When it comes to your future and your children you look for quality and experience and with Megan you will get that. I found cheaper options but in this industry and with your children you don’t want cheap, you want GOOD. While each case is different you can feel confident that Megan is dependable and will be there when needed, and with her education will get you the best result possible. She is organized in the court room and will leave you feeling prepared. She will answer your question even if it’s for the 100th time. While most of us are struggling to pay lawyer bills this is one that impacts my budget but I do not complain because I know they I’m in good hands. I’d recommend her to anyone!!! She is honest and truly good at what she does. She understands the law and it’s interpretation well. While I would prefer to keep her knowledge for myself to make it easier to get on her calendar (selfish I know ;) )I have to acknowledge her and Erika.

Ginger and her supporting staff is the real deal. She responds, comforts you and makes sure you know she's working on the case. Ginger is very particular and provides a wonderful experience and reassures that you and your children are number 1. Seeing her in action was quite the shock and awe moment I needed to see to help me feel 100% confident in my case (against a dirty attorney in the Rock County area). Great job Ginger and thank you for everything you've done for me and my family!

We are so happy we hired Megan for our custody case. She was well prepared, organized, and openly communicated what to expect. Megan is very informed and knowledgeable regarding the law and showed that during our trial. Whenever we had a question or clarification she was straight to the point and made sure we knew all our options. We would highly recommend Megan to potential future clients.

When I needed to get custody of my daughter quickly I was referred to Ginger at Your Family Law Center. She met with my wife and I promptly to discuss the situation we found our daughter in. Not only was she able to find information about my ex and her husband to properly paint the picture of horror my daughter was living in. But with her incredible work we were granted exactly what we needed to provide our daughter with a more stable and healthier home environment. I would highly recommend Ginger, so much so that I have already referred a family member to her services. Ginger was kind and understanding with my ex's situation but demanded no nonsense in the matter of our daughter's safety.

My lawyer was awesome! She did such an professional job and she was more than enough fair with the other party. She worked at a high level of professionalism and she tried to settle out of court so my bill would not be so high. She kept in contact with me during the process and cares about her clients.

Ginger L. Murray helped us to adopt our two oldest adult grandchildren and get legal custody of our minor Grandson. Her knowledge of the law and court system as well as her ability to work with other attorneys was invaluable. We chose her because we had dealt with her before in regards to Family law matters. The whole legal process lasted just 8 months. We were aware of every possible issue throughout. Communication was fast, accurate and professional with all parties involved. The overall resulting benefits far exceeded the costs. I highly recommend Ginger Murray and her law firm to anyone needing legal counsel in these areas.

We hired Ginger to represent us in a complicated, frustrating and emotional case regarding a family matter after she was referred to us. We are very appreciative for everything Ginger has done for our family. Each time the other party took us to court (yes there have been several) not only was Ginger able to have everything dismissed but she also was able to have an order approved for the individual to pay for our attorney fees, each time. The other thing that I have appreciated about working with Ginger is that she's direct and straight to the point. This reduces unnecessary communications so that you really are only paying fees to her for what's absolutely necessary. We trust and respect her and recommend her without hesitation.

At the beginning I was a little skeptical about hiring a lawyer, all I would hear from people is that lawyers like to cause problems. I asked Ginger to keep my children’s best interest at heart. Ginger not only did it, but listen to what I needed. Ginger and her team handled my case with professionalism and efficiency. Thank you Ginger for helping me attain peace of mind.

Ginger has been a game changer for me and my kids. She is knowledgeable about the process, listens intently to the goals you have for your case, and is very balanced in her approach to get the best outcome. When in a long initial divorce proceeding, or when in a high conflict divorce where court contact is frequent or many years, she is able to keep the bigger picture in mind. She is incredibly attentive to detail and consistently shows up for court prepared. Alternatively, she is also highly skilled at working with the other party to settle differences and come to agreement outside of court to attain the very best outcomes possible, especially when children are involved. She is a straight shooter and will let you know when you are asking for something unreasonable, or when case law does not support your request. She is incredibly respectful of what has brought you to her, and understands the psychological aspects of personality disorders. The only down side is that Ginger is very good- and therefore very busy. She will always be prepared and meet deadlines, but at times you will need to be patient and persistent in getting the document drafted, or a response if it is not of urgency. Living this life personally for many years, and being a professional in the field of high conflict divorce/GAL/custody evaluations, I can not say how much I appreciate being able to have Ginger be a part of my team in this process.

