Mr. Shemkus and his team were absolutely amazing and I received the outcome we had all hoped! I had a very difficult case with many missteps by the Court System and Mike knew the law to the letter. He gave me very sound advice and I found strength in knowing he was leading my fight to get my son relocated from Florida. His paralegal Samantha was amazing and always responsive plus 100% supportive throughout the case. Belinda at the front desk directed me to Mr. Shemkus when I called to tell me story because she knew he would get the job accomplished! Mike spends all his time as an attorney in Divorce

From the moment I walked in and met the receptionist. I could tell the Law Firm was comprised of true professionals They were understanding, and responsive to all my questions. I felt my attorney, Ed Murphy would be fair, honest & made a bad situation a good experience. Ed’s legal assistant Samantha was always very responsive and very helpful. If you need a divorce attorney I personally recommend Ed Murphy and his staff.

I could write volumes in support of Jack Long’s firm, and how their diligence helped me to find rest in their most capable care. During our initial consult, I quickly came to understand that he and his staff not only cared about me as their client, and representing my case, but they cared about me as a whole person. I kept his guidance and encouraging words before me and focused on brighter days ahead—his staff never failed to miss an opportunity to offer support and encouragement. As the complications rose, I only grew more secure in my confidence of the representation I chose. With my case

I would like to start out by saying how incredibly lucky I feel to have been represented by attorney Jack Long and his remarkable paralegal Samantha Richardson. They are truly top notch, attentive, professional, intelligent, and highly compassionate. The entire staff at Long, Murphy, & Zung P.A. has been so warm and inviting throughout the entire process of my acrimonious and complicated divorce. Jack is an exceptional attorney and human being. I can not say enough good things about this firm or about Jack and Samantha. I could not be happier. They are platinum!!!

Simply stated, Long, Murphy & Zung is an outstanding law firm with a well-earned stellar reputation. My case involved a very complex divorce and estate conflict that lasted over two years and even went to the 2nd District Court of Appeals, where we prevailed. The entire team at LMZ are ultimate professionals who conduct themselves with the highest level of integrity. They know the law very well and are expert negotiators when the mediation route needs to be taken. Beyond their legal skills, which are fantastic, I was always impressed with their billing practices. Over my entire ordeal, I never

After some research on who the best family law attorney in the Naples FL area was for divorce representation, I chose Ed Murphy of Long, Murphy & Zung. He and his team were forthright, efficient and performed exceptionally well. My divorce went more smoothly and faster than I could have imagined, and the result was fair. I highly recommend Ed, Samantha and the rest of their team to anyone who needs their services.
