David Cabel Murray

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.

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.

David represented me in claim against a Florida property damage carrier. I found him to be knowledgeable and on top the claim. He has a wealth of experience in this area and it was apparent from the moment suit was instituted. As a practicing trial attorney I am happy I relied on David instead of rep...resenting myself.

I was filing a claim for my damaged roof with my insurer when the adjuster said some things that threw me off. David Murray was recommended to me as an expert in these matters and he quickly agreed to help. He sat in on a call with the adjuster and advised me. Then he spotted some language in the wor...k authorization agreement the insurer sent us that could have potentially left me liable for all repairs. He sent back changes that we felt were reasonable. The insurer didn’t respond to our concerns or proposed changes. Then they ended up denying my claim for reasons that were never made clear to us. David advised me throughout this stressful period and briefed me throughout the process. We had to go to mediation but David had already prepared a lawsuit. During mediation, David was far more prepared than the insurance company and thoroughly laid out our position. The insurer quickly capitulated and offered to settle. David consulted with me during the session and got the insurer to agree to a few more conditions. I never thought we could get the matter resolved so quickly and without sacrificing anything. The settlement allowed me to arrange to have my roof replaced with better materials and without having to rely on the insurer’s recommended contractors. My house will be safer for several hurricane seasons to come. I can’t imagine what could have happened if David hadn’t been there to advise me. Everything went wrong when I had a lawyer, so imagine how badly it could have gone if I didn’t have legal representation to back me up. My nightmare is that the insurer could have hired a contractor and, under the original agreement, potentially left me on the hook for tens of thousands in bills. David was knowledgeable, accessible and aggressive in representing me and the outcome is better than anything I could have hoped for. If you need to file a claim for your roof, ask David to represent you. Don’t trust the insurance company. I have never been happier to pay a legal bill. The peace of mind was worth it.
