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.

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.

After 2 years of no interest or visits, my son's father decided he wanted full custody. His attorney played dirty from the start. Kathleen always knew the laws and courtroom policy enough to cut her short. I had my son at 33 years old. So, obviously I had a "party" past. I admitted everything ab...out my past. Unfortunately, the judge had no knowledge of drug recovery. She didn't have a problem with severe drinking. Also, I have been diagnosed with bi-polar disorder and been on my medications and been stable for several years. The judge had no desire to educate herself concerning drug/alcohol addiction, or bi-polar disorder. She actually treated me as if I might go crazy at any moment. Kathleen and her staff made sure they proved medical fact instead of letting the other lawyer to lead the judge to believe falsehoods. She knows the law inside and out. She is forceful in the courtroom. She commands respect, and deserves it in every way. I am convinced I would have lost my son had it not been for Kathleen, Melissa, and Patrick. My case was over nearly a year ago. I had a question tosday. I spoke with Kathleen, and she knew the answer automatically. Above all else, she was concerned with my life and how things have been since the custody battle. I would find it hard to believe that a lawyer would show interest in you after the case is over. I would highly recommend her over and over, and have. I have my son!! I will never be able to thank Kathleen and her staff enough.
