settlement with insurance company

Because of their expertise we were able to settle out of court with a sufficient amount of compensation.

Outstanding!

Attorney David Murray was the only person who was able to ensure that our hurricane insurance claim was addressed and processed. Prior to hiring Attorney Murray, we had received only $500 from our insurance company for spoiled food, despite the fact that we had a video showing our house before and a...fter the hurricane, along with short video clips of real time damage to the living room ceiling that collapsed while the hurricane was actively occurring. As counselors, my husband and I actively assisted community members with ProBono counseling for many months after the hurricane, and so honestly we did not have much energy left to aggressively address our own insurance company's lack of responsiveness. David successfully negotiated a settlement that allowed us to hire contractors to repair the inside of our home and replace the roof. As we always said to David, we could not do what we do, if you did not do what you do. Thank you immensely David. For those of you who are considering hiring an attorney, it is important for you to know that hurricane damage is David's primary area of expertise. I am fairly certain that you would not go to see a general care physician for a heart transplant, or see a primary care physician for a hip replacement, and so why chose a general practice attorney for your hurricane specific claims? David is highly knowledgeable, knows the Florida laws and rules related to insurance loss claims and knows the engineering experts that can effectively and properly assess damage to your home. In addition, his complimentary initial consult will allow you to determine whether or not he can assist you at what probably will be one of the most stressful events you will ever have to face in your home.

Successful Roof Claim

I used David for an insurance claim to replace my roof due to storm damage. He was phenomenal to work with; a great communicator and extremely detail oriented. He thoroughly explained the process from the very beginning and kept me updated as required. I could not ask for anything more from an at...torney.
