Providing family legal services in the capital district, I am committed to guiding individuals through some of the most challenging chapters of their lives with compassion, clarity, unwavering support, and fierce advocacy.

About Me
Raised in Utica New York by my mother Susan and father David Murad, a former New York State Supreme Court Justice, summers meant enjoying tomato pies, chicken riggies, Utica Club, and for us - a 5k became a family holiday: the boilermaker.
While my roots in law run deep, it wasn't "the family business" that shaped my career, but rather, the untimely loss of a dear childhood friend to domestic violence. Turning helplessness into advocacy, I focused my studies at Union College, where I earned degrees in psychology and philosophy, on the intricacies of domestic abuse. I authored the thesis "Akrasia: an Explanation for the Perpetration of Domestic Violence" wherein I analyze the very real circumstances of abuse, including reasons why the abused may not leave, and also, that not all allegations are legitimate. This work exposed me to the various legal matters families may endure, abuse or not, and guided me to my calling: Family Law advocacy. I furthered my studies at Albany Law School, assisting individuals in family law matters, securing victorious results in both Family and Supreme Court as only a second year student.
Now, through Murad Legal Studio, I continue to meet every client with legal expertise and lived empathy, because I know how much it means to truly be heard during such challenging times.
In my spare time, you'll find me drawing, painting, hiking, or simply soaking up time with the people I love most—the most precious thing of all.
