Amazing Consumer Advocate

Attorney Robert Murphy did an amazing and quick job saving me from myself after I had made a purchase I should not have. After realizing my mistake, I emailed many attorneys. Mr. Murphy responded quickly and was the only attorney who responded to my pleas for help. After I sent him back up paperwork ...he very quickly wrote an appropriately strong letter to the seller and I was let out of my deal. Within 2 days after contacting him, it was all over. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is extremely professional and to the point. He does not waste time on chit chat so I encourage anyone who contacts him to be direct, have all paperwork ready to scan or deliver to him and have questions ready. He moves quickly to resolve issues. On another note I work for a large law firm and I have not met an attorney of his caliber in a long time. If you have a consumer related issue, I would definitely contact him for a fast evaluation.

Excellent Attorney!

I cannot say enough what a great experience it was contacting attorney Murphy and having him represent me. He was professional, honest and to the point, he pulls no punches and doesn't beat around the bush. I have had a couple of extremely worrying and unnerving legal issues that he solved beyond w...hat I could imagine. If you are looking for an attorney to take on your case, and do everything he can to resolve it, you found the right one. I very highly recommend him. He is an advocate for the consumer and is highly respected in his field.

Mr. Murphy Goes Above and Beyond. I Highly Recommend!

Mr. Murphy spent more than 30 minutes with me, a prospective client, and educated me on debt collectors. He didn't have to spend so much time doing so, but this good man did. And I commend him. I was able to write the necessary letters to credit-reporting agencies, thanks to Mr. Murphy's excellent ad...vice. I highly recommend him and his legal services.

Outstanding attorney

After being bullied by collectors during the holidays and loosing much sleep, Mr. Murphy consulted with me on numerous occasions in helping me to resolve the issue. He was more than generous with his spot on advice and extremely timely in his response to all of my emails. This is the first experience... I have had with an attorney that is sincere in trying to genuinely help his clients rather than taking full financial advantage of them ! I highly recommend Mr. Murphy!

"Robert is a blue chip consumer protection attorney, especially in the field of auto fraud. I practice consumer law as well and have utilized Robert’s vast knowledge in this area in representing my own clients. Not many lawyers would take time out of their day to help a competitor, but Robert is passionate about his practice area and has done just that for me. He is very active and well regarded in our community. I highly reccomend Robert."
