G. Edward Murphy

Ed and his team have demonstrated that they are the dominate legal council in the Peoria area. Ed can be trusted to deliver and defend you for the most difficult cases. My ex wife filed a HIPPA case against my wife to gain access to medical records to ecploit my wife and restrict parenting time and... Ed worked closely with us to settle outside of court. Friday before the hearing my ex wife declined any settlement and the hearing was set for Monday. Eds team worked through the weekend and developed a solid case with legal precedence and solidly one the case protecting my wife's legal rights to protect her personal medical records. I fully trust Ed and his team and recommend his team even for the the most difficult cases.

I hired Mr. Murphy for my divorce last year. The consultation was helpful, and I was given realistic expectations as to what to expect during the process. My divorce was quite straightforward, the ex and I had little in terms of assets to divide, and we had already reached a tentative agreement regar...ding the living arrangements for our son. Given the relative simplicity of the situation, the case was able to get resolved quickly and efficiently. I felt the fee's assessed in my case were accurate, and no billed time was wasted on the law office's end. Mr. Murphy was able to give good advice in terms of shaping the settlement to meet the original expectations, whilst providing me protections in the agreement I had not thought to consider. There was outside-the-box thinking used regarding the division of liabilities the ex and I had accrued that gave me a good result going forward in life. There were a few surprises from the other side of the case regarding custody as we neared the court date. Mr. Murphy and his associates were able to give me good advice to remain calm, and to provide other strategies in the event that adjustments would need to be made, so my time with with my son would be protected. Overall, I was pleased with the efficiency and efficacy of Mr. Murphy and his team. I got an adequate amount of time with my son in the parenting agreement, and I got the good result I was hoping for when the divorce had concluded. If I have any future legal needs regarding the situation, I will not hesitate to hire Mr. Murphy again.

Ed Murphy was recommended to me by a close friend about 4 years ago. Since that time, he has helped me with several cases, one of recent which resulted in successfully obtaining more visitation time with my children. I found not only that his knowledge of family law was exceptional, but also being ...very strategic and forward thinking. Ed is very honest and upfront about your case, and doesn’t provide false hope. His team is highly skilled, efficient and customer focused. I place Ed Murphy in high regards and will continue to recommend him.

I was referred to Ed by a friend who had nothing but good things to say. I retained him for the first time( not the last) in 2003 and he has handled a number of issues for me since then, involving child visitation and custody. I have been impressed by the prompt, professional manner in which Ed and ...the team take care of business, and I would recommend them to anyone looking for an attorney who has an excellent "word of mouth" reputation.

I was referred to Ed almost 8 years ago after experiencing little movement in my custody case. I immediately knew I made the right choice in hiring Ed as he accomplished more in one month than my previous attorney did in one year. Throughout the life of my case, Ed and his team aggressively advocat...ed for me as I fought to be a part of my daughter’s life. Ed’s knowledge regarding the complexities and intricacies of family law is exceptional. He outlined a clear and concise strategic legal plan for my case, and always seemed to be a step, or two, ahead of the opposing counsel. Ed was always honest with me and never offered me false hope or empty promises. I took comfort in knowing that Ed always had a contingency plan and legal response for every decision made by the presiding judge, and every motion filed by opposing counsel. With Ed’s dedication and insight, I was ultimately awarded full custody of my daughter. Clearly, this outcome speaks volumes regarding Ed’s abilities as an attorney. If integrity, honesty, tenacity, and professional commitment are qualities you are searching for in an attorney, look no further than Ed Murphy.
