Ginger Murray | Madison Divorce & Family Lawyer

Helping families in crisis find solutions that reduce trauma for kids, while protecting your assets.

For over twenty years, my career has focused on helping families going through transitions.  I have served as guardian ad litem, attorney for parent(s)/guardians,mediator, and spent five years  presiding over matters as the Family Court Commissioner in two counties.  It is my passion to help families get through family law matters, in ways that focus on children, and reduce the trauma they experience as their family environment shifts.  As a former Mathlete, (yep, I was on my high school math team), I love the challenge of working through the financial matters involved in divorces and support cases, with an eye toward the end result that best suits my client's needs.  When I am not at work, I am with my husband, two daughters or training for my next triathlon (having already completed an ironman)!
