I help people with Social Security disability problems and SSI claims. I meet face to face with all my clients (unless they prefer not to meet) and also prepare them for court in person. Your file will not be handed off to someone you've never met when it is time to go to court.

Great Lawyer

Peter Murphy , when he took on my case he did not waste time he filed my appeal and went above and beyond for the next year to get all the information needed for the case. On the day of the case he gave the Judge all the information he asked for and he presented my case very professionally and this i...s why my case was won. I would recommend Peter to anyone who has a SSI disability .

Peter Murphy

If you need assistance with a SSA disability claim I highly recommended Peter Murphy to represent you. His extensive knowledge of the law is remarkable. He is extremely professional and quick witted. Mr. Murphy truly cares about his clients. He has done a wonderful job with both of my cases. No other... attorney would take on the challenges he will and win!

"Pete and I worked together 20 years ago when we were fledgling attorneys, and I am proud to call him a friend all these years later. He exhibited then and continues to exhibit a passion for advocacy, and a true compassion for his clients. He has a real knowledge of the disability program and a creative approach to building the strongest claim possible. Even after all these years, I still call him for case advice from time to time, and I greatly value his suggestions."
