Life changing error - unfulfilled promises and no show

I have been requesting that Russ Miller file for a correction in my record. I have been assured numerous times over 21 years - yes 21 years - that it will be done. Because Mr. Miller failed to do as promised it took me too long to get approved as a resource family and ultimately a precious child wit...h complex medical needs passed away in the care of inadequately trained people. I last spoke with Mr. Miller last year and have a copy of a letter I sent him in 2019. I have notes showing that I contacted him numerous times (not quite yearly) and every time, I have been assured it will be cleared up. Additionally, when my case was active, he failed to appear in court multiple times although he had already been paid. This man will tell you he will work hard for you but after he gets your money, he pretty much puts forth no effort and in the end his mistake or failure to correct the court's mistake has followed me these decades and worst of all resulted in preventing me from saving a child's life - just before her 2nd birthday. If you are considering hiring this agency, I would recommend you run - fast!!

GOOD LEGAL DEFENSE ATTORNEY!

I hired Russell Miller to represent me after being dissatisfied with another attorney. I'm African-American and have a 30 year criminal history. My case was a felony that carried a punishment of 2, 3 or 4 years state prison. Due to my lengthy criminal history and some damaging evidance I chose not t...o go to trial but rather to have Russell negotiate a plea bargain. I feel like Russell did a Good job and he kept me out of prison with a minimal county jail sentence and some probation. I'm satisfied with his performance and I never felt like he didn't like me because of my being a" Black Man". If you want a lawyer that knows his way around the legal system in Sacramento county and is respected by the judges and the district attorneys I recommend Russell Miller.

Consumer Beware!

I contacted Russell Miller from Miller Law Group regarding a criminal case and he eluded that he knew the judge and the prosecuting DA. I met with Russell Miller and Tracy Pratchen and gave them $5,000.00. After the first court date, which didn't go well, he promised to call me to let me know what ...will happen next. I could not get him to return calls and his secretary Tracy Pratchen kept saying he was out of the office. After two weeks of not being able to contact him, I fired him as an attorney. He left the case 'hanging' and had to hire another attorney. Needing money, I asked for the remainder of my money back. I could not get a hold of Russell Miller and often reached voicemail, which my calls were never returned. He kept all the money and never returned any phone calls.
