Murphy Legal’s founder, attorney Paul Murphy has extensive experience representing clients in complex white collar criminal cases and grand jury investigations as well as regulatory enforcement actions by federal agencies such as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Mr. Murphy has a deep understanding of what drives government enforcement as a result of his 14 years as a federal prosecutor. This valuable insight combined with his broad experience as a defense attorney at some of the most prestigious litigation firms in the country allows him to think strategically at the outset of every matter about a client’s needs and the best path to achieving them.
Mr. Murphy’s prior experience includes representing officers and directors, business owners, hedge fund managers and other professionals in a variety of federal criminal matters, and he is keenly aware of the fact that his clients always are better off not being charged with a crime or subject to enforcement action in the first instance. When the government does proceed, Mr. Murphy’s training and decades of trial and courtroom experience allow him to be a fearless adversary at trial.
