Murray & Murray Personal Injury Attorneys Building Family owned for nearly a century, with a legacy of knowledge we put to work for you

For nearly a century, Murray & Murray has represented individuals and families whose lives were disrupted by serious injury, negligence, or misconduct. Founded as a family-owned law firm and still guided by that tradition today, Murray & Murray has built its reputation on careful preparation, principled advocacy, and a long-standing commitment to those seeking accountability after harm.

Personal injury law is not simply about claims or settlements. It is about restoring balance when negligence causes real damage, providing clarity during moments of uncertainty, and pursuing outcomes that reflect the full impact of an injury. Murray & Murray approaches every case with the understanding that results matter, but so does the way those results are achieved.

A Nearly 100-Year Family Tradition of Advocacy

Murray & Murray’s longevity is not the product of advertising trends or high-volume legal strategies. It is the result of doing the work the right way, year after year, generation after generation. As a family-owned firm, Murray & Murray has remained intentionally focused, allowing each case to receive the level of attention required to be properly developed.

That history matters when dealing with insurance companies, corporate defendants, and institutional wrongdoers. These entities know which firms are prepared to take a case the distance if necessary. Murray & Murray prepares every matter with trial in mind, whether it ultimately resolves through negotiation or proceeds to litigation. That approach often shapes the trajectory of a claim long before a courtroom is ever entered.

Clients come to Murray & Murray through referrals and word of mouth, often seeking something increasingly rare: a law firm that combines deep experience with accessibility, discipline, and credibility.

Personal Injury Law Focused on Real People

Personal injury law remains the foundation of the firm’s practice. When a serious injury occurs, the consequences extend far beyond immediate medical treatment. Lost income, uncertainty about the future, and pressure from insurance companies can quickly overwhelm individuals and families already under strain.

Murray & Murray represents clients injured in a wide range of incidents, including motor vehicle collisions, truck crashes involving commercial carriers, pedestrian and bicycle injuries, and other roadway-related incidents. These cases frequently involve disputed liability, aggressive insurance tactics, and attempts to shift blame onto injured individuals. Experience and preparation matter at every stage.

The firm’s familiarity with regional traffic patterns, roadway design, and the realities of how crashes occur allows it to approach these cases with practical insight rather than generic assumptions.

Motor Vehicle Collision Representation

Motor vehicle collisions remain one of the leading causes of serious injury. Murray & Murray represents individuals injured in a wide range of crash scenarios, including uninsured driver collisions, hit-and-run crashes, head-on collisions, rear-end impacts, side-impact crashes, rollovers, speeding-related collisions, and crashes caused by stop sign violations.

These cases often require careful reconstruction of events, evaluation of roadway conditions, and analysis of insurance coverage. Whether a collision occurs on a two-lane connector road, a high-traffic corridor, or a controlled intersection, the firm focuses on identifying how negligence occurred and how the resulting harm should be addressed.

Boating and Watercraft Injury Representation

Injuries on the water present unique legal and investigative challenges. Boating crashes and personal watercraft incidents often involve inexperienced operators, unsafe conditions, equipment failures, or rental companies that fail to prioritize safety.

Murray & Murray represents individuals injured in boating crashes and other water-related incidents, including cases involving negligent entrustment, inadequate safety instruction, mechanical failures, and improper maintenance. These matters require prompt investigation and a clear understanding of how liability applies outside traditional roadway settings.

Premises Liability and Unsafe Conditions

Injuries caused by unsafe property conditions are often preventable. Slip and fall incidents, poorly maintained walkways, inadequate lighting, and other hazards can lead to serious harm, particularly for older individuals or those with limited mobility.

Murray & Murray represents clients injured due to dangerous conditions on commercial and residential property. These cases require careful analysis of maintenance practices, notice issues, and property owner responsibilities. Liability is not assumed, but it is pursued when the facts support accountability.

Serious and Catastrophic Injuries

Some injuries permanently alter a person’s life. Traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord damage, amputations, severe burns, and permanent disfigurement often require long-term medical care and carry lasting physical and emotional consequences.

Murray & Murray approaches catastrophic injury cases with the level of preparation they demand. The firm works with medical professionals, life-care planners, and financial experts to understand the full scope of harm, including future treatment needs and lost earning capacity. Insurance companies frequently attempt to minimize these damages. The firm’s role is to ensure the full story is presented and supported.

Nursing Home Neglect and Abuse

Few situations are more distressing than discovering that a loved one has suffered harm in a nursing home or long-term care facility. Families place trust in these institutions to provide safe and dignified care. When neglect or abuse occurs, the consequences can be severe.

Murray & Murray represents victims of nursing home negligence and abuse, including cases involving falls, understaffing, improper supervision, medication errors, and violations of residents’ rights. These cases often reveal systemic failures that place vulnerable individuals at risk and require careful, persistent advocacy.

