Trust is the key

Mr Garner and his staff demonstrated trust and integrity from our first meeting in February 2015. I was always treated with respect and every question was answered. I highly recommend Mr Garner and would retain him again.

Thank you, Pamela. We always try to treat people the way we would want to be treated ourselves. It is very rewarding for us to be able to assist good folks like you tell their story and guide them down the long, winding road that leads to justice.

First class lawyer

Mr Garner and staff was the best . Professional, timely, and honest is the three words to me that best describe him. His staff was always helpful . If you need a lawyer Garner is the one to get the job done

Thank you, Shane. We are blessed to have a great staff with many years of experience in helping folks with serious injuries and disabilities. We know the legal process can be slow, but we want to try to make sure we move things along in a timely fashion. We also want to be honest with you about our assessment of your case and the evidence the decision maker will be reviewing to make sure you know the strengths and weaknesses. No case is "perfect," but if we accepted your case you can rest assured we believe it has merit and will help develop the evidence to tell your story in a compelling manner. Helping good folks like you get justice is very rewarding.

Great mind humble heart

I have known Mr. Garner for about 40 yrs. and can without reservation recommend him. After several surgeries and denial of my social security disability I had no choice but to retain an attorney. Mr. Garner handled my case very professionally and my benefits were approved. I believe him to be a man o...f not only highest ethical standards but also a very compassionate Christian man. I can think of absolutely no reason if your case is legitimate that Mr. Garner could not do the same for you.

Thank you so much Garry. It means a lot to us when the people who know us best choose us to represent them. We screen our cases carefully and only represent the folks whose cases have merit. The judges know we screen our cases and I think that gives us an edge on the "close cases." When we take a case, you can be certain be believe in the cause and we will fight hard to get justice for you. It is so very rewarding to help deserving clients win their cases. Hard-working people like you, who had rather be working but just are not able to anymore, are the folks for which the Social Security disability system was designed to protect and provide benefits.

No more TV attorneys!

My experience with Murphy and Garner was nothing short of amazing and relieving! I had originally went with one of those television attorneys that make big promises for all of your pain and suffering. Unfortunately, after months of waiting and a lot of tedious paperwork, those promises dwindled whe...n my case needed more effort. I decided to call Murphy and Garner and I'm glad that I did. Stephen Garner handled my case. He patiently listened to my grievances and when it was time to fight for me he went above and beyond what I had expected! Not only was I compensated, but` it was fair! Murphy and Garner handled my case with dignity and integrity and they proved that they are not only honest but very knowledgeable in their field. If you want someone that will take the time to listen to your concerns and that is trustworthy, I would highly recommend Murphy and Garner. If I ever need help again, Murphy and Garner will be my first stop.

Thank you, T. We are glad you called us too! Unfortunately, many of the TV lawyers are more concerned about the volume of cases they handle rather than getting fair value of their clients' cases. Over the last 33 years of practice, I have heard many horror stories about people who hired the lawyers with the slick commercials on TV and were disappointed with the lack of personal service and attention given to their cases. Jingles and catchy slogans don't win cases. When people are looking for a lawyer, I recommend they do some research. Ask your friends. Check out their reviews online. See what their reputation is in the legal community by going to their web site and checking for awards and honors that have been bestowed on them by their peers. Call around and talk to several lawyers. Interview them - because they will be working for YOU! Lawyers who will listen to you, work hard for you and will use their experience and expertise to fight for a just and fair resolution of your case are the ones you should hire - not the snake oil salesmen screaming and making big promises over the airwaves.
