Get Away!

He refused to look at my case until months after key hearings. Was never prepared or had key documents showing I'd been cleared. Refused to call out witness intimidation or deceptions by others. Let them make up whatever they wanted until I made a video showing they were lying about everything. E...ven then he let them make up more without sticking up for me -- and I have over 40 pieces of evidence showing they were lying about everything. It was ridiculous. Mr Murphy even let them lie about their financials in court when I have evidence showing they left out a raise and thousands in bonuses. He can make deals, but not advocate for his clients or read the details of a case. I was not represented and when new orders were suggested, he allowed them without argument and didn't give me a copy of the new orders. He even told me orders had been removed when they hadn't. Very dangerous to have this man as your attorney.

DO NOT HIRE. WARNING

Michael Murphy is the worst attorney. If you are hiring for a criminal case, Mike will do no research to investigate your innocence. He will show up to your court hearing and take whatever plea deal the prosecution will give. I hired Mike for my case, day before my court hearing I called to see ...if I needed to bring anything (because he never called) and he didn't even know my last name or what the charges were for, but he had no problem taking my $5000 up front. When we got to court he pulled me aside and told me take the plea and this was one day prior not even knowing what I was charged with. I had to accompany a friend to court years later and saw Mike again in court representing clients and he took all plea deals that were giving to his clients. Must be pretty sweet taking money from people and not actually doing legal work, just making appearances. I wish there was a lower rating than 1 star.
