Completely incompentatt

Do not use Jason unless you want someone that glosses over all aspects of your custody case and just cookie-cutters his way through it. He will put you in a situation that he is not capable of handling and will view your children as paychecks. Will charge you for every breath you take and will be ...completely unprepared for court. Maybe this was just me, however, my experience was a complete disaster.

Consulate Professional

I hired Jason Murphy to represent me in simultaneous civil and criminal cases. A consummate professional, always well prepared, he obtained favorable verdicts in both cases. Jason puts his clients best interest first and foremost .

Wonderful Attorney

I met Jason when I was seeking representation for my divorce. From the moment we met I felt at ease and that my interests were priority. Jason was compassionate, caring, and most importantly thoughtful in helping me understand the process and what would be best for everyone involved. Divorce i...s a difficult journey and there are many people involved and emotions run high; Jason was able to be the logical foundation and help me to seek out the most positive outcome for me and my children. And at not time did he forget that the people on the opposing side were human too. He is a genuinely caring individual who wants to do what is right for his client. He helped me through a very difficult case and I could not be more happy with the outcome. I highly recommend Jason to anyone seeking help.

Thank You!

I hired Jason to represent me in an ongoing dispute for alimony and equitable distribution. He took my case on and quickly got up to speed on this long and difficult dispute that had already been going on for more than two years. He methodically worked with the court to push my case towards a resolut...ion. His thorough research on the laws affecting my case finally brought this arduous experience to an end with the best possible outcome I could expect! He is honest and pleasure to work with. I would certainly recommend him for any friends that are going through a divorce or other legal issues.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I assisted on my first jury trial when Jason was still at the Orange County DA's office, watching him go toe-to-toe with my managing law partner John D. Loftin on a tough DWI case. Throughout the trial Jason was on top of his game, attentive, and prepared. Inside and outside of the courtroom his reputation precedes him. I highly endorse this lawyer."
