Barely better than representing yourself

I wish I could give him negative stars. If you hire him, make sure to call him from different phone numbers. He appears to only answer calls from potential clients, but not current clients. He shows up to court unprepared, and he refuses to communicate with his clients.

Doesn’t Deserve 1 Star

We hired him based on his reviews. We’ll never fall for that again. We knew going in our chance at winning our case was a long shot, but we thought Murray would at least ATTEMPT to represent us. I can’t begin to list all the things he did wrong. Some of the major ones... 1. Delayed filing our cas...e, then filed it incorrectly and had to re-file, which cost us precious weeks 2. Didn’t attempt to serve subpoenas until 2 days before our court date. Then said they were unable to find the individuals. 3. Didn’t copy paperwork until the day of court, and then claimed the copier broke and he didn’t have all our documents 4. The documents he did submit had incorrect information and INCORRECT NAMES 5. Didn’t prepare an opening statement, nor cite any precedent 6. Didn’t have any questions prepared to ask 7. Didn’t call any of the 10 witnesses we had at court that day 8. He had asked me to send him a file of relevant photos which he never presented 9. Tried to convince us to ask for more time (I’m sure it was because he was not prepared.), even though our timeline was running out. 10. He called more than once to ask for information we had already given him (I prepared a large file of relevant info, even gave him the arguments to bring out in court), but he had always misplaced it I could go on for days about his incompetence. He was almost impossible to reach. At one point, we spent over a month trying to contact him by phone, text, email. He only met with us once after the initial visit, and that was because we demanded to meet and find out what to expect in court the next week. I absolutely would not recommend this attorney.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
