Divorce is never easy or pleasant, but working with Bud is both of these things. From the start Bud was kind, caring, attentive and understanding as we talked through my situation. He gave me a clear understanding of my position and the options and possibilities, and throughout he handled my case with care and diligence. He is also a staunch advocate when needed! Furthermore, he is well acquainted with everyone in the court system, and this knowledge and experience is invaluable when navigating courts. I highly recommend him for all family and divorce matters.

I switch to Joseph(Bud) from another lawyer and can’t be happier. My divorce was very complicated and difficult but Bud walked me through it step by step. He is a calming influence and you need that while going through the divorce process. His prices are very reasonable and his expertise second to none. I would strongly recommend him if you are going through a divorce.

I am a recent client of Bud Murphy and thankful that he handled my divorce case. He has extensive experience and knowledge about divorce law in NJ. He negotiated a fair settlement in a firm and diplomatic manner. He also managed to keep the process moving which minimized the time to complete the process. My divorce was settled out of court in approximately 9 months. Even though he has many clients, he was always prompt in responding to any inquiries. Bud has a fine sense of humor which was appreciated during some very stressful situations. I would recommend Bud to anyone who needs a divorce attorney.

After a bad experience with a different law firm Joe was highly recommend from a close friend. Joe took my case and started working on it immediately and brought my case to a close. It took Joe 1 month to do what the other firm couldn't do in 11 months. His cost was more then far and with Joe, after a week with of representing me I felt as Joe was a friend of mine for years. I would highly commend him to everyone. Thanks Joe! (Bud)

Bud Murphy did an exceptional job outlining my options and potential paths forward. He gave me multiple options at varying costs and made sure I was comfortable every step of the way. His advice was always spot on and I felt comfortable every step of the way. Bud helped me through a very difficult time with the utmost professionalism. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing divorce services. I truly hope I never am in a situation where I need him again but if I do, I’ll call him first!

I was referred to go talk to Joseph Murphy by a buddy of mine. I went in for a consult about my divorce and he was extremely nice and professional. He gave me all my options and told me how it was going to work. Bud answered any questions I had and he made the process as quick and painless as he could. He was always available if I had a problem or a question that I needed handled. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that needs an attorney.

After being blindsided with a Divorce from a 20 year marraige, where I was a housewife and Mother. A relative referred me to "Bud". After my consultation, I never looked back. He is very well versed in Family Law, Honest, empathetic and has Professional integrity. Bud is very knowledgable, easily accessible and had my best interests at heart. He stood his ground when Alimony and Child support was discussed. And my divorce was finalized within 8 months. I highly recommend Joseph "Bud" Murphy if you are seeking a Matrimonial lawyer. You would be in very good, and very capable hands.

I made the decision to switch lawyers half way through the divorce process after finding out proper procedures were never followed. This is when I hired Joseph Murphy. A court date for an early settlement was less than two weeks away, so I wasn’t sure if things could be changed at this point, but he was able to have that court date postponed, giving us time to go through all the necessary channels. In addition, I was fearful that I wasn’t going to receive alimony, since my husband, his lawyer and the two court assigned mediators felt I was skilled enough to support myself. I really feel that due to his expertise I’m getting a few years of alimony, which i very much needed. I also wouldn’t have gotten half of the 8 years of my ex’s pension. He knows his job and does it very well. I made the right decision.
