One of the good guys

Mr. McMurray was my lawyer back in December of 2010 when I was arrested by the SB County Sheriff's department. I won't go into details, but I was in serious trouble and looking at some time behind bars. In short I began to turn my life around I got myself into some local programs to deal with my pe...rsonal problems. Taking Mr. McMurray's advice I worked hard to improve my situation. Mr. McMurray was truthful and helpful through the entire process, including giving me a payment plan option which helped a lot. Because legal trouble can be expensive outside of hiring a lawyer. He went to bat for me with the DA and the Judge because I fulfilled my promise to keep myself on track. I ended up avoiding jail time all together and I haven't looked back since. Alcohol was a part of my story and I've been sober ever since in part due to Mr. McMurray and his work on my behalf. Simply put he was my advocate and he helped me present my case as someone who needed help, got it and then as someone who needed a chance to make good and I can happily say he got me a second chance.

I highly recommend Gregory McMurray

A very good friend of mine referred me to Mr. McMurray. I will be forever grateful. He is an extremely intelligent person. He is diligent in his work and a true advocate for his clients. He takes a personal interest in understanding how you want to be represented. He then brings a wealth of experienc...e and knowledge of the law and manages your case in an expedient way. He is a genuinely nice person and the most professional and ethical attorney I have ever met.

DUI

My husband was looking at a Felony DUI charge.. not sure what Mr. McMurray did but my husband was sentenced to 60 days and no Felony. He also understands money problems and as soon as I informed him of my husbands deportation he extended what i owed him. As a single mom of 3 this was very helpful an...d I thank him for his services, patience, and understanding.

So glad I made the choice to have Greg McMurray handle my divorce

The decision to get a divorce is a very emotional and trying ordeal. Mr. McMurray made this process as easy and smooth as a divorce can go. I had interviewed 2 other divorce attorneys and I instantly felt comfortable with him and his office. He is knowledgable, has a lot of experience and very thor...ough and always looks out for his client's best interest. He is very calm and that reassured me that things would go as smooth as possible. His wonderful staff excels at communicating and making sure the proper paperwork is ready so no time is ever wasted in moving forward. You put a lot of trust in the person that is representing you and with Mr. McMurray I always felt confident in his ability. I would recommend him highly to anyone in need of a "Top Notch Attorney".

Highly professional, effective, honest

Greg McMurray was recommended to us by colleagues/friends at a time of great distress. Prior to knowing him, we had the misfortune of dealing with several less talented and less ethical lawyers in Santa Barbara. Greg stood by our side during many months (including while we were on a sabbatic...al out of the country), grappling with complex family and real estate law issues. Greg’s general legal skills are impressive. Greg is also very knowledgeable of local procedural/judicial issues that attorneys with less training and experience too often overlook or minimize. Greg takes the time to listen to his clients and yet knows how to convey and share with them what he deems at any given time the most appropriate venue and course of action. Succinctly put, Greg’s pragmatic approach to the law is imbued with a profound sense of humanity and an undistracted drive for honesty and fairness. We have utmost respect for Greg's professional values and ethics of responsibility. His fees are very reasonable given the amount of time and effort he and his staff deploy. Greg is assisted by a very gracious team, available to answer many practical and seemingly trivial questions while at the same time knowing when to turn to to Greg himself regarding the substantial legal concerns that require his expertise. In short, we highly recommend Greg McMurray !
