This guy is a master of his craft. Attorney's do what the common person can not, William is a true pro.

Upon seeking out William to help me in a visitation case for my long lost son of 16 years. William helped maneuver me through the NJ family court and its many obstacles. our case drug out for about 6 months due to unforeseen issues with my son's mother. Ultimately no William never did get me visitati...on that I sought. Instead somehow with some magical twist of legal excellence and also luck I was awarded full custody of a child who was taken and kept from me for 16 years. My son still lives with me today thanks to the amazing Mr. Miller and I voluntarily allow him to visit with the mother who kept him from me. But Mr. Miller never gave up on my case and put in countless unpaid hours running to state offices on my behalf and burning many nights of midnight oil researching and forming my case. I thank you good Sir for doing something for me that a common man such as myself would never have the ability or chance to do. What he pulled off is so unheard of in the legal world I'm still shocked. The odds of getting a father not only custody but the mother was never awarded a dime of child support for the last 16 years she kept the child from me. He is incredibly honest. He signed me to a retainer for a standard visitation case and choose to not charge me a dime over the retainer due to the case twisting into many court visits and extra paperwork that was not within the scope of our original agreement. He could have raked me for thousands upon finding out this was a bigger case or dropped it altogether due to the lack of chance to win. He asked me "how far down the rabbit hole I wished to pursue this legal action" my immediate response without thinking of possible cost was "take us to the bottom of the hole" within weeks of that conversation his words to my concerned wife about cost was "this will cost you nothing over your retainer even if I have to fight for the next 2 years" I would like to say I hope he does something truly amazing with his legal career, but he can retire now for he's already attained amazing... Good luck to him I hope I never need his service again but if I do I will call him.
