Practice Areas

Medical Malpractice 50%

Medical negligence/malpractice cases encompass all matters where the wrongful act, whether it be an action or an omission, arises out of medical care rendered by a medical provider who is considered by the Florida Medical Malpractice Act.

50%
Car Accident 20%

Automobile, motorcycle and trucking accidents can involve everything from a classic rear end auto crash to incidents involving pedestrians and multi-vehicle accidents. These cases can also include unique issues such as product liability claims.

20%
Wrongful Death 20%

Upon death an applicable survivor(s) can make a claim(s) for the loss of the support, service and affection of the deceased. These claims can occur in the context of any injury case, i.e. medical malpractice, automobile crashes, etc...

20%
Animal and Dog Bites 3%

An owner of an animal is strictly liable for that animal. The Florida legislature passed these strict laws in an effort to effectively make each owner an insurer of their animal. Common complications are coverage disputes and insurance exclusions.

3%
Spinal Cord Injury 3%

A spinal injury can occur from a negligently maintained property, car accident, physician error and/or a litany of other causes. These injuries range from simple herniations to quadriplegia and require a unique approach.

3%
Slip and Fall Accident 2%

These cases can be tricky to prevail in and have more hurdles that you may immediately suspect; common roadblocks are comparative fault and the statutory notice requirements.

2%
Trucking Accident 2%

Trucking accidents are unique due to the specialized regulations, licenses and insurance policies relevant to the field of trucking.

Wonderful Professional and Ethical

Had the privilege to work with Mr. Murphy. From start to finish he displayed nothing but genuineness and professionalism. I would not hesitate to work with him again and recommend him to friends and family if need be.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
