Chris Miller is one of the greatest attorneys I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Although, I have had an exemplary career within the legal and criminal justice system, I found myself facing felony charges after a domestic altercation with my husband. Throughout my career I have worked with many attorneys but I have never had to do so in a situation where I was the defendant. I was obviously terrified and uncertain as to what to do and where to go to for help. CA is not my home state which made things even more bewildering.
My first instinct was to search the internet for attorneys. A couple of “big” names and fancy law offices kept coming to top of my search. I was immediately drawn to a defense attorney that was formerly a prosecutor. Having worked in the legal system, I thought a former prosecutor was just what I needed. I also fortuitously stumbled upon Chris Miller’s website. His reviews were amazing and I opted to reach out to both Chris and the “former prosecutor”. Chris personally called me back within the hour and we scheduled a meeting that was quick and convenient. The other attorney’s paralegal contacted me.
Upon meeting Chris, I immediately felt at ease. He did not judge me or make me feel like a criminal. He was supportive and informative. He described several of my options and potential strategies. He formulated a couple of different plans to intervene at the police level and hopefully stop charges before they were even filed. After leaving the meeting, I had specific knowledge of the process and of strategies I could use. I took this knowledge with me to my second meeting with the “former prosecutor”
During our meeting, the former prosecutor told me that unfortunately, in the state of CA, a person charged with domestic violence is GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INOOCENT. What? Isn’t this the exact opposite of how the justice system is supposed to work??!!! I brought up some very valid points and tried to understand where he was coming from but he just made me feel like a horrible criminal. He told me that unfortunately I was at the mercy of the judge. I asked him about some of the strategies that Chris had mentioned and he said they either wouldn’t work or weren’t viable options! I left his office crying.
WELL Guess what Mr. Former Prosecutor??? CHIRS’s Strategies DID work and I WON my case!
Trusting my gut and hiring Mr. Miller was the best decision I could have made! He supported me, kept me informed throughout the case, answered all of my texts and calls (even though some might have seemed crazy), and, most importantly, he made me feel like a friend that he truly cared about.
He was always there for me when I had questions, we thoroughly talked through different strategies and outcomes, and his depth and breadth of the CA legal system was, not only helpful, but also impressive.
The care and attention that Chris has given me has been nothing short of amazing. He put in the extra work and respected my emotions and desires regarding the outcome of my case. I am very impressed with his effectiveness, professionalism, and the rapport he has with the police investigators and with the city attorneys. I believe this combination of qualities is what led to a positive outcome for my case.
Chris got me the best possible outcome and can do the same for you. Do not hesitate to hire Mr. Miller. You will not regret it!
HE WAS FAIRLY PRICED & OFFERED REALISTIC PAYMENT OPTIONS. HE'S ALWAYS BEEN EXTREMELY ATTENTIVE WITH ANY CALLS, TEXTS OR EMAILS I'VE SENT HIM. ALONG WITH THAT, HE FULLY ELABORATED ON ALL QUESTIONS HAD, WHEN THEY WOULD ARISE & PROVIDED SOLUTIONS QUICKLY. NEVER WAS THERE A MOMENT I FELT TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF, NEGLECTED OR LAST ON HIS LIST. OUR COMMUNICATION WAS CONSTANT & ALWAYS CONVENIENT WITH MY SCHEDULE.
UPON MEETING IN PERSON, HE'S VERY WELL PUT TOGETHER, PROFESSIONAL & HANDSOME! DURING OUR FEW IN PERSON INTERACTIONS AT THE COURTHOUSE, HE'S ALWAYS BEEN COMPLIMENTARY & NEVER LEFT ME FEELING BEWILDERED OR LIKE I WOULDN'T KNOW HOW TO MOVE FORWARD IN THE COURTROOM. CHRIS IS BEYOND EXCELLENT WITH THE SERVICES PROVIDED! I COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER LAWYER IN THIS TROUBLING TIME. WITH HIS GUIDANCE & MY DRIVE TO PRIORITIZE COMPLETING ALL NECESSARY STEPS TO GET THIS DUI OFF MY CHEST, WE MANAGED TO CONQUER THE WHOLE THING IN A MATTER OF ABOUT 6 MONTHS.