Experience With Complex Litigation

Not all cases involve a single injury or a single defendant. Murray & Murray also represents individuals and groups in complex litigation matters, including select commercial disputes, professional negligence claims, and class actions involving widespread harm.

These cases require careful strategy, detailed investigation, and a firm prepared to confront well-resourced defendants. Murray & Murray is selective in accepting complex litigation matters, but when the firm commits, it does so with the full weight of its experience and preparation.

A Practice Dedicated to the Injured

Murray & Murray represents injured individuals and families exclusively. The firm does not represent insurance companies or corporate defendants. This focus allows the attorneys to advocate without divided loyalties and to evaluate every case from the perspective of those who have been harmed.

For injury claims, the firm operates on a contingency fee basis. Clients pay no legal fees unless compensation is recovered. Every matter begins with a free consultation focused on understanding the situation and providing clear, honest guidance without pressure.

Contact Murray & Murray

If you or a loved one has been injured due to negligence, Murray & Murray offers a free consultation to discuss your situation and explain how personal injury claims are typically evaluated. There is no obligation and no legal fee unless compensation is recovered.

  • Dennis E. Murray Jr. There’s nothing more gratifying to me than solving a big messy puzzle with lots of pieces. Clients come to us with some of the most difficult problems in life. To be entrusted with representing them and trying to solve whatever they bring to us is an awesome and humbling responsibility. Placing that final piece to reveal the entire picture is what drew me to this profession. When a client trusts me to tell their story and bring them justice, View Profile
  • Charles M. Murray No different than most kids, I dreamt of being a hero as a child—and there was no bigger hero in my life than my father. He often told us stories about the people who were relying on him to resolve their tragedies; I always knew that was the kind of person I wanted to be. After earning my law degree from the University of Dayton in 1991, I joined the firm and began helping those who had been harmed with no place to go for justice. View Profile
  • Margaret M. Murray After graduating from Case Western Reserve University Law School in 1996, I first worked for the Erie County Prosecutor’s Office before joining Murray & Murray. I work to be an advocate for my clients and help them in the best and most meaningful way possible. Presenting a case to the court and having the clients understand just how much we care about their very personal and individual claims is very important to me. View Profile
  • James L. Murray I graduated from Case Western Reserve University Law School and became a lawyer because I like to solve problems and I like people. The relationships with my clients are built through hours of listening and working together. That is what makes my job worthwhile. It is a great thrill when I get to tell clients that we’ve won a case and that they will be able to rebuild or improve their lives as a result of our hard work together. View Profile
  • Florence M. Murray I’ve known I wanted to be a lawyer since I was a young girl, listening to my father talk about cases and trials at the dinner table. Fairness has always been my driving force—knowing that no one ever deserves or wants to be in a situation where they need an attorney. I believe that one of the greatest joys in life is interacting with and helping other people, and it’s this knowledge that I take with me to my practice every day. View Profile
  • Nolan M. Murray When working with clients, I seek to provide guidance and counsel so that each of our clients may reach their best possible result in the most efficient manner. I treat each case and client as unique and strive zealously to advocate for the very real and personal issues facing our clients. At Murray & Murray, providing first-rate counsel is not an ambition, it is an expectation. Prior to joining Murray & Murray, View Profile
  • Kelly E. Murray I entered the legal profession because I was inspired by my family’s legacy of relentlessly pursuing justice for the most vulnerable members of our community. My focus is on providing steadfast support to our clients by leveraging the strength of nearly 100 years of success to ensure that justice is not just an aspiration, but a tangible reality for those we represent. I hope to provide not only practical legal counsel... View Profile
  • Dennis E. Murray Sr. It has been my honor to practice trial litigation on behalf of plaintiffs for more than 50 years. Shortly after graduating from the University of Michigan Law School the Civil Rights Act of 1964 had been enacted and I had the great opportunity to utilize that fulsome statute for civil rights violations, which were endemic. I filed multiple lawsuits against automobile manufacturers, their subsidiaries and some of the unions. View Profile
  • William H. Bartle Working with my clients to prepare for trial and seeing them through the entire process from beginning to the very end gives me as much satisfaction today as it did when I began my career. In my 50 years with Murray & Murray, I’ve seen it all and I’ve done it all, but the part that I love the best and enjoy the most is getting to know my clients. View Profile
  • Donna Jean A. Evans During my years as a mediator at the Erie County Family Court, I worked closely with many attorneys and found myself giving them advice. I knew I could be just as effective as they were if not more—that’s when I knew I had to become a lawyer. Since then, I’ve been involved in many complex litigations for both class action and individual suits, giving my all to each case. It’s why I love my job; it allows me to fight for the victim. View Profile
  • Joseph A. Galea My goal is to treat every client – whether a potential client calling for help, a newly-signed client, or a long-time client – the way I would want my friends and family to be treated if they had to hire an attorney. That goal is present in every case I work on. I want clients to know they’re being cared for – and that I am thinking about their cases even when I’m not in the office, because I know how important that case is. View Profile
