I can't say enough good things about Garrett Murphy. After my car accident, I was overwhelmed, confused, and filled with questionssome of them probably pretty chaotic. But Garrett never once made me feel dumb or dismissed. He answered everything with patience, clarity, and genuine care.
What stood out most was how he guided me, not just legally, but emotionally. He made suggestions without pressure, always respected my moral compass, and helped me feel seennot like just another case number. He stayed grounded and reassuring through it all.

So grateful to Garrett and his team for handling my father's POA documents. Understanding we were in a time crunch, Garrett came thru quickly and had all of it wrapped up faster than I hoped for. He and his team are kind and understanding, showed great warmth and empathy. I highly recommend his firm. They handled our situation with grace, compassion and professional efficiency.
