Best Attorney in his Specialty

I am a retired insurance defense,manager and director for a world class insurance company. My wife and I sustained significant tile lift to our tile roof and other water damage from Hurricane Irma. My wife had a significant disability and I knew I needed the very best attorney that specialized in su...ing insurance companies for property loss. Our insurance company had not found any damage that exceeded our deductible After researching and talking to attorneys I was referred to David Murray. Mr Murray took my call and after discussion about my claim and needs regarding my family situation he accepted our case and after that he and his staff diligently worked with me thru the process of filing the complaint, managing all discovery, obtaining a trial date and preparing for mediation. The case settled to my complete satisfaction and exceeded my expectations. I can say without equivocation that Mr. Murray is one of the top and best lawyers in his specialty. I would and I am recommending him to anyone in the entire state of Florida.

Very Competent Lawyer

We suffered significant damage to our roof as a result of Hurricane Irma. Our insurance company refused to pay our claim although it was legitimate. Mr. Murray hired a very competent engineer to validate our claim of damage. The insurance company even when presented with the engineer’s report refu...sed to pay our claim. Mr. Murray very successfully represented us in our claim against the insurance company. He is very thorough and we highly recommend him.

Wonderful to Work with...

The team at Danahy & Murray are professional, friendly, knowledgeable, efficient, effective and caring people who handled my denied homeowners' insurance claim with compassion and expediency. It was a stress-free process that restored me well above my initial expectation. David Murray in particular w...as a pure pleasure to work with. He helped me feel confident in moving forward with my lawsuit when I thought there was no recourse for me. He explained everything thoroughly so I knew what to expect. He made sure I understood the process and did not claim anything he wasn't sure of. Even when he couldn't help my sister because of jurisdiction, he gave me great advice for her so that she could seek the proper help in her city. After he won my case, if I have questions regarding matters related to my lawsuit, his office continues to be very helpful and responsive. I highly recommend David Murray and his law firm.
