Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.When I think of Mr. Michael K. Murphy words like top-tier, superlative, exemplary, first-class, and second to none immediatley come to mind. While serving overseas, I found myself in need of a divorce attorney. After doing a thoruogh internet search of Divorce Attorneys in Fairfax, VA and reading Mr. Murphy's profile and reviews, I decided he was the type of Attorney that I was seeking. I could not have made a better decision in choosing him to represent me. From the first consultation until the
You usually find yourself in need of a family lawyer for the first time when you are in a crisis and looking for an expert to get your life back on track. I came to Mike under these circumstances and can definitively say that he is exactly the kind of confident, competent and aggressive family law attorney you need in a crisis. He understands the lives and needs of servicemembers and their families and I would say he is one of the best in the business, bar none. He has my highest endorsement.
Divorce is difficult and mine was probably more difficult than most since it involved false allegations by my ex-wife of domestic violence and child abuse. Mike Murphy successfully defended me in the military law courts and shepherded me through the civilian divorce process. He exposed my ex-wife's lies and saved my daughter from a life of manipulation by her mother. My daughter lives safely at home with me now. This is only possible thanks to Mike Murphy and his staff and I'm eternally thankful
I wanted to thank you, Marisa, Sarah and Fariah for all your help. You all showed that you had my needs and desires at the forefront. My girls and I have been able to move on and we are doing great! I also want to thank you for securing 100% of my military retirement after 24 years and 9 months of marriage. I was blessed to have you and your team to represent me, it was worth every penny!
Mike is a professional and puts a lot of effort in fighting for Father’s Rights in Northern Virginia.
I might have given Mike a higher score--except that several years after I worked with him, I found that there were errors and oversights in dealing with my some aspects of my case. These resulted in $32,000 in unanticipated payments which, had things been handled correctly, I would not have been responsible for. As a result, I've suffered considerable hardship. Since I no longer had the resources to pay Mike to sort out the mess his office had allowed to happen, this experience left a bad taste.
I hired the assistance of this law firm in a divorce matter; this lawyer is arrogant and does not care about the client, charges unreasonable amounts of money, does not deliver any results. If you are looking for someone to represent you in any matter, this is not the law-firm you want by your side.
