After witnessing this firm in action recently, and seeing a *shocking* review left recently on…read moreGoogle Reviews about domestic violence, I felt strongly compelled as a citizen to leave this review. One of the reviews for this firm celebrates a legal victory, but it's important to challenge the narrative presented. An acquittal in a court of law does not automatically equate to a "false accusation." It signifies that the legal standard of proof "beyond a reasonable doubt"--a very high bar--was not met by the prosecution. Many documented cases of domestic violence, unfortunately, do not result in convictions due to the inherent difficulties survivors face in the legal system. Credibility attacks, skillful legal maneuvering, and the way trauma can impact memory and testimony are often exploited, regardless of the underlying facts or evidence like documented injuries. Praising an attorney for "destroying the credibility" of a complainant, especially in a DV context, warrants scrutiny. Was credibility destroyed, or was a traumatized individual effectively attacked on the stand? To suggest this acquittal definitively proves the accusations were false ignores the statistical reality that the justice system frequently struggles to deliver convictions in these complex cases. This outcome could equally be viewed as another example of those systemic failings. While this legal chapter may be closed, the underlying facts remain. One hopes that all involved consider the potential long-term consequences, as public and professional opinion often takes a broader view than the courtroom allows, especially if the full circumstances, documentation, and witness accounts were ever brought to light.

Ms. Miller and her team at Miller Law Group worked with my co defendant and I at every turn to ensure we were represented at the very highest level, they were extremely well prepared, and Jennifer can see right through the BS and has the ability and experience to shut it down. Thank you to the entire team for representing us so well, thank you for your kindness, and thank you for seeing us through to the end.

My ex and his lawyer were completely unreasonable and not following timetables and guidelines. She kept them on task and "honest", which in this case is a stretch. She was available, detailed and kind at an extremely stressful time. She also kept me on task. So much so that I found myself researching things he was unwilling to provide, wouldn't prove, or was flat out lying about. And I came out with the best results I possibly could.

Susan Alexander was an absolute blessing to my life. Susan came highly recommended to me in the…read morebeginning of a complicated and emotional custody battle. It only took one phone call to realize that she was the person I wanted in my corner. I came into this situation without much in-depth knowledge of the family court system, and with an extremely high level of anxiety regarding both my dealings with my ex, and with the outcome of this case. Susan was there for me from the start. She respected my autonomy by allowing me to express myself and my desired outcomes, while prioritizing my priorities. She truly cared about the end result of our case. She helped me to create an effective strategy in managing interactions with my ex, as well as a legal strategy that was effective in the courtroom. My anxiety regarding this situation was almost paralyzing. My ex wanted to take our toddler for a great deal of time and bring him into an environment that I did not feel was safe. I was completely blind-sided by my ex's hiring of an attorney and requesting up to 4 nights a week with our son. Once I explained my complicated situation to Susan, she made me feel as though there was light at the end of the tunnel. Never had I considered lawyers to be compassionate, but that is exactly how I would describe Susan. Compassionate and strong. She was ready to go to battle for me. I must also speak to Susan's experience. Susan has been licensed for over 20 years and that wealth of knowledge is apparent in her dealings with the family court system. She was honest with me regarding what she anticipated the outcome of our hearing to be, and strategized in order to achieve our ultimate goal. She was exactly correct in her predictions and got me exactly what I wanted. Susan did it all, and I truly consider her a blessing to myself and my family. The legal battle with my ex will continue into next year, and I would want no one else to represent me or my child's best interests. When this situation began I was completely devastated, but with Susan I found hope. And thanks to her continued and effective level of excellence, I have found confidence as well.

For those who lean toward the former approach, Adrienne Keith is a fantastic resource, not only as a lawyer but as a calm, steady person. She works in Collaborative Law as well as mediation, and is active not only in volunteering but also in writing an insightful, funny, sensitive blog about divorce and family law-related topics (http://splitsvillenews.com/). While I didn't technically utilize Collaborative Law (she provides legal divorce services other than just that process), Adrienne was so helpful in carefully walking me through each step of the process, always calm, professional yet warm, and perfectly prepared. I truly appreciated her attitude of non-combativeness and of working to find mutual solutions to sticky issues. Should you find yourself or know someone who's in the situation of needing representation through a divorce or family law issue, do yourself a favor and get in touch with her. Plus, on the way out of the courthouse she handed me a really thick envelope....When I got home, I opened it. A lovely bar, of bittersweet chocolate.

Stephanie has been a great resource for numerous of my family members. She helped my late husband and me with our estate planning and now, several years later, has prepared pre-nuptial agreements for my upcoming marriage. My father-in-law has benefited from her services as well. Additionally, I introduced her to my brother so he and his wife could update their legal documents. Stephanie drove to their home, quite a distance to do the signing, as it was easier for them. One of the things that has impressed me about Stephanie is her journey into the legal profession. She previously worked as an occupational therapist dealing primarily with adults with physical and mental disabilities. She discovered that the correct use of law is a powerful tool in protecting these vulnerable individuals, and she took that knowledge and compassion into forging a new career in law. For as long as I've known Stephanie, she has impressed me with her genuine interest in me and in helping me arrange my legal matters in a way most beneficial to me.

Stephanie doesn't believe in cookie cutter solutions -- she truly takes the time to understand your values and what matters most to you before creating customized estate plans. From the very beginning, her approach felt deeply personal and incredibly thoughtful. Every document she created was individually tailored with remarkable care and expertise. That level of detail and customization proved invaluable after my loved one died. Her documents held up to some difficult and unique circumstances surrounding his death and provided tremendous peace of mind. Stephanie patiently walks you through every part of the process of producing your documents, making sure your wishes are captured exactly as you envision and then ensuring you understand and feel fully confident in what you're signing. Her fees were exactly as discussed, with no surprises and at no point did I feel rushed. She went above and beyond my expectations in extraordinary circumstances. Compassion is truly the cornerstone of her practice. Stephanie brings not only expertise, but genuine heart. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
