Posted by Jazmin | July 20, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Exceptional, Stunning, and Rewarding Representation

Last year, 2017, I had called the police because I was assaulted after being asked to move a vehicle. Despite the fact of being injured, I was arrested due to false allegations made by a third party for the benefit of the "victim". I was facing a Malicious destruction of property charge and an Assau...lt and Battery charge. Through Mr. Miller's Strategic coordination and preparation we won the case and the verdict determined NOT guilty on both charges. Mr. Miller, went above and beyond to defend his client. He will work with you to get the job done and to get it done correctly. Mr. Miller was able to convey a message to the Jury of what actually happened despite all of the odds being against us. If you are seeking legal counsel, I highly recommend Mr. Miller, he is a sincere representation of the people and for the people. Due to Mr. Miller's attention to detail, cross examining the victim, and closing statement I was able to let go of the fear and believe in my future again. Thank you Attorney Miller for all that you do.

Hired Jeffrey as lawyer in 2016 for DUI

I hired Jeffrey as my lawyer for my DUI case; he was extremely knowledgeable and genuinely seemed to care about handling my case.

The perfect choice!

Attorney Miller handled a very sensitive criminal case and did a wonderful job. He was able to resolve the case before trial, and got all charges dismissed.
