Our Firm and Our Commitment
Maya Murphy has offices located in New York, NY and Westport, CT. Most of our attorneys are licensed to practice in multiple states including New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey. All of our attorneys have experience at both the state and federal levels. Today, our firm can look with pride at the roster of clients ranging from individuals, entrepreneurs, and families, to privately-owned businesses, major financial institutions, and multinational corporations. Whether it is a high stakes divorce, an employment dispute, or a family estate plan, the attorneys at Maya Murphy are here to serve your needs.
Here at Maya Murphy, we strive to provide large firm service, experience, and ability, but with small firm communication, attention, and accountability. Our attorneys will not accept a matter unless they are certain that we, as a firm, can service it efficiently and effectively. Every client is important at Maya Murphy and is treated accordingly. This means zealous representation, consistent communication, and fair billing.
Large Firm Experience, Small Firm Client Attention
When we meet potential clients for the first time, potential conflicts of interest are promptly disclosed and frankly discussed by our attorneys. Matters are staffed at levels consistent with our goals of quality and economy. We do not assign two lawyers to do the job of one, and we do not generate unnecessary paperwork. A partner is assigned to supervise each client’s file and is available to confer with that client at any time regarding its handling. Our partners each supervise a set of attorneys and cases to ensure the best outcome for every client.
Most of our engagements are preceded by an attorney conference at which the client’s needs are carefully identified. Realistic goals and fees for our representation are discussed and determined. The nature of our undertaking is set forth in a retainer agreement, which contains an explanation of your lawyer's billing rates and charges. The partner assigned to the file will ensure that the client’s matter is promptly handled, appropriately staffed, and fairly billed. If you ever have a question or a concern about your case or billing procedures, our partners and attorneys are always on call.
Our attorneys make every effort to keep our clients informed as to the status of their case and to promptly return phone calls and emails. Clients are encouraged to maintain close contact with their attorneys through candid and constructive interchange of ideas and information. We also believe that intelligent use of technology allows us to provide better service and can significantly reduce our clients’ legal expenses. Not only does efficient use of technology lower our clients’ bills, but it also allows our attorneys to be available when you need them most.
Our Legal Experience
Our lawyers work primarily in New York, NY and Westport, CT, but have litigated in federal and state courts and all arbitration tribunals, as well as before various administrative, regulatory and self-regulatory bodies throughout the United States. At Maya Murphy, we practice in many areas of the law including divorce, employment, personal injury, criminal, and tax law. Our attorneys have been recognized for their exceptional work product in Super Lawyers Magazine. While all of our attorneys are gifted, two specifically have been named to the Super Lawyers rising stars list. Attorney H. Daniel Murphy has been recognized as a rising star two straight years in the field of divorce law, and Attorney Susan Maya has been recognized as a rising star in the field of estate planning and tax law.
H. Daniel Murphy, attorney and partner, knows that divorce is difficult, both legally and on a family level. He strives to make divorce a little easier, through efficiency, excellent communication, and zealous advocacy for his clients’ goals. Attorney Murphy has the experience, know-how, and skills to resolve your divorce as quickly and cleanly as possible. Meanwhile, Susan Maya will use the skills that helped her become a “Super Lawyer” to plan out your estate. Attorney Maya knows that clients want peace of mind for the future, and assurance that their families will be properly cared for. Let Attorney Maya plan your estate for the best tax treatment and most beneficial outcome for your heirs.
We recognize that a law firm is only as strong as each of its parts. Since the most valuable asset of Maya Law is its skilled hard-working attorneys, we invite you to meet with us. Please contact either our New York, NY or Westport, CT office for an appointment. On most occasions, we offer free initial consultations to learn more about your case, and so you can decide if our firm is the right fit for your needs. If you have any employment, education, divorce, personal injury, or criminal law matters, or if you desire estate planning with artfully crafted trusts and tax avoidance, please call today at 203-221-3100.
