Olympia Capitol Park Foundation

I have worked with Mr. Miller for over thirty years, most recently as counsel to a non-profit foundation. He handles both the foundation's registration and reporting requirements and representation in land use matters that affect the mission of the foundation. He is an effective and knowledgeable ad...vocate and advisor. He is an excellent communicator and diligent in helping to advance the goals of the foundation.

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.
