Attorney Patrick J. Murphy absolutely helped me out in my time of need. When I met him in his Boston office he put me right at ease and explained the criminal process to me in a way I could easily understand and in a manner that gave me complete confidence. I was facing a criminal wanton destruction of property charge in Barnstable District Court. On the day of the case, he was at the courthouse waiting for me and my wife. Mr. Murphy handled the hearing in a very thorough and professional manner putting us through our testimony and making a powerful argument to the decision maker. My case was thrown out and I could not be happier with the service from Attorney Murphy. I highly recommend him to you as a skilled legal advocate!

Highly Recommended Attorney

Patrick Murphy represented me in my case of underage transportation of alcohol (20 y/o), and he was extremely helpful every step of the way. From when I first told him my story, Patrick was understanding and very reassuring which helped ease the stress of the circumstances. Patrick's agreed to represent me for very reasonable pricing, especially since I had him drive 2 hours to court and 2 hours back to Boston. Most importantly, Patrick's skills in defense during my hearing swayed the Clerk, who was originally inclined to issue a complaint against me, not to issue the complaint and got me off without further arraignment or criminal record whatsoever. Patrick is an ethical, personable, and skillful attorney who is truly dedicated to helping others who are in trouble. I would undoubtedly highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal representation.

I Felt That I was in Good Hands... and I Was!

Mr. Patrick J. Murphy was very quick to respond to my needs. He was always there to answer any questions I had in a timely fashion, and he made me feel very comfortable in an extremely uncomfortable situation. Having Mr. Murphy by my side in the courtroom felt like I was at an advantage. He speaks with confidence. He doesn't stutter or pause while put on the spot. He treated me with respect. He listens. He always greeted me with a warm welcome and never wasted any time.

Thank You so Much!

I was unfortunately involved in a car accident, and it was the first time I had the criminal charge against me, I was very worried, not knowing what to do. When I contacted Mr Murphy, he set up the appointment very quickly, asked me detail, and explained the whole process to me, answered my silly questions patiently and precisely. Finally he used his knowledge and experience to help me win the favorable result.

ABPO in Boston

First off, Pat Murphy resolved my matter quickly and favorably. He negotiated with the prosecution in order solve my matter at arraignment, even convincing the DA to go against the wishes of the accusing officer (who was quite unreasonable) and allow a pretrial probation, leaving me without a criminal record. He's a good and trustworthy man, that I would recommend to anyone seeking representation. As far as fees, we all know legal fees are difficult, but he charged me a fair price that I could come up with, and that was half the number that I received from similarly rated attorneys in the area. My only complaint would be that he is good, but not great, with email, but he will get you the information you need. 5 stars.

Best Experience with a Lawyer!

Attorney Murphy was absolutely excellent from the moment I called and received consultation, to the last time shaking his hand on the courthouse steps. I loved the fact that he showed true interest in my story, who I was, and what I was hoping to achieve while battling through the courts. He aligned his interests with mine and used his years of experience to provide me with the best outcome possible in my particular criminal matter. I truly appreciated his candid and honest feedback on things, and his professional approach. I always felt reassured that he had my best interest in mind and never doubted his expertise. He always made himself available if I ever had questions about anything, and made it a point to always return my calls if I failed to reach him.

I've dealt with quite a few lawyers in my time (unfortunately for me), but this experience reassured me that I clearly picked the wrong lawyers before. ;)

Pat Murphy is A+ in my book!! you won't regret his representation.

Excellent Criminal Attorney!

My husband was wrongly arrested and charged for child endangerment and enticing a minor. Patrick Murphy was the first attorney I called at 8pm and offered to meet with my husband at court the very next morning. These were serious charges that could have resulted in jail time and being placed on the sex offender registry. Patrick is an expert in this area and was wonderful to work with. He was professional and empathic to the seriousness of these charges. He guided us through the process and provided us with the expert legal counsel necessary to get these charges dismissed. We thoroughly trusted his strategy. He made us feel comfortable and less worried about the outcome. Patrick was also affordable. We thought we were going to lose our home and that was not the case with him. We had the best possible outcome. All the charges were dismissed and we can’t thank Patrick enough for his help and support during this difficult time.

