Contract Dispute

George assisted in negotiating a leasing contract dispute. His knowledge and expertise were paramount in resolving the situation. I would highly recommend his services.

Posted by Jeniffer | December 18, 2014 | Lawsuits & Disputes

Very conservative and honest

Mr miller helped me answer questions w a broker I was working with. He was very open minded. Much more than me. So I believeve he gave me solid honest advice in dealing w my broker. We actually avoided litigation. I appreciated mr millers advice so much. He saved me a lot of time in court. ... Finally an attorney with some common sense!

Avvo Rating

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.
