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.

Traffic changes recommended in downtown Carrollton.

March 11, 2008 - The Carrollton City Council was presented an analysis of traffic in downtown Carrollton and Bankhead Highway on Monday March 10, 2008. The analyst, Harris Robinson, reported that about 85 percent of the commuters on Bankhead Highway approaching the downtown Square follow the speed limit of 25-30 mph. Robinson is recommending a "road diet" turning the currently three- or four-lane road into a two-way, with a universal turning lane to make the area more pedestrian-friendly. Hopefully, this change will increase the viability in this commercial area.

Two estimates were given to restructure the roadway for the proposed "road diet". It was estimated by Coleman that repainting the street lines would cost $90,000.00, whereas re-paving the road in several areas, which is recommended by the consultant, would cost more than $800,000.00. The City Council will approach local businesses about their opinions.
