Kind man, straightforward and honest attorney

Mr. Miller represented me on a mold case against a former landlord, and management company. He was patient, kind and extremely professional. Although my case wasn't one of the biggie gold mine type cases that many attorneys are looking for, he treated me with respect, collegiality and was able to he...lp me get a settlement through mediation that seemed to be the best option for the quagmire of my particular case. One should always hold negative reviews on here in perspective: often people think their cases are slam-dunks, but as we all know, the legal system is overly complex and not as straight-forward as we all would like it to be. Often cases don't turn out as we'd like them to, but I felt that Mr. Miller was above board regarding the overall merits of my case and he tried to be realistic as to the outcome. I would recommend him and/or avail of his services again.

Nothing but good things

I have nothing but good things to say about Mr. Miller and his staff. I could not be more satisfied with the outcome of the case that they stood by me with and helped me win. Even at the most discouraging times, they were always there to listen and offer advice, and ensured that I never gave up hope.... Thank you to Mr Miller and your wonderful staff! I am so glad that I came to you and your firm to bring a happy ending closure to this case!

Look before you leap!

I hired Miller Law Firm to represent my family and I in a Mold case/ Landlord Tenant. It was a disaster. He was very egger to sign me as a client and once signed he then flip flopped! With me they were very inconsistent, disorganized, Horrible communications and very challenging! I found some of his... statements to be untruthful! He referred me to medical experts then saying I had to pay. He even set up mediation and sent us the bill to pay before mediation took place although it was agreed he would cover cost. We had to continually hound him for answers or to get status. Although our case was Mold /Landlord Tenant and so was our agreement they said they would not represent us in a unlawful detainer which is a Landlord Tenant action and dealt with the Mold and un-occupancy of the unit. I was hospitalized and due to the condition of the unit we were not able to occupy it shortly after leasing and moved into a hotel. Luckily we had renters insurance who was paying part of our hotel bill. Suddenly my insurance company cancelled payment saying Miller had requested the remaining funds go to his office which in essence left my family homeless. Miller denied they had made any such request but I was able to receive proof otherwise. We had changed the agreement to a contingency agreement so he would cover cost which he was not doing. That he was to gain a larger percentage share of any settlement agreement of which we were billed mediation cost and he refused to pay. Although we asked a few times to sit down with him and meet face to face we never even meet the man. Given the circumstances of this and the other above mentioned and unmentioned factors, I fired him. Not someone I woud want to represent me!

John Miller is a professional and competent lawyer.

Mr. Miller represented me on a mold litigation matter. He worked on contingency and had my apartment inspected by a high quality inspector and did all the work necessary to win a judgement in my favor. He did not call me or 'keep me updated.' After reading these reviews I was worried that he was a sc...am. That is the farthest from the truth. Mr. Miller showed up for mediation with a large file that he had been working on the whole time. I appreciate that he did not call me during every step of the legal process. This showed by the judgement awarded that he was competently working on my legal issues and did not need my help. He had all the facts organized and ready. Mr. Miller spends his time working your case. Let him do his job. You will be amazed.

Past client complaint

We had problems with communication from the day we signed a contract with Miller Law and as a result of their poor communication we had no idea what to expect during the legal process. Miller Law did not properly disclose upfront and was negligent in handling our case. Miller Law would rarely return ...phone calls. We were very disappointed in Miller Law's performance for a number of years as our attorney. Our case eventually settled with a different attorney and not Miller Law.
