Awesome attorney

I highly recommend Millard Law Firm. Marcy and Jill represented me for my divorce and then a custody dispute. Both cases were difficult and traumatic for me, and Marcy and Jill helped me every step of the way. They were knowledgable and guided me through the entire process. They would advise me i...f my expectations weren't reasonable, and provided ideas about how to compromise in ways that were acceptable to me, which was extremely helpful. They never pressured me into any decision. They were very responsive to my correspondences. Marcy also was cognizant of keeping fees as low as possible, and would have her staff perform tasks that did not require her input. Marcy's staff are just like her in that they are friendly, respectful, and thorough. Marcy has been a lifesaver and I can't thank her enough!

Professional and results-oriented law firm.

Marcy Millard and her team at the Millard Law Firm represented me in my moderately complex, mid-to-high-asset divorce case. The firm kept my case moving steadily towards resolution over the course of nine months. The case took that long to resolve because the division of assets was contested by mysel...f and my ex; there were lots of financial documents to be accumulated/processed/analyzed by each side's attorney. Things were also slowed-down by my ex deciding to change from her original law firm to a different law firm midway through the case. If you and your soon-to-be-ex have widely-divergent views on what constitutes a fair division of assets, you cannot simply snap your fingers and come to a fair settlement. You have to let time and negotiations play-out to their logical end (which is hopefully a negotiated or mediated settlement, in lieu of letting the judge arbitrarily split the assets). Marcy Millard knows the law, the lay of the local legal landscape, and when to call-in a forensic accountant or other experts to support your case (if necessary). If you need a divorce attorney, she is a great choice to represent you!

Can't recommend enough!

Let me start by saying that I am forever grateful for Marcy Millard, Jill Byers and the rest of the team! I have been working with them since 2011 to obtain sole custody of my son. Their expertise and ability to navigate through two complicated court battles was invaluable. What makes this team so... special, though, is the level of support and compassion they showed during such a difficult time. We worked together to build our strategy and they were completely invested in helping me protect my son. I cannot thank them or recommend them enough!

Best law firm and team to handle my case.

My case was handled swiftly from the beginning till the end. Marcy & Jill and all the ladies in the team updated me constantly. They also anticipated problems that might come up if I start up wrong in the case before I decide to proceed. They both gave me options which resulted amazingly quicker than... I anticipated. Although my case involved that I can be emotional with regards to going back and forth with my questions and emails they didn't try to suppress it but they let me express myself on the case. More power to the ladies team of Millard Law:)

Professional, Organized, Responsive, and a Great Advocate

Marcy represented my husband in a custody dispute regarding his child. The case lasted more than a year (through no fault of Marcy's) and Marcy was great every step of the way. She was very organized, very responsive, and very understanding of our situation. As an attorney myself, I knew that hirin...g an effective attorney was extremely important for the case and I am very glad we selected her. I've worked with many other attorneys in my professional life so I am able to compare Marcy to other family law attorneys that I have dealt with. When we met with her before trial Marcy was extremely prepared and knew the case like the back of her hand. We also appreciated that she or a member of her office always responded to us the same day that my spouse or I contacted her. Both my husband and I were impressed with her performance both in terms of her written motions and also in the courtroom. The judge's ruling allows my husband more visitation time with his child which made us very happy. I would definitely use Marcy again and highly recommend her!

"Marcy is passionately committed to the best interest of her clients. In addition to her technical skills as an attorney, Marcy has the unique ability to be understanding of the emotional drain a divorce causes to her client while at the same time providing her clients with an honest and practical assessment of the legal options available (or not available as the case may be). Her clients know she is their advocate, and they also know she will tell the truth about their options. I highly recommend Marcy as an attorney."

"I see firsthand everyday how Marcy truly cares for her clients and works diligently to get each and every client the right result for his or her situation. Not only does Marcy want the best for her clients, she is genuinely concerned about the children who are involved in divorce and child support matters. Marcy often works as a guardian ad litem in cases that other lawyers handle to provide the courts with insights into how the children may be affected by a divorce proceeding. Marcy is also involved with Visions Anew, a non-profit organization that helps those who are going through a divorce cope with a life-changing process."
