It won’t take long for you to realize that you’re dealing with someone who rises above the rest. He was the only lawyer that showed interest to take my call after his paralegal put my call through with the same information I gave everyone else I called. He put his heart into his work every step of the way and he humbly showed he really cares. When he was out of the office with a family member in the hospital he didn’t hesitate to return my email. I could just feel he was motivated from the start to do what is right with respect to my legal issue. If law was an exact science we wouldn’t need a lawyer. His understanding of how the law nuances pertained to my case almost made me feel his thinking is one with the court and as a result landed me on the best shade of gray in this not so black and white world of law. Coincidentally, unbenounced the opposing lawyer had represented me in the past and I could see all along the respect they had for one another which is always useful when finding the best possible outcome which may involve some type of compromise. It was a whole experience not only on an interpersonal level but with everyone involved within his firm from the lawyer working under him right down to the paralegal and not to mention with the unobjective court as it pertained to my case. I can’t imagine having any better possible outcome if given the opportunity to choose any high profile lawyer.

I’ve dealt with a few attorneys int he Dayton area, and Mr. Miller was easily the best one. Michael was in constant contact with me throughout the entire process of reinstating my license. He walked me through each step and updated me as he gathered information. Even if I had not had a favorable outcome (I did!), this was the best attorney experience I have ever had. Thanks again!

I was the unfortunate victim of identity theft in years prior. I believed I had resolved all the issues surrounding this, however an account that was fraudulently opened found its way to a creditor who filed suit against me. Mr. Miller listened to my issue and quickly established contact with opposing counsel in an attempt to resolve the issue outside of the court room. Mike continually communicated with me as the case progressed and negotiated on my behalf with the opposing party. At the end of the day, Mr. Miller established that there was no question the fraudulent account could be connected to myself and filed a motion for summary judgment which was subsequently granted by the court. Mike Miller was both professional and forthright in all communications between us and answered all my inquires in a timely fashion. If you need a personable attorney who will speak with you so you understand everything that is happening regarding your case, Mike is the lawyer for you. I cannot speak highly enough of Mike. A class act and an exceptional attorney.

I bought a home "AS IS", but the seller didn't disclose most of the needed repairs upwards of 30,000. I thought I was stuck because of the "AS IS", yet Mr. Miller fought up hill for me and WON my case! NEVER OVERCHARGED,WOULD CALL ME OFTEN, ALWAYS RET CALLS PROMPT, and was always a pleasure to speak with, NO BETTER ATTORNEY, Dan A.

I was legally separated in late 2011, however the initial settlement was less than satisfactory from a financial and emotional standpoint. For over three years I was feeling quite frankly stuck with a bad deal until I spoke with Mr. Mike Miller in early 2015. I immediately noticed a huge difference from my previous experience. Mike was very attentive, responsive, caring and very easy to work with. Within a week of hiring him, positive changes began to happen. He filed a motion for modification of our legal decree. Throughout the case, Mike provided solid legal counsel and always having my best interest at heart. Notwithstanding his busy schedule, Mike was always accessible to me, even during weekends, which translates to “peace of mind” during these difficult negotiations. Another characteristic that stood out was that he made a conscious effort to keep his legal fees reasonable through an efficient and smart legal plan and services. The expertise and dedication of Mike went way above and beyond anything I could have anticipated and imagined. His professionalism, hard work and tenacity secured a much better settlement for me which will allow me to move forward in my life. In sum, Mr. Mike Miller is a terrific attorney and a consummate professional who genuinely cared about my case and the way he provided his services. He has my complete confidence and I offer my heartiest recommendation for his legal services.

Michael was there every step of the way in my time of need! He spoke to me with respect and helped me to understand what i needed to know. He told me the truth and allowed me to make the final decisions. He was on time for every meeting and always answered my calls or e-mails within 24 hours. He is truly amazing not only as a respectable lawyer but as a wonderful human being.

I worked with Michael as his client in a contractual dispute and was very impressed with his professionalism, dedication and warmth. I jokingly told him that he proves that not all lawyers are schmucks! While I wasn't happy to be going through a legal dispute I am satisfied with the outcome and I really enjoyed working with Michael. He was even willing to work with me on financing my legal bills, which I greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Michael Miller.

I hired Miller for an appeal. His appeal lacked the grounds that was mentioned in the notice of appeal. It is my opinion that his quality of performance was extremely poor. Miller did not return my phone calls after he was paid. Office staff were rude. It is my recommendation that anyone seeking legal advice or counsel seek elsewhere.
