About Craig
Craig McMurray earned his law degree from New York Law School before settling into practice in Maine. He took the steps required to become a member of the Maine bar and has built a practice that is grounded in the state’s courts and local legal community. He maintains ties to the legal institutions that serve the region and often works on matters rooted in state and municipal law.
Early in his career McMurray focused on learning the practical side of lawyering: court procedures, client counseling and the day-to-day work of running a case. He is a current member of the Maine State Bar and the York County Bar Association, connecting him to colleagues and resources across the state. Those memberships reflect an engagement with the bar that helps him stay current on local rules and developments affecting clients in Maine.
McMurray practices from Dirigo Law LLC, a firm based in Maine. At the firm he handles matters for individuals and businesses that require knowledge of state law and local procedure. He is known for taking a clear, workmanlike approach to legal problems. He favors direct communication and practical planning. Clients find that approach useful when matters require prompt attention or involve municipal and county offices.
While his career has remained focused on the state level, McMurray’s work often brings him into contact with a range of legal issues. He regularly advises clients on questions that arise for people and enterprises across Maine. That breadth keeps his practice varied. It also means he spends time both in court and at the negotiating table, depending on what a client’s situation calls for.
Colleagues describe him as steady and attentive to detail. He reserves comment in public fora, preferring to let his work speak in court filings and client outcomes. That pragmatism informs how he prepares a case and how he manages expectations with clients. He combines that approach with an understanding of the informal dimensions of Maine practice, such as local filing practices and the cadence of regional courts.
He currently practices at Dirigo Law LLC, where his work centers on advising clients on Maine state and local legal matters.
