JOB WELL DONE!!!!

I was accused of child abuse back in 2016. I was able to locate Mr. Miller via Internet browsing. Contacted him by phone and filled him in about my situation and he gave me some feed back and told me a little about some of his past cases. I was immediately impressed and hired him right on the spot. ...I knew he was the person I was looking for. I had total confidence that he would give me the results I was seeking. He was awesome working my case and keeping me fully involved and aware of the process every step of the way and did so, in a timely manner. I appreciated his patience, as this was all new to me. Because of, Mr. Miller's expertise as a Lawyer and experience with Child Abuse cases...........I am happy to announce....He has another Victory Win under his belt!!!!

The Hero Our Family Needed

I have had many family law issues over the years, and have had 3 different lawyers to try and help me. Out of the 3, Mr. Miller was the most compassionate by far. He went beyond what I have seen in a lawyer. My ex husband blind sided me and basically used the system to kidnap my kids. I found Mr. Mil...ler in desperation and knew immediately I had found someone different. His tactics were different and he was to the point and I felt I wasn't being lied to or made to turn this into a " monster vs monster" case. It was about fact and he understood my children were the priority. We went to court three times together for this case. It was a long drawn out ridiculous side show that made me almost lose faith in the system and make me think twice about what this country has come to, or our rights as mothers playing both parents that no one can understand. A lot of information came out including my daughter being emotionally abused and bullied and humiliated and at one point physically assaulted by her father. This is when I realized my lawyer was different than most. My daughter had reached out to anyone that would listen and actually sent an email to everyone, teachers counselors advocates of domestic violence, anyone she thought of including myself. When Mr. Miller came to see this information I could see genuine empathy and worry in his eyes. It hit me he was actually a human being! Not to discredit all lawyers, but I have known my fair share and anyone that knows about family law knows what I am talking about. Bottom line, He fought for our family was it always perfect organization, no, but He always kept his word and went beyond what he had to. Not to mention he made sure I understood and his knowledge of the law was impressive. His strategy was sometimes not what I was used to but never wrong. I don't mean to sit here and idolize him, but I was just amazed at his demeanor. I got my kids back! He has the confidence and knowledge everyone needs in a lawyer, and the compassion and empathy a parent needs in a family law case. The fact remains, Mr. Miller was my children's warrior when no one would help them and my example that there still is people who will genuinely fight for the justice of those that can't fight for themselves.
