Doug Murphy Criminal Defense

Murphy & McKinney Law Firm, P.C. has been outstanding. Doug, Chris, and the entire paralegal team—especially Jackson Garza and Andrea Podlesney—have been incredible resources. Despite their high volume of cases, they consistently communicate every step of the process and clearly explain what to expect. Their reputation in Harris County is extremely well-respected and well-known, which adds a great deal of credibility and confidence. They truly go above and beyond on DWI cases, whether it’s a first or second offense. No matter the complexity of the case, they work relentlessly toward the best possible outcome—and in my experience, that outcome was a dismissal. I highly recommend Murphy & McKinney to anyone needing strong, reliable legal representation.

Doug Murphy and his team (Jackson and Andrea especially) were amazing and did exactly what they said they were going to do. In my case, this meant dismissal of a Felony DWI charge that did not align with the facts of the situation (in a county multiple hours from their Houston office). I hired Murphy & McKinney Law Firm within a week of the arrest and although there was no movement on the case, Andrea was constantly checking with the court behind the scenes to see if there were any changes in my case. Although I was dumbfounded when the DA’s office decided to file charges after 2 1/2yrs of silence, Doug and his team took over immediately and worked every angle until the very best possible outcome was achieved. Jackson and Andrea always answered my calls, treated me with utmost respect, kindness, and genuine attention as if preparing a defense for one of their own family. I knew I was in good hands when Doug commanded the courtroom with his superior knowledge of the law and his extreme professional confidence as well as the time he spent guiding me through the process when I was indicted. I cannot put into words how grateful my family and I are to Doug Murphy & McKinney Law Firm for helping me to get this case dismissed that would have turned my life and career upside down if the results were different. I strongly recommend this group for anyone that needs and values the very best possible outcome in a legal situation. They will tell you up front what they believe is possible and will work the problem until they see it through.

My husband and I were recommended to Murphy and McKinney Law Firm, we worked with Chris McKinney on a Legal Matter that was devastating to our family. Chris treated us with the upmost respect and made us feel at ease instantly. Throughout the process Chris made sure to communicate with us what he needed on our end to make the process go smoothly. Chris was able to get the case dismissed within a timely period and he also got it expunged. If in the future we ever need an attorney we will trust the services Murphy and McKinney Law Firm again.

I highly recommend Chris McKinney and his entire legal team for their outstanding work on my recent DWI case, which was ultimately dismissed. When this process began, I was naturally very concerned and anxious about the potential consequences. However, Chris immediately put my fears at ease. He maintained a professional and confidently reassuring demeanor, which helped me stay confident that I was going to receive the best possible outcome. I am incredibly appreciative of his and his team's hard work, expertise, and dedication throughout the entire case. Their commitment to keeping an open line of communication was particularly invaluable. I was always informed, and they were always available to answer my questions. If you find yourself in a similar situation, you want Chris McKinney in your corner. Thank you, Chris and team, for achieving this successful dismissal!
