About Us

Murray, Craven & Corley, L.L.P. handles a broad and diverse range of general litigation matters in federal and state courts, as well as in administrative and arbitration forums.

Firm Highlights

Murray, Craven & Corley, L.L.P. understands the frequently excessive cost of litigation, in terms of money, resources and energy. We also understand the inherent risk in litigation and trials. We work hard to monitor these factors and conclude disputes as early and as favorably as possible.

Our attorneys have extensive tax law experience. At one time, founding partner Ocie F. Murray was chair of the tax section of the North Carolina Bar Association and formerly worked as an attorney for the IRS. Our legal team leverages this detailed knowledge of the tax code to offer tax planning services to businesses and to individuals interested in estate tax planning. We have the skills to resolve your taxation legal issues.

How We Offer Value

Co-founder Richard T. Craven brings four decades of litigation experience in state and federal court primarily working with insurance companies. We use that depth to provide clients with more meaningful, practical and innovative solutions - in both strategic counseling and technical legal problem-solving.
