Firm Overview
Our Firm Commitment to the Client
Murphy & Associates, LLC, handles serious Auto Accidents, Medical Malpractice, Trucks Accidents and Worker's Compensation cases.
We are trial lawyers who understand that while proper case preparation often yields a pretrial settlement, some cases need to be tried in court and we are prepared and capable in all instances to do so. We handle cases primarily throughout the West Georgia Metropolitan area, including Douglas, Paulding, Carroll and Haralson Counties. We also regularly handle personal injury cases beyond the local region for example, in Fulton, Cobb or Clayton Counties.
We focus on our clients needs, and we have never lost sight of who we represent and why. Our primary goal is the achievement of the best possible result for each client, obtained by truly knowing our clients and understanding their injuries. Our commitment to the client starts from the very first meeting, which one of the attorneys attends, not our support staff. At every stage, we track the progress of our client’s recovery, with personal involvement to protect the client's well-being.
