Great attorney

When a TV advertising attorney dropped us we were frantic. We immediately contacted Scott Murray at Murray Guari Trial Attorneys. Scott immediately said let me see how I can help. He and is staff were always available through the entire process. Weekends, evenings and whenever, they answered cal...ls and e-mails throughout the process. Scott guided us through every step of the way so we were always informed of what was happening with our case. I can truly say Scott is a decent, honest attorney who works hard to get a fair resolution for his clients. We are very happy we chose him to represent us and highly recommend him for your legal needs.

Outstanding Attorney and Law Firm

My wife was involved in a serious motor vehicle accident. As a result, she had to have cervical surgery. We hired the Law Firm of Murray & Guari to represent us. Mr. Scott Murray was our attorney. From the moment he took our case, he treated us with dignity and respect. His legal knowledge and abilit...y is just superb. My Murray was available to us all hours of the day or night and any day that we needed him. We were constantly updated on the case. We felt so comfortable having Mr. Murray as our attorney. We could tell that he really cared about us not just as clients but as regular people. By the end of the case, we felt as if Mr. Murray and his entire staff were part of our family. Mr. Murray brought this case to a very successful conclusion due to his expertise. We consider ourselves very fortunate to have had Mr. Murray as our attorney. He is an asset to the law profession. Hopefully, we will never be in a situation such as we were again. But, if we are, Scott Murray is the only attorney that we would ever use.

Satisfied Customer

Mr. Murray and his staff helped me when I was rear ended in 2013. Scott was knowledgeable and patient while speaking with me when I had my accident. When I had questions, even on weekends, I was able to reach him on his cell phone and he eagerly responded to my concerns. Throughout the almost year... and a half process, I was kept abreast of all correspondence to all parties involved with my case. Upon the settlement of my case, Scott and his staff were just as friendly and courteous on the last day as they were on the first. He is a top rated attorney based on his treatment of my needs. Thank You.

Murray & Guari Trial Attorneys - Integrity, Sincerity, and Professionalism

In December 2012 our family was headed home to Virginia from a Christmas vacation spent in Florida with our son's grandparents when we were involved in a serious car accident near Daytona Beach. A reckless driver struck our car causing it to roll and land on its roof. Our son received life threatenin...g injuries. He was transported unconscious to the hospital and remained in a coma for a week suffering from a severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). Doctors told us that our son may very well die and if he survived he may have permanent brain damage. Our family received a miracle from God and our son survived astonishing the medical staff. A short time later, he was transferred to Washington, DC via a medical flight. He spent many months in rehabilitation and eventually was able to complete his Senior year of high school through homebound instruction. He even transitioned back to attending school in his last month. He was able to graduate with his high school class in June 2013. He received his diploma to a huge round of applause from his peers and teachers. Our son is currently attending college while his brain continues to recover. While our story seems to be headed to a happy ending we would never have made it to this point without Scott C. Murray and his legal team. While my son was laying in a coma and I should have been concentrating on him and my other children, we were already having to battle health and auto insurance companies and hospital administrators. Bills were piling up for medical care, flights, hotels, food, and clothing. A relative recommended Scott C. Murray and thankfully we retained him in that first week. He personally came to the hospital in Daytona Beach and immediately took control of the situation allowing us to just care and pray for our son and other children. He was very comforting in his sincere demeanor and I was extremely confident in his abilities. We quickly felt some stress relief as he laid out a plan of action to assure my son received the medical best care and that the negligent party was held responsible. Over the past year and half Scott C. Murray has continued to sort out every concern with the various insurance companies and hospitals. He even visited us in person in Virginia! My son got the restitution he deserved to pay for his medical care and all costs associated with this terrible event. Murray & Guari have great integrity, sincerity, and professionalism and my family and I are proud and thankful to have had them as our attorneys. I would highly recommend them!
