A member of the Georgia Bar since 1949, Murphy began his career practicing law in his home county of Haralson, building a thriving practice first in Buchanan and later in Tallapoosa, also serving 10 years as a member of the Georgia House of Representatives. In 1971, Murphy was appointed by then-Gov. Jimmy Carter as a superior court judge in the Tallapoosa Judicial Circuit, covering Haralson and Polk counties.
