Subject Matter Expert

From my first phone call to the last hand shake in court, Attorney James Milligan handled my case with the utmost professionalism. He truly cares about his client's concerns and works diligently to achieve success, James Milligan saved my career, treated me with respect and made every effort possible... to win my case. When I was charged with OUI I felt there was no way possible I could win this case. After speaking with James, I realized that if anyone could win this, it would be him. I was very fortunate to have found this attorney. He is a subject matter expert in his field, his fee's were also reasonable. He is very personable and very respected by his peers in the courthouse. In conclusion I am highly satisfied with his representation.

Highly reccomended

Mr. Milligan handled my DUI case in a very professional manner. He was very knowledgeable about the case and recommended that we wave the jury and deal directly with the judge. He was then able to win my case in our first trial. He also filed for an immediate return of license which was successful in... getting returned two months before was supposed to. I would highly recommend Mr. Milligan to anyone facing a DUI case.

Outstanding, professional and effective representation

Not only is Attorney Milligan highly knowledgable in his specific field of Drunk Driving Law, he also provides a comforting guide through difficult times, by always interacting in the most professional and supportive manner possible. At the end of the day you should hire him because he will most like...ly represent your best chance at mitigating the penalties involved in these situations, but if you do, you will so appreciate the way in which you are treated, represented and supported. I had some very dire circumstances facing me, lifetime loss of license, potential jail time, the ramifications of which were staggering, literally. I drove to work today, picked up my daughter and took her for ice cream. Wihout the hard work, skill and experience James used on my behalf, that would never been possible.

Atty.Milligan is a sharp, focused, intelligent, passionate, articulate etc. attorney, who goes to bat for you & hits a home run

I was arrested for breaking 4 laws, DWI, open container, negligence and endangerment. I was charged with endangerment....that is it. After the trial the first words out of my mouth to Atty. Milligan were something to the effect of suggesting he start a show on T.V. such as Law and Order or ...Criminal Minds. His performance was one that had me completely mesmorized......outstanding. I find myself telling friends with enthusiam the questions he asked, the answers in response to those questions, his mannerisms, etc....they all clicked together with perfection.

Suzanne, criminal defense client

Attorney Milligan defended my son against an assault and battery charge. Although he specializes in DUI cases, he was extremely competent in handling our case. He was always professional, yet also showed much compassion. He answered every question we had, no matter how trivial, immediately. We co...uld clearly see how well respected Attorney Milligan is among fellow attorney's, police officers and court house staff alike. He had a precise plan of action from the first day he reviewed our case and took it over. Because of his hard work and determination we received the most favorable outcome of a not guilty finding. I would give him the highest recommedation possible.
