Testimonials

I don’t have any medical bills, I’m receiving revenue for my pain and suffering, and I’m very appreciative. I am truly satisfied with the results of my case.
"The best part about having James Murphy as my workers' compensationlawyer is that I have someone to speak for me..."
The initial phone call made me feel as though they really cared. They made us feel like a number, and Murphy & Associates didn't. My wife and I have never gone through something like this before and accidents can be devastating to a family because of loss of income, pain and suffering.
Murphy & Associates made my experience fast and easy, and got the job done.
Murphy & Associates Car Accident Law firm is professional, efficient, and a pleasant experience doing business with.
I was involved in a rear-end collision while stopped at a red light. Mr. Murphy and his staff guided me through this long process from obtaining medical treatment to settling with the other party's insurance company.

Title: New Year’s Eve: Law Enforcement Warns Don’t Drink & Drive

Many people will go out and celebrate with family and friends to bring in the New Year. Local law enforcement wants to remind everyone of the legal drinking age and that drinking and driving do not mix. Patrol will be increased over the holiday time period which will begin on Thursday at 6pm and end at midnight on January 3, 2010. Many holiday accidents are attributed to alcohol and impaired drivers. Unfortunately, those who would not normally take a chance on drinking then driving often do during this celebration season.

According to Georgia Department of Public Safety, estimates there will be as many as 16 fatalities and over two thousand accidents statewide. Cpl Greg Beck of the Floyd County Police Department wants to remind Georgians the legal drinking age is 21 and the legal blood alcohol level can not exceed 0.08 or for a commercial driver the blood alcohol level is not to exceed 0.04. The Rome Police DUI Task Force, suggests for those going out to celebrate to have a designated driver who will remain alcohol free for the night.

Georgia State Patrol encourages everyone to call 911 or *477 from a cell phone if you suspect or believe someone is driving while intoxicated.
