About Peyton Murphy

Record Verdicts & Trial Experience

Peyton Murphy has secured four record-setting verdicts throughout his career. After a nearly three-week jury trial, he won an $18.9 million judgment for his client – more than four times the insurance company’s pre-trial offer of $4.3 million. That case became the largest single-event case ever decided by the Louisiana Supreme Court.

In 2013, Peyton obtained a $758,000 judgment for a sternoclavicular (SC) joint injury, far surpassing the insurer’s $200,000 offer. That verdict remains the highest SC joint injury verdict in Louisiana and across the United States.

Leadership & Legal Education

Beyond his trial work, Peyton serves on the Council of Directors for the Louisiana Association of Justice. He’s also committed to legal education, contributing his expertise through negotiation lectures at Tulane Law School where he helps train the next generation of attorneys.
