Hired Law firm 2017-2018GREAT ATTORNEYS! I hired Miller & James to review my case in November of 2016 for $5,000. I work in the courts and see attorneys every day. I could tell David had what it took to win. He was a commander in Viet Nam and you can see it in his style. I was concerned at first because I did not hear from them much. But later I realized it takes time to review all the documents, find a willing expert, etc. (it took about 8 months for my case). Things definitely changed when we began prepping for arbitration. David now called me twice a week. There were times I would call David in tears, and he would pull me through. He was always patient and kind. It said a lot about his character that the letterhead trial attorney would take time for me. When the review was finished, they took my case on contingency. They found an expert who is a highly regarded professor at UC Irvine to testify on my behalf. David and Patricia said I had a good case, but pointed out that all cases can be lost and that there were no guarantees. I told them I didn’t have unlimited funds and they were very sensitive to my financial limitations and worked with me to limit case costs. I was still having some medical issues and David went out of his way to set up an appointment for another opinion. This doctor was the best in his field, and I appreciated David making this happen. His staff was very professional, especially regarding sensitive medical information. I worked with them for over two years on my medical records, discovery, depositions, and arbitration preparations. Medical malpractice cases aren’t for the faint of heart. It was a lot of work. I had to answer long lists of questions and depositions can be a little intimidating. But having good attorneys like David and Patricia by your side makes it better. Later in the case, the defendant made a settlement offer but David advised to reject it. I was glad we did. We went to arbitration and settled for significantly more! Overall, it was a long and difficult experience dealing with my medical condition and a lawsuit at the same time, but David Miller and his law firm were there for me. I really felt like I had a heavyweight champion fighting for me. David didn’t take any crap and fought hard. He’s a good man and I will always be grateful for what he and his staff did for me. I highly recommend David and his firm.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
