What kinds of cases
do we handle?

All serious state and federal criminal cases.

Murphy Law Office, P.C., handles criminal cases in both state and federal court, at trial and on appeal.  We do not handle any non-criminal cases.  We also do not handle minor matters, such as traffic tickets.  This allows us to stay focused on developments within the field of criminal defense and not be distracted by the demands of other kinds of law. 

A partial list of the kind of cases we have handled in the past includes:
