![]() Working on a divorce? Shaun Murphy Jr has testified as an Expert Witness in both the Duval & Clay County Courts of Law.We understand that divorce is a painful process. There are many decisions to worry about, including what's going to happen to the house. There are generally two choices when discussing the house - it can be put up for sale and the proceeds divvied up, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties would be wise to commission an appraisal of the mutual real estate.An appraisal for the purpose of asset division should include a well-supported, expert report that will hold up to a judge. Murphy Appraisal pledges to give you the very best in service with courtesy and well-supported conclusions. Handling the sensitive needs of a divorce situation is somewhat matter-of-fact for us.
