This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Exceptional Lawyer, best of the best.

Aaron Murphy handled a personal injury case for our son, who was injured. I'm a lawyer, and I knew Mr. Murphy personally and by his strong legal reputation. He was attentive, always knowledgeable about the case, and fought hard for us. We are extremely happy with Aaron and highly recommend him for... any personal injury case. Aaron Murphy is the best of the best, especially for serious injury cases.

Call Aaron. You won't regret it!

I was involved in an automobile accident in December of 2013. While sitting at a stop light on my way to work, I was hit from behind and I was left with a debilitating neck injury and mounting medical bills. The idea of retaining counsel was new to me, as I had never been involved in an accident of ...this nature, and I was completely unaware of how the insurance company (the responsible party's insurance company) would make every attempt they could to not compensate me fairly for my injuries AND even go so far as to try to hold me responsible for the actions of the driver at fault. It was all just very overwhelming and I am so grateful I made the call to Aaron and his team. From the moment I spoke to Aaron, I knew I was in good hands. I no longer had to worry about dealing with the insurance company and all of the stress that went along with it. I was able to go on about my normal routine of working and living, knowing that Aaron and his team would take good care of me. I am so pleased to say that Aaron was able to settle my case and obtain the maximum settlement amount allowed. I am so grateful to Aaron and his team and words truly cannot express how happy I am to know that justice was served. The entire process was smooth and easy for me and I just cannot say thank you enough.

"In addition to loving what he does, one reason Aaron is one of the best personal injury attorneys in Kentucky is because he's also smarter than most of the insurance companies he does battle with on a daily basis. Aaron isn't afraid to out-work the opposition, and he's got an amazing ability to out-think them, too. I endorse Aaron Murphy with high praise. Hire with confidence."
