me in what even the presiding judge admitted was one of the most complex cases he'd ever seen. Basically, my ex spouse manufactured allegations against me which she used to remove our minor children from the Commonwealth to return to her home state without my... knowledge or consent. I had to fight tooth and nail to try and clear my name and get my kids back. Well, Mike and Rebecca did just that. They met every legal challenge professionally and with decisions that were in the best interest of the children. The result is that ALL of the children have been returned home to Virginia with me having primary custody AND I retained ALL of my assets. Note: I am also a lawyer who knows great legal work...this is such a case. The best interest of the child(ren) is THE standard.

I retained Michael Murphy to assist me with reducing my spousal support obligation after suffering a stroke and being forced into a medical retirement. Michael took the time to understand my situation and adeptly devised a strategy that resulted in a favorable outcome. If you are looking for an att...orney that will be a fierce advocate for you while managing risk, he is the one for you.
