When I arrived in Chandra Miller’s office, I had been separated for several years after a 20-year marriage in which my husband had handled all the finances. I was paralyzed by sadness and fear about my future. The one attorney I had previously consulted looked over my paperwork (two marital agreements drawn up by my ex-husband’s trust attorney) shook her head and said, “This is very unusual,” which I already knew. What I needed was someone with the fortitude and knowledge to guide me through a contentious divorce. Thankfully, Chandra turned out to be just that person. Right off the bat, she told me I was in for a tough fight, she was up for it, and she would not fight harder for me than I fought for myself. I was impressed with the speed and accuracy with which she assessed the legal points, as well as the emotional aspects, of my situation. She further informed me that she would not take me on as a client unless I saw a therapist. I left her office with a referral to an excellent therapist and the belief that, with Chandra as my attorney, I no longer had to be a passive bystander in my own life. I am happy to say that Chandra in action surpassed anything I could have asked for. Thanks to her dedication, intelligence and integrity, I didn’t just survive the divorce process, I came out of it with the confidence to manage my own finances and make my own decisions. Chandra’s legal acumen and intuition were invaluable in navigating a divorce complicated by two ambiguous marital agreements, and she did an outstanding job of protecting my interests every step of the way with a laser focus on details that had major consequences. At the same time, she always kept the big picture in mind and educated me throughout the process, which enabled me to withstand a lot of pressure to compromise my financial future. Chandra treated me not as a case but as a person, which meant that when the divorce was final I was left with not just a financial settlement and support (both of which I was very happy with) but the means to manage my new life. During the divorce process, she brought in a financial analyst to help us come up with a realistic settlement amount and introduced me to a trust attorney, both of whom I continue to consult today. Furthermore, Chandra has been extremely responsive and helpful when issues arise around enforcement of the marital settlement agreement. And she did all of this in a very cost-effective way, not only helping us stay out of a lengthy and very expensive court battle, but always being conscious of her own fees. Retaining Chandra as my divorce attorney is undoubtedly one of the best investments I will ever make.

Chandra Miller was nothing but professional with me as she represented me during my divorce after I struggled to do it on my own. I don't imagine it is ever an easy process, and I am ever thankful she took me on. If not for her, I would not have known the difference in language in a few key pieces of the settlement proposal She looked out for my interests and showed patience when explaining things to me in a way I could understand. I never got the feeling she was working for herself; rather, she was working for me. She actually represented my friend's ex during their divorce, and even my friend was impressed with her. I wholeheartedly recommend her.

Bringing Chandra on to represent me was the best decision, and piece of luck, I’ve had. She is firm and polite, driven but understanding and decisive but thoughtful. If you are fighting for what is just and right in this world, you want her on your side. I’ve been blessed to have someone with such high integrity, moral character and professional excellence fighting for my cause. She truly is the embodiment of values, tenacity and dedication that every attorney should strive for and every client should seek to hire.

I was extremely lucky to be referred to Chandra Miller at the beginning of the divorce process. She is ethical, legally brilliant and a straight-shooter. She was completely up-front with me at every turn, explaining my options and what each option would mean for me financially, as well as for my case. She was able to cut through the emotional turmoil, reduce the drama and stick to the facts, reminding both sides of the true issues at hand. She was always completely prepared and efficient with her time (and mine). She worked toward a win-win for me when possible, but was willing to fight hard when not. I was determined to take the high road and Chandra has the highest of ethical standards, even when opposing counsel was less than. She advised what to expect (both immediately and long-term) so I was never shocked by anything. She kept my case out of court but pushed to get my case settled as quickly as possible. She is an “outside the box” thinker, as well, and was able to find creative ways to settle my case which avoided court and a longer divorce process. She is a perfectionist and is on top of everything, making me feel like I was her only client. She was also fiercely protective of me and was passionate about my case. I referred a friend (who had gotten nowhere with previous attorneys) who stated that Chandra brought a fresh, direct perspective and was able to facilitate the end of a never-ending case in short order. I am so grateful I was lucky enough to stumble upon the most brilliant attorney in the area. Her ability to REDUCE conflict and facilitate resolution, instead of encouraging ongoing conflict, sets her apart from most other attorneys. I would highly recommend her, especially for anyone facing a contentious, emotional divorce.

Chandra represented me in a difficult divorce case and did a superb job. It was a very complicated situation and Chandra approached it strategically, efficiently and pragmatically so that we could arrive at a solution that worked for both parties involved that cut through the emotional overhead attached to a long-term marriage ending. She listened effectively to both parties and was very consultative through the entire process. Chandra was able to drive both parties to resolution in the pretrial conference phase that saved significant time and money by averting a trial that would have resulted in the same outcome. She is maticulous in her preparation for each meeting, court date..... Her negotiation skills with extremely difficult individuals (including opposing attorney) is excellent. Could not have hired a better attorney and incredible human being to represent me. If you need a total brilliant, professional, skilled negotiator and a straight shooter who delivers on what she says she's going to do, hire her immediately. You will be thankful you did.

I hold Ms.. Miller in the highest regard and recommend her without hesitation as she is a very talented attorney of the highest caliber! Ms. Miller used her knowledge of the law to win and settle my case that had been going on for 9 years, 11 months, and three prior attorneys! The first step she took was to understand my case by writing a brief (which the three prior attorney's had not done) which clarified and highlighted my story. She was patient and explained the law in "layman's" terms to assist me in understanding the challenges, hurdles, and strength of my case. She was respectful of me, the opposing counsel, the Judge, and the rules and order of the courtroom. I appreciated her including, updating me, and checking in with me during the 13 months that she prepared my case for trial. I cannot repeat enough times how strong of a moral compass she demonstrates, her passion and understanding of the law that allowed us to win. I was so confident in Ms.. Miller's legal abilities throughout my case I knew that she would represent me to the nth degree. I finally felt protected and in excellent hands! I want to add that her hourly rate was lower than my prior three attorneys and I wasn't charged for frivolous expenses - I gladly paid her fees as I knew that she was working extremely hard to protect me legally, emotionally, and mentally - a rarity in my experience with attorneys both in m personal and professional life. If you want an attorney that represents you 100%, Ms. Miller is the attorney that you want in your court!

Ms. Miller represented me successfully in an unusual and difficult case, against a very experienced and treacherous opponent. You will not find a more committed advocate, or one with more integrity. If she commits to your case, it is because she believes in you, and will put her heart and soul into representing you. She is a perfectionist--highly demanding-- of herself, her staff, and anyone engaged in your case, including you, to some extent. She kept me focused on the big picture of my case, the law, of which she is very knowledgeable. She was completely prepared, for the expected and the unexpected in Court, and she was brilliant at every hearing, even earning praise from the judge on her preparation and performance. Well deserved, I might add!

Ms Miller has taken on my horrendous case, and given 200% of her time and energy to advocating for me. She is always prepared, organized, and always wins, for me, whatever she has put in writting. She is the best lawyer on the planet. If you are in the possibility of divorce, don't walk, run to obtain her as your counsel. You will have the BEST looking out for you. She knows her law, does her research. She is the sword w/ the marshmallow on the end-the other side doesn't know that she is tough. She shines in trial and won a year long battle for me in court. I can not say enough about what she did and continues to do for my situation-she will be my lawyer for life.