I hired Atty Murray under very difficult and complicated circumstances. My divorce had gone sideways, way sideways in more ways than I care to enumerate. The upshot: I had hired an attorney who held himself out to be an expert in family law. Turned out he could not tell his nose from his toes when it came to family law. What's worse, his license to practice law was suspended and he neither informed me, nor the opposing party, nor the courts! Add to this a very greedy and vindictive ex and an opposing counsel who was unethical at best (e.g., flagrantly misrepresented the facts multiple times all under the guise of "advocating for my client"), not to mention being superfluously litigious (my ex's total attorney fees exceeded $100,000 ... and my ex does not even make that much annually ... sad!). Anyway, despite the odds stacked heavily against me, and time running out fast (trial was roughly two months away), Atty Murray agreed to take my case and, boy, did she come out swinging! She promptly contacted all relevant parties and notified them that the injustices in the case needed to be righted. When she could not get them to cooperate, she filed superbly-crafted motions with the courts ... and came back again ... and again. I could go on and on about the tremendous work Atty Murray (and her then associate Atty Jessa Hackman) did in this case. Suffice it to say that I would unhesitatingly recommend Atty Murray to anyone going thru a divorce, whether contested or not. She not only knows the law inside out--and has a commanding courtroom presence--but will advocate for you zealously. "Indefatigable" is a word that came to my mind over and over in the months we worked together. She is also compassionate and her billing is both reasonable and transparent. Thank you Atty Murray. In my eyes, you are attorney par excellence!

I'm sure that divorce is never easy, but Atty. Murray made my difficult divorce run smoothly. She is extremely knowledgeable, competent, and professional. She gave excellent, experienced advice, while still making sure to keep me constantly involved and that the decisions made were my own. On a personal note, Ginger is compassionate and understands family situations so well. I am very grateful for her reassurance, confidence, and for putting my mind at ease during one of the most stressful and difficult times of my life. Highly recommend!!

I contacted Your Family Law Center a few months ago when my marriage exploded. Ginger didn't waste time, she caught herself up with our history and we were ready for our first injunction hearing in a week. Ginger is straight forward, she gives you real information that is at times tough to hear but without her guidance and strength my family and I would be in a much different situation. I could tell the second that we walked in the court room as the security guards welcomed her and wished her luck that I had made the right decision. I have two young children, it has never been an issue to have them along if I have to stop in to meet or sign paperwork. The office staff is friendly and the administrative assistant welcomes the girls with open arms. Ashley, the paralegal is more like a detective :) She is very intellegent, quick and organized. If you are looking for a supportive, caring, and welcoming team to really work to do what's best for you and your family, Your Family Law Center is absolutely the right choice.

Divorce is hard at any age. But for me I was 66, married 43 years and used to relying on my ex-husband for my future financial planning. Ginger and her team listened to me, sorted through my mess and dealt with my ex husband's difficult attorney. She directed me to other professionals when I needed more assistance. The team always kept me informed in a very professional manner when often I may not have been. I am forever grateful to Ginger and her team.

Ginger and Kari and everyone at Your Family Law were so helpful in the outcome of my divorce. I think they have a unique sense of who you are and from that determine what you need. Ginger's strength and determination, mixed with years of experience afforded me the ability to sit back and let her do her job. Guaranteed, smartest person in the room. Her extensive lists of contacts, from divorce coaches to advisors made life so much easier when things were at their most confusing. And Kari at YFL was hands-on, easy to work with and just terrific. She's Very accessible. Never having to have gone through a divorce before, they made everything feel safe. Their confidence was assuring. I don't know it necessary to generally like your divorce attorneys, but with this group, it was easy.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Ginger. From our first consultation, it was clear that she was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also compassionate and understood the emotional and legal complexities of my situation. Throughout the entire process, Ginger was a fierce advocate, always prepared, strategic, and unwavering in her dedication to securing the best outcome for me. Ginger has the most amazing staff! Erika and Allie were top notch!! What I appreciated most was the team's ability to balance professionalism with empathy. Divorce is awful, but having someone like Ginger and team in your corner made it manageable. Worth every penny and then some. If you are looking for a divorce attorney who will have your back, the without hesitation, look no further than Ginger!

I retained Ginger for both my divorce and for a motion that was filed against me by my narcissistic ex husband for a reduction in child support not even a year after my divorce was final. Ginger, being a mother herself, was very sensitive to my situation. She is a genuine caring woman who took the time to find out about my kids and my situation on a more personal level. Not to mention her court room demeanor was more than exceptional. My case was handled extremely well and I am satisfied with the results. I would highly recommend Ginger.
