Warning

Our family consulted with him and one meber becane his client. He was slow and ill-informed. A simple divorce dragged on forever. He billed and billed and billed. He ended up turning family members against one another and both lied and swore. He was very polished at first. Once he had the retainer, e...verything changed. He never accomplished the divorce and we eventuslly went to another lawyer. Mr. Murphy would not return the what we felt was the unused portion of the retainer. Save yourself, run.

Simply Brilliant

Dan Murphy provided counsel to me for my divorce. He has also represented several friends based on my referral. Dan was attentive, smart and kind. He was also sensitive to my monetary restrictions. Further, his legal assistant Angela Parker was amazing. She helped me work through the issues of m...y case. What a great team. I am grateful to both Dan and Angie for their work ethic and the peaceful outcome to what started as a very tense matter.

Really Terrible - Run Away

I hired Dan Murphy to help me with my divorce. It was a really awful time and I really needed a competent legal advocate. Dan told me that he would save me money by having his paralegal, Angie, do most of the work, yet, more often than not it seemed that I met with them both at the same time, and w...as billed by both of them for dealing with the same matters. It was a double whammy. I often had to repeat myself, which resulted in even more billing. Dan kept me in the dark about the process and never told me what his game plan was. In my opinion, they had to be either incompetent or acting in bad faith. The bills kept coming with, again, in my opinion, absolutely no real progress. I finally concluded that Dan and Angie weren't actually working for me. Sadly, I didn't do my homework before hiring Dan.
