About

The goal of my practice is to empower people to make the best choices about how to care for themselves during their life and care for their loved ones after their death. Both times before I deployed overseas, my wife and I took advantage of the free legal services the Army provided to prepare our own Wills and Powers of Attorney. Looking back, I can see that we just did what we were told and didn't really understand that there were much better ways to set my wife and children up for success if I didn't make it home again, or worse still, if she were to have been incapacitated or died while I was away. I want to help my clients avoid falling into this same trap so they're ready for whatever life throws at them.I left active duty in 2014 to attend law school full-time at the University of Michigan. Shortly after graduating, I joined Miller, Canfield, Paddock and Stone, PLC as an estate planning attorney. I'm married to a preschool teacher and have three young children who attend Ann Arbor public schools. In my (rare) free time, I enjoy camping and fishing, board games, and reading.

A challenging situation with family Trusts led me to Sam Nuxoll. He was exactly what I needed - a smart, strategic lawyer who understood the perils of messy family politics. He was a champion for me. He helped relieve a ton of stress - and protected my space. Can't recommend him enough.

Totally organized. Totally personable, great communicator; best legal experience ever. Outstanding in every respect. Came highly recommended, but even better in actual encounters. He was/is outstanding.

I had the pleasure of working with Samuel 'Sam' Nuxoll, Attorney at Miller Canfield, to update my Trust and Will. Our family has worked with Miller Canfield for over 30 years. When our Attorney retired, we were fortunate to have Sam take over our needs. Sam is a great young man. He is capable, competent and knowledgeable. He is friendly and well spoken. He came to my home and carefully reviewed all the necessary steps in updating a Will and Trust. He helped me to understand the 'legal jargon' in a patient and kind way. He explained options and possible outcomes to make sure all matters are properly stated. I now have an updated, organized Trust and Will. It gives me peace of mind knowing that my family will be well informed when the time comes. I hope to work with Sam for any legal needs for many years to come. Many thanks.

My husband and I, both lawyers, needed to revise our estate plan. Having two lawyers as clients is not easy. Sam was incredibly thorough and detail-oriented, in both his advice and in his execution of the necessary documents. He has a great sense of humor, and was a joy to work with. This is our third go-round for estate planning over our 30ish years together, and was far and away the most positive experience.

Sam was just excellent to work with. Clearly very knowledgeable about the Estate Planning process and able to communicate the essential elements and as much of the specifics as we queried. He is very client-centric in his work and I feel 100% confident of our daughters working with him when the day comes (in the distant future). We are looking forward to working with Sam over the years. Highly recommended.

Serious expertise paired with impressive attention to the details of our situation. He is also an ultra-responsive communicator, which you don't always get with lawyers of his caliber. Highly recommend!

I was referred to Sam from a professional friend of mine. This turned out to be one of the best refusals I have ever received. My wife and I decided to set up a trust for our young family. And during an uncertain time globally we were unsure where to begin. Immediately Sam made us feel welcome, made the process smooth and effortless. Not only was it painless, we genuinely felt taken care of. Our information, wants,needs, and families future was certainly handle professionally. I would refer his services immediately for any legal council.

Contacted and hired for the above purposes. The assistance was complicated by unrelated factors (pandemic, family locations); Sam managed it all with skill and sensitivity. Competing schedules and venues came to closure with his orchestration. Personality and professionalism facilitated the whole process.

Sam Nuxoll did a terrific job for me in revising my old revocable trust done out -of state. In an initial consultation he interviewed me skillfully and rather briefly, then produced a will and trust document that were easy to understand. I had a few questions and revisions, but we settled those quickly and efficiently. I am very pleased with his efficient work and his kindness.