FINGERS CROSSED THAT I NEVER HAVE TO REFER HIM TO A FRIEND OR FAMILY MEMBER IN THE SCENARIO OF A DUI, BUT IF SO OR YOU'RE LOOKING FOR A DYNAMITE LAWYER - I WILL PRAISE HIS ABILITIES & SUGGEST HIM TO ANYONE LOOKING FOR DEPENDABLE GENTLEMAN!
THANKS A MILLION, CHRIS!
You are a great lawyer and I’ve dealt with a handful not counting public defenders. Every other lawyer I spoke to I can hear and feel that they knew that I was in a s@@ty situation and that they saw me as a s@@ty person just like the courts. I couldn’t tell the difference between these lawyers and the prosecutors.
I want to say that you’re very respectful and hands on with you’re way of working but that’s not even a sugar coat on how I can express myself about you and your work.
Thank you for hearing me out and actually giving me a chance to show you what I was about, which is my family.
Thank you for the respect that you showed my family and actually giving us hope that things would turn out ok.
You’re a great lawyer
Thank you for everything
I found him on Thumbtack and he got back to me instantly and called me as soon as I gave him my phone number. He gave me an excellent price, slightly lower than some other competing attorneys. I wanted to know him more before deciding to hire him so he met with me at his office to discuss the situation further. He is an excellent listener and it really felt like he genuinely cared about me. Of all the attorneys I consulted with, I truly felt he was the least pushy. With everyone else, it felt like as soon as they gave me their price, they wanted a yes or no answer. With Chris, it felt like he was willing to give me information and let me think about it with no pressure.
His office is in a very nice building in Pasadena. It's a shared office space with attentive secretaries and a spacious, very upscale meeting room. The secretaries are willing to make copies and they were friendly.
In terms of results, I was very pleased with the outcome. Also, Chris made the deal on the arraignment date! I didn't even know that was possible. So the case was very fast and a great outcome. Chris was so nice as to honor the lowest price estimate he gave before we made a contract. On the contract, we assumed I may have had a more complicated case. Luckily it was a lot more simple than it could have been. Therefore, he gave me a partial refund for the price adjustment after the day he made a deal for me with the court. I think that's so awesome he did that. I felt cheap asking about it but he was so quick to honor the lower price.
Overall, it's been an excellent experience with Chris and I highly recommend him.
From the moment I talked to him on the phone I knew he was trustworthy and possessed a high amount of Integrity. I chose Chris over 3 other lawyers for that reason. He is very honest about what he can or can not do in regards to your case. Chris handled my case as if he has known me for 10 years. Working with Chris was just simply an amazing experience. If you feel you are against all odds and can not seem to find an attorney you can trust that’ll get the job done, I would recommend The Chris Miller Law Firm 1000%!
3. Christopher Miller changed my future. From what could have been a felony he had it contained to a misdemeanor with the absolute minimal punishment I was to receive all while being considerate, intuitive, understanding, and beyond knowledgeable.
I really hope anyone reading this truly comprehends how rare this is and I wish you a wonderful day.
I was in absolute panic and despair and I knew I needed help. I researched lots of lawyers and I came across the excellent reviews of The Miller Law Firm so I called for a free consultation. The moment I spoke to Chris I knew he was going to be amazing. He offered immediate comfort and solace during a time when I needed it the most. His concern and reassurance allowed me to relax a little knowing he was on my side with my best interests in mind. He was available for questions and concerns the entire time we were working on my case. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable about the law and I honestly trusted his counsel 100%. He took his time to make sure I understood everything that was going on and what I could expect. I was incredibly pleased with the outcome of my case and I would recommend Chris to anyone. I hope I never have to need the help of a lawyer again, but the first person I would call if I do need help is Chris Miller. He's an amazing lawyer... seriously.
