DO NOT USE KATHLEEN MURPHY FOR YOUR FAMILY LAW CASE

Kathleen Murphy is the worst choice you could make for an attorney. I hired her, paid an unbelievable sum of money and have absolutely nothing, and I mean nothing, to show for it. She is lazy, unfocused and disorganized. When you meet with her she portrays herself as a put together, highly experie...nced, empathetic advocate and nothing could be further from the truth. She could not care less about your personal situation and presents herself in a completely unprofessional manner. It is something we hope no one else will ever experience.

I do not know who made this comment but I have not had any clients leave my firm in the past two years and hire other counsel. Anytime a client comes to us with a concern, we try to address the concerns and although we will not make everyone happy, we do try hard to work with all our clients for the goal of client satisfaction. In all honesty, there are clients who have not been satisfied with our services and yet, in the 26 years I have been practicing, I am happy to say that I continue to receive referrals to my office from prior clients on a regular basis.

Client

Kathleen helped manage an emergency situation of child custody. She was referred by another past client of hers who mentioned Kathleen was a go-getter, a bulldog and didn't back down. She is very educated in law, long years of experience in this specialty and, knows what she needs to do to get the ...job done. She is extremely prepared for court and we were able to win our case given the amount of information we had, evidence we offered, and preparation work that was completed. I would highly recommend Kathleen and her team to help you in any domestic law situation.

Kathleen Murphy attorney at law

I have been working with Kathleen for 21 months so far. She is handling my divorce and all the related issues. It is a very long process with my difficult ex, but we just had our first real day in court and got the result we were after. Kathleen has been up front since the beginning that custody is h...er specialty and we still have that to do, but I trust her completely to protect my daughter and I. She knows how to organize the mountains of paperwork and helps you separate the inevitable emotional responses from what matters in court.

very affordable and capable

Kathleen Murphy represented me for my custody case. She is located right across the street from the court house which was convenient. She charged me a flat fee which ended up being half as much as my son's mothers lawyer and she was 100% better in court than he was ( though I will say he had a diffic...ult woman to defend). Her court room performance was top notch. She knew the right questions and how to ask them. I would highly recommend her but remember that your lawyer can only help you as well as you help them. Document things and keep them orderly and most importantly give your lawyer the things you have documented. If you give her the material she needs she will win.

Unconditionally Recommended

After two years of angst, heartache and six figures of attorney's fees with another lawyer yeilding very dismal result from the court, I finally found Kathleen. She took immediate control of my case and I finally got fair treatment from the Legal System and got my kids back to live with me after my... exwife left the state with them. Stopped her claim for alimony, and got fair distribution of property, protecting my home. There was no issue she didn't know how to conquer, and worked efficiently and with cost effectiveness. I would not recommend anyone else to a man in a very bad divorce case. Consider her one of my best friends forever.
