Miller Upshaw Family Law, PLLC
Nashville Family Law Lawyer
Overview
I grew up in Dothan, Alabama and graduated from Auburn University in 1985. I have lived in Nashville since 1986 and I love it! I love to travel, even if it is just to the beach for a long weekend. I like being outdoors and love to take long walks with my labradoodle, Stella, for exercise. I am married to attorney Phillip Miller and we share office space in a beautiful Victorian house on Woodland Street in Nashville...very convenient to the Courthouse, and free parking! My favorite thing about practicing family law is that I get to help people work through very difficult situations, and I am result-oriented...If you are in the process of a divorce or are considering a divorce, I urge you to focus on the solution instead of the problem...and hire a lawyer who will do the same!
