Greedy and full of s**t

All I can say is do not hire this man. Hes all about money. He takes advantage of vulnerable people in a messed up situation. I will never I repeat ever hire this money hungry fraud he likes to make money off of you by selling you fake dreams. Worst ever. I hired a new attorney and let me just say he...'s fabulous and got me what I needed done. And at a great low price. Take your money and shove it you will never get a dime from me nor my people ima make sure of it. I dont know how you sleep at night. Sickening.

All Charges Nolle Prossed!

My journey in 2019 was one of the worst moments of my life, and Cory did exactly what he promised to do when he proved my innocence. Aside from just being the best at what he does, he is just overall an amazing calm support throughout the process. No matter how many calls, texts, or the times I reque...sted to meet with him he was always there. Believe me if you are facing any criminal charges this is the man you want to represent you. Thank you Cory for everything.

2nd DUI

I was facing a mandatory minimum of 90 days incarceration and Mr. Miller returned me home same day with no jail time. He also helped me along the holidays to be around family when I needed it the most. Don’t waste your time and money$ anywhere else! Thank You Cory Scott And Family

Got my son out of Jail. Charges dismissed

5.0 star rating 1/18/2017 Cory represented my son who got into an argument with his babys mother. Though she did not want to go through with the charges the cops were making her testify. Mr. Miller helped fight for his right to remain silent and the DA couldn't make her testify. After meeting wit...h us at his office, Mr. Miller spoke to the DA before going to Court. The cops did not force her to testify during the hearing and the charges were dismissed. Cory explained everything to us from the first time we met him. He returned all our calls and did not pass my sons case to another attorney in his office. After hearing our concerns he made a plan and followed it out. It went just as he said. I hope to never need him again but if I do he is the only attorney I will call. Thank you! Al Marshall

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.
