Superior legal services with a personal touch

We hired Thomas Murphy to oversee the purchase of our first home. He was very detail oriented in our initial consultation. He thoroughly reviewed all the documents related to our purchase both prior to hiring him through closing. I really appreciated the checklist he sent after our initial consult...ation. It included all the dates that we needed to be aware of and I referred back to it frequently. During this stressful period, Thomas was quick to respond to all of our inquiries. Be it phone call or email he responded after office hours and on weekends which allowed us to make more informed decisions when we had tight deadlines. We counted on and trusted his advice and were very happy with the results. We couldn't have made a better decision than to hire Thomas. He really eased the strain related to buying a home and was a pleasure to work with. He offered very fair rates for the service he provided. We will be returning to him for our other legal needs and couldn't recommend him more highly.

Excellent Service!! They helped and cared about our needs like no other place would!!

Thom helped us with our bankruptcy process. He is very realiable, fast response and very easy to work with. I would recomend his/their service to any one looking for help. I talked to many lawyers and most of them seem to be interested about the payment but not the problem. They treated us with resp...ect and understood our situation without putting the money as priority. Thank you for your BIG HELP THOM!!

Attorney for Home Purchase - Highly Recommend!

I would highly recommend Tom for anyone looking to buy a home. He was a great source of knowledge and clearly explained everything to me in an understandable manner, as this was my first home purchase. He was super detailed and was great at communication, he always answered emails and phone calls i...n a timely manner. I felt like he actually cared about representing my best interests in the negotiation of the home purchase, and went above and beyond to get us what we needed. I know I will use him again for any future legal matters that I may have and I highly recommend him to anyone who needs an attorney.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
