Awesome Person First Awesome Lawyer Next

Justin and his office staff helped me when I was down. I was getting divorced and had nothing. He listened and we formulated a plan to move forward. We set up a very reasonable payment plan that didn't crush me Justin is THE BEST!

"I met Justin several years ago as our paths crossed during different criminal matters. I have seen Justin's passion first hand in defending his clients. I also know he does work in other areas in the law. When I have a client contact my office about an area of the law that I do not work in, but I know Justin does I have no issues referring them to Justin."

"I have known Justin Miller for many years. He is genuinely concerned with getting the best outcomes for clients. Prior to opening his own firm, he spent valuable years as a public defender, and, prior to that, as a law clerk to a Centre County judge. I recommend him to anyone seeking help with a criminal (including appeals) or family law matter."

"As an appellate and post-conviction attorney I deal with professional peers on a daily basis. I've seen many records and in turn attorneys good and bad. What I can say is that from the get-go Justin Miller impressed me. He was professional to deal with, collegiate, and most important passionate about his work. I got a real sense he cared about his clients and justice. Those are rare traits in an often jaded profession. I tip my hat to this good man and endorse this attorney."

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I've known Justin for several years, and I've had the privilege of watching him represent clients during preliminary arraignments, preliminary hearings, pre-trial motions, trials, sentencing, post-trial motions, and appeals. His knowledge of the law and courtroom procedure is thorough and accurate. Every time he walks into a courtroom, he is thoroughly prepared, and his client's best interest is always foremost on his mind. Justin's ethics can never be questioned, and his character is beyond reproach. It is obvious that the driving force of his practice of law is the prevention of miscarriages of justice. For these reasons, and many more too numerous to mention here, I recommend Justin Miller."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