Excellent Representation

I was unfortunately accused of trespassing and subsequently arrested by a off-duty police office at a major local hotel. Mr. Patrick Murphy esq, was very sympathetic to my situation, while providing objective legal guidance that kept me focused during the difficult time. I called him on a Saturday afternoon, twice, and was able to schedule an appointment right away. We met to discuss the case the following Monday, during which he was very thorough and patient.

The amazing part was the day of the arraignment. He was clearly respected by those in the court. He was able to have my charge dismissed before arraignment, which was the best possible outcome I could have hoped for. Lastly he was able to have my case being the first case to be discussed before the judge to avoid the long wait in the court.

I am very glad to have him represent me, and I highly recommend his service. Lastly. his fee, as I confirmed with other criminal justice lawyers in the city, was very reasonable.

Competent and Respectful Representation

Patrick Murphy provided first-class representation when I needed his help with a Boston-area shoplifting charge. He quickly grasped my situation and discussed the best course of action to move forward. He clearly had experience in the local court and knew his stuff. He was flexible and accommodating when a court-mix up required another appearance. Finally, on the big day, he delivered exactly what he had promised to do and the case was dismissed. Competent, trustworthy and effective, it was a pleasure working with him. While I never plan to need his services again, I'd highly recommend him to anyone in the future.

Excellent, Professional and Knowledgeable Lawyer!!

I had a criminal complaint for Child Endangerment against me and was so scared of the charges since I had never been involved in a criminal case before. From the first time we met with Patrick Murphy he was amazing at calming the situation, explaining all the aspects of what was going on and preparing the case with me. When we appeared in court, he handled the situation perfectly and there were no charges filed and nothing on my record! I am so grateful for finding Patrick, trusting him with my case and now I continue to have a clean record thanks to him! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Patrick "The Warrior" Murphy

I was in a situation with two females that falsely accused me of a crime. Patrick Defended me like a warrior. During the cross examination of the witness Patrick pulled out tactics I didn't know he had in him. He found holes in the victim's stories and depicted them in a way to make them seem not credible. I sat back with confidence in the courtroom watching Patrick deliver all the facts and securing a victory, a not guilty verdict for me. It was like David and Goliath and Patrick had the sling shot. From start to finish Patrick handled my case with a knowledgeable strategic approach. I can definitely say I was satisfied with his service. Thank You Patrick J. Murphy!

I highly recommend Patrick Murphy esq. to assist you with any legal complications you may face in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. His fees are very reasonable and in my case, I feel that his fees were too low.

I had two default warrants for OUI in Massachusetts, which Attorney Murphy had permanently removed from my record.

As I live out of State now, Mr. Murphy did all the preliminary preparations, investigated my case specifics and contacted the necessary officials so that my case could be settled convenient to my availability to appear in court.

The cases were dismissed and there is absolutely no question as to Mr. Murphy's professionalism, efficiency and client-care. Mr. Murphy responded immediately to all my concerns with an easy to understand and friendly manner.

I plan to use Mr. Murphy as my guardian in all law related matters in the future in Massachusetts, he is an Honest and hardworking Lawyer who has only his clients best interests in mind.

I honestly feel lucky to have met him and feel as though I've not only gained an expert lawyer but a friend as well.

I retained attorney Patrick Murphy for a small but rather puzzling case that has been lurking on my record for a very long time. This was simply a dismissed case that the court lost the docket papers for and the state records showed case infinitely open.

Attorney Patrick Murphy reinvented an ingenious approach that is entirely different from all the others, his honesty and dedication through-out the entire process was incredible.

Mr. Murphy lent me a great listening ear and did not hesitate to take the appropriate action, and with his undeniable people skills and deep connections he made it look like a very simple task, he stealthily zoomed through the court clerical and judicial maze.

Mr. Murphy handled my case very diligently and responded to all my inquiries very quickly and promptly, the whole experience was a clear indication that his love to helping others stands supreme above all else, and he is undeniably one of those rare species of attorneys who derive a great pleasure in doing so.

I highly recommend attorney Patrick Murphy
