Joseph Murphy Email & Phone Number

Accomplished Attorney and General Counsel for 20 years with corporate law, commercial contracts, regulatory compliance, and intellectual property expertise. Proven record of advising executives, negotiating contracts, and resolving legal disputes within one day. Experienced in estate and business planning, focusing on the technology industry. Skilled in government relations, tax planning, and complex leasing and licensing. A proactive problem solver and legal strategist dedicated to achieving business objectives. I started as a finance guy, pursued a law degree, and have a Master of Law in Tax. I helped develop cutting-edge technology sensors for the weather, agriculture, and communications. Additionally, I contributed to mobile communications platforms supporting Machine-to-Machine ("M2M") and the "Internet of Things" ("IoT"). I was part of a five-person team that built a cellular company with the capacity to compete against AT&T, servicing M2M and IoT platforms and cutting the cost of communications for developers. In short, I love technology, telecommunications, and new small businesses. Doing this placed me in front of many 800-pound gorillas in the mobile industry, navigating the FCC, GSMA, and Public Utility Commission regulatory environment. I have worked with Patent Attorneys, assisted with Trademark and Copyright licensing, and drafted Purchase and Sale Agreements, Employment Contracts, and many Settlement Agreements. I worked on international tax strategies for Subpart F income, Domestic Business, and Tax Planning, along with the co-related estate tax planning necessary for business owners and executives. As General Counsel, I have worked on litigation matters ranging from arbitration disputes to Federal Court cases. (Here is a tip - as a small business, you only want to fight an 800-pound gorilla if necessary.)

Listed skills include Estate Planning, Investment Strategies, Family Law, Retirement, and 3 others.
