Tyler brings extensive trial experience across a wide range of complex legal disputes and is known for his strategic, results-driven advocacy. He has successfully tried numerous high-exposure cases to verdict and has secured multi-million-dollar jury awards and recoveries for his clients. His litigation style is assertive, disciplined, outcome-oriented, and designed to position cases for maximum leverage whether in the courtroom or at the negotiating table.

He regularly counsels companies on strategic growth, operational risk, and dispute avoidance.

Before joining Murphy Law Group, Tyler practiced at several sophisticated commercial litigation firms in the Chicago area, where he developed deep experience in high-level motion practice, discovery, trial advocacy, and complex settlement negotiations.

A Chicagoland native, Tyler earned his Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from the University of Iowa, with minors in History and Spanish.

He received his Juris Doctor from The John Marshall Law School (now UIC John Marshall Law School) in Chicago, Illinois.
