Firstly, I have professionally worked with many family law attorneys and had the opportunity to see some great ones and some "not so great" ones. However, I never worked professionally with Kathleen, but was representing myself in a nasty custody battle. I was fighting for my daughters and was strug...gling in court, mainly because I didn't lie and try to make my ex look bad. You would think that taking the high road would work....LOL. Kathleen just happened to be in court and witnessed my integrity getting destroyed by the other party. I became visibly upset and couldn't control my emotions and that is when Kathleen approached me and told me to relax, stay calm and she walked me out of court and talked me off the ledge. Kathleen told me to call her the next day, which I did. She spend a good amount of time telling me exactly what I needed to hear. She was so "to the point" and unlike other attorneys I had spoken to who could NEVER just give me a STRAIGHT answer, Kathleen didn't give me a 100 different possible outcomes or options. She told me what my rights were and what to do and what not to do...AND THAT WAS IT. I took her advice and went back to the other party and they immediately agreed to what I had put in writing! I called Kathleen, who was so happy for me. I did end up hiring her to review the agreement and have the judge sign off on it. I have since referred one person, who retained Kathleen and can't stop thanking me for the referral, as he did not have a good experience with his first attorney.

Kathleen is amazing. I can not express my gratitude enough to her for saving me from my volatile and extremely difficult ex husband. She looked out for me and my son's best interest. She truly cares about her clients and works hard. She believed in me and was able to give me and my son the outcome we... needed. She was there during my most emotional moments and encouraged me to fight. She was definitely in my corner and I have custody of my son and look forward to working with her for the entirety of my divorce and trust that I am in the best hands. She showed no fear in the face of my violent and manipulative ex, and stood up to him and did the right thing for my child. She is in the right occupation, she is truly gifted. I am so happy to have her in my life and at my side during this crazy time. I could not disagree more with the review that says she only cares about money and does little work and doesn't answer emails. She answered ever one of my emails in a timely manner even if it was late, my texts, my phone calls, and worked hard.

As most women, I was at the lowest and most terrifying point in my adult life. At the end of 28+ year marriage, I needed a competent, professional, and compassionate attorney to help me defend and protect my financial future. Kathleen is amazing. She listen to my concerns, she was interested in the... well being of me and my minor child and most importantly her fee structure helped me afford her services. She was always available via text, email, or phone. She communicated the complicated legal stuff to me in a manner that I understood and felt confident in her competence and ability to represent me in trial. She was a God send! I recommend Kathleen Murphy to anyone but especially women. She understands the fear and emotions associated with starting the next phase of your new and happier life. Thank you Kathleen

Please read all reviews before you hire Kathleen. Consult other attorneys and do your research. Divorce is so difficult and it's important to have a strong advocate by your side! Kathleen does not return calls or emails and she's very difficult to communicate with. She is unprepared and often takes ...your money performing little to no work. Her only concern is money and not the best interests of her clients.
