Shaw & Murphy, PLLC
Shaw & Murphy is a general practice law firm focused on providing high-caliber, personal and commercial legal service to clients in the Finger Lakes and Southern Tier of New York.
We are a general practice on purpose: We believe clients benefit from a broad view of the law. We understand, for example, how divorce, custody, visitation and child support impact your business or that buying a house can also impact your estate planning.
Our lawyers and paralegals work together to provide clients with cost-effective solutions. We offer our wide experience in many areas of the law and our varied life experiences as tools for our clients. We then actively listen to clients to identify their needs and collaborate with our clients to find appropriate comprehensive solutions that meets the client’s goals.
Call us or email us to put our experience to work for you.
