Simply the best!!!!!!!

I met Tara a short time after I was injured on the job. The company I was working for was just pushing me around and steam rolling me. That is when I decided to hand my case over to Tara. That was one of the best decisions I could have ever made. Everyone knows that these cases take time, but Tara... started getting results immediately. Her knowledge was amazing. I was constantly informed as to what was going to happen, and I was always kept in the loop. Tara cares about her clients which gives her more of an edge, because that makes her want to do the best for you that much more. Tara gave me hope for the first time in a long time, and did everything in her power to make sure that I was taken care of by the company that I had been with for 10yrs. With the way that Tara worked, being knowledgeable, controlling (of the situation), and one well of a negotiator she helped make a horrible situation end up working out the best it ever could in my favor. Hopefully I will never have to go through something like this again, but if I do Tara will be the very first person I call. My trust for this lawyer goes beyond just being a lawyer. I consider Tara to be my friend, and I would put my life in her hands again without a doubt!!!

An amazing lawyer!!

Tara Millan took on our case like it was her own daughter who had been in the accident. She met with us, checked in on us often, and responded to my many anxious concerns with compassion, patience and kindness. She supported me emotionally, stayed on top of all billing issues, and got us a much bigge...r settlement than I expected to help take care of our daughter's follow up care. Tara became a sincere friend almost instantly, and is the perfect balance of a listening, caring support and a focused advocate to get us what we needed. I am forever grateful for the time energy and work Tara did for us! I am confident that she'll be the one to get it done for you as well : )

Tara is right on the money!

I have had a few different family law lawyers over the years for an ongoing problem and have burned through thousands of dollars with not great results. Going to talk with Tara was so different than talking with other lawyers. She took the time to listen to me and really cared about the result! ...She communicated with me during my whole case and got great results. I have had other lawyers burn through big money quickly with bad results. Tara gave me an accurate estimate of what kind of money to expect to spend and how long it would take. She always answered my calls and prepared me for meetings. I always knew where my case was headed. I will for sure go back and see her in the future if I need more help. She is great!

Great attorney!

The insurance company denied my claim until Ms. Millan got involved. She worked on my claim for about two months and got me all the coverage available! I was really happy with her work. She did such a great job. Ms. Millan communicated with me really well. She returned my calls the same day and... met with me many times to let me know where the case stood. I could not have been happier. I hope I don't need to go back to see her-but I certainly would.

A Real Gem!

I was involved in an MVA three years ago. After being hounded by the other driver's insurance company, I contacted Ms. Millan. It was a difficult case, involving multiple medical procedures and surgeries. Tara was professional, yet supportive, understanding and compassionate. She was able to get ...me the maximum policy limits on a large policy. Even though my case took a long time to resolve, Ms. Millan kept in contact and kept me apprised of the progress of my case. She was honest with me and helped me to remain positive throughout that entire ordeal. I would heartily recommend her services to anyone.

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.
