He had a very good grasp of the process, mechanics of the system and the interdependencies of the case.

It took only a week to resolve my case, a speedy process. · Sense of Urgency/Follow Through Once he was provided with the information and discussed the detail of my case, he went to work.

Mr. Rapp was incredibly easy to talk to, and I found myself spilling the whole story without reservation. At no time did I feel judged. Actually, I felt relieved after our first meeting because I knew he was going to do everything he could for me. He was always available, kept me informed throughout the process, and went to the prosecutor over and over again in an attempt to get me the best possible deal. I hope to never need an attorney again, but if I do, I know I'll be calling him without hesitation. Honestly, I would recommend him to anyone who finds themselves in need of a lawyer.

But this time I got speeding ticket from a State Trooper who is smarter than the Waze app. (He used moving radar, got me on I-71 at mile marker 34, which is not half a mile from where the speed limit raises from 65 to 75. This guy knows exactly how to game the system.) Working with Attorney JR Bernans was a breeze. He advised me on the current state of the local prosecutor (some recent personnel changes at the courthouse added some nuance to the case. We discussed strategies, and probable outcomes. And while I know that everyone will not be as fortunate as I in their legal disputes, JR was able to reduce my speeding ticket to a nonmoving violation. This guy is GOOD at his job. Took all of the hassle and stress out of the equation for me. ac And while I can't vouch for the firm at large, I expect that if they attract talented attorneys like JR, working with Rittgers and Rittgers is probably going to be a great experience for you. It certainly was for me.

Hired Wes Durham for divorce representation. He failed to give basic guidance and acted like I…read moreshould magically know everything I needed to do- like I get a divorce every day. When I pointed it out, he got angry instead of helping. His clerks were rude and even blamed me for their mistakes. He bragged about his own house instead of focusing on mine. And despite me arriving 15 minutes early, he left me sitting in the waiting room for over 30 minutes past my scheduled appointment. I paid for legal support and got dismissiveness, arrogance, and wasted time. Retiring or not, clients deserve better. To make matters worse, Mr. Durham delayed releasing my case file after I terminated services until I threatened them with contacting the Kentucky Bar Association, dragging out an already stressful process. I was expecting a refund, however, they wanted to charge me even MORE than what I'd already paid. His final invoice was padded with excessive charges- $75 for a single summary letter and hundreds more for redundant 'review' and 'emails.' Even basic client communication was billed as though it were complex litigation. After I disputed the charges, the firm only waived the remaining balance when I made it clear I was ready to involve the Kentucky Bar Association. That's twice I had to threaten them with the Bar Association, and they caved both times. Beware.

The staff at Miller and Durham is the best and most understanding people there. I have not once felt like I was treated as a case, but like I actually mattered to these folks. It is not easy for a father to gain custody of his children, and for what reason who knows. Mr Miller did not back down in my case and fought for me and my children. IF YOU ARE READING THIS AND GOING THROUGH ANY LEGAL MATTER AT ALL IT WOULD BE IN YOUR BEST INTEREST TO CHOOSE MILLER AND DURHAM!!!! I WILL ALWAYS BE THANKFUL FOR EVERYTHING THAT THEY HAVE DONE FOR ME AND MY CHILDREN.

Absolutely the most egregious example of what is wrong with attorneys and their methods in my…read moreopinion! Incredibly friendly on the front side...the receptionist I spoke with was very kind...but that's not what we experienced at all as we got deeper. Didn't even have to speak to the attorney to see the sickness in their culture represented by the rude, condescending and nasty woman who refers to herself as their "assistant". I am well-experienced with law firms and utilize two for my business responsibilities quite often... THIS operation feels like a total money mill...no regard was given to the welfare and wellbeing of the client. ALL focus was entirely upon whether or not SHE felt I would bow and submit to her unreasonable requests. When she was asked to consider a more reasonable next step- the facade of warmth and professionalism melted right off and the ugliness and insecurity inside was revealed, as rather than respond reasonably-(even with a no), she became condescending and insulting and said because I didn't want to take another half hour and repeat every detail I'd already given prior to one small thing I wanted to know . She was simply asked if they would determine whether or not a conflict of interest might exist between their practice and the party I have issue with. A VERY REASONABLE request. Something that, in a well managed practice, should be simple to check on their operating system. (Computer) But apparently her fragile ego was unable to recognize she was speaking to someone with extensive experience in navigating business and legal matters...and she NEEDED to attack and have the last word. Ok-come on here and try that out in the light, dear! She is most-likely costing those partners a lot more than this case. It's standard practice to employ a well-trained gatekeeper. Some utilize a manager type-some have a paralegal. It's necessary or the attorney would never be able to get off the intake calls and bill time. However-there's a tremendous difference in placing a filter who improves your brand perception during the contact...or choosing to place an angry steel BEAR trap with a hair trigger and rusty springs there-only allowing through people who have more time than responsibilities and enough patience to be treated as an inconvenience at best. It is quite possible to steer process and control the gate without all the insecurity and total lack of emotional intelligence being employed. Not only have you lost a great potential client, but as a professional-I shudder to think of all the unseen damage this is doing to your organization and to the innocent people who come to seek representation and are instead met with such a person. I was not very kind to her after that nonsense and for that I feel badly. I just cannot imagine how it's a good idea to allow someone so chaotic to control your opportunities. I also want to protect anyone and everyone I possibly CAN from experiencing that or worse should they be inclined to seek help here. In my experience, this kind of incident is reflective of a much more deeply rooted problem and that typically starts higher up...but that's just one man's opinion. Choose wisely who you entrust...always look to see who is behind the "mask".
