Goes the extra mile!

Attorney James Miller is understanding and knowledgeable. I was very nervous going in to the process, and concerned about my future credit if I filed a case. From start to finish, Attorney Miller had an answer for everything I was worried about. The process was organized and my case was filed quic...kly. When I called the office with questions, Attorney Miller was available to me but I was also able to things answered by Wendy, Frank, Tim - the staff definitely makes it a point to know what is going on with people's cases which made me feel very calm. I am past my first hearing and looking forward to the credit programs I can use when my case is done. I haven't felt this hopeful in a long time. If you are stuck in debt and don't know how to get out, you can trust Attorney Miller and his staff to show you the way!

Chapter 7

After doing some research on the attornies in my area, I consulted with a few before selecting Miller & Miller. They are professional yet friendly. I was always kept informed of documents and information needed. My options for getting my debts resolved were presented, and the pros and cons of each on...e carefully explained. I wasn't hurried or driven into any plan or option. I definitely appreciated their patience and compassion as my debts were due to medical bills.

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.
