RED FLAG WARNING ‼ I attended a webinar from this firm that…read morewas very useful. So I can recommend the firm for learning purposes. I actually had been planning to work with this firm to add an additional property into an existing trust and to establish an advanced healthcare directive. However, due to a busy schedule I had pushed out my official scheduled meeting several weeks. But then something came up and I needed to reschedule that appointment. While trying to do so, I mentioned why I had to reschedule and what I was looking for from the firm. At that point the person I spoke with attitude changed. She stated that their firm was unwilling to work with an existing trust but they could make me a new one. When I asked why she said that would be modifying another firms work and they won't do that; they would only be able to create a brand new trust for me. Really? That is completely ridiculous. The recording costs alone woyld be cost prohibitive, never mind the cost of their time. Reputable attorneys work with existing trusts all the time. This is a big RED FLAG. Trusts do not belong to the firm that created it, they belong to the trust and are managed by the trustee that is often the person who had the trust created. It is a huge RED FLAG, in my opinion, that this firm insists that a new trust must be created. The only way I can make sense of that is if they want to collect payment for establishing the trust, and every deed transfer. And/or they might want to be the trustee on the new trust -- which might ensure future and possibly on-going payments. If the latter were true, that would be an even bigger RED FLAG --as it would suggest that may have a financial reason to want such control. So, I highly suggest people do their homework before working with this firm. And if you decide to do so, I suggest that you compare services and costing from another law firm. And be especially wary if they suggest being the trustee! The final RED FLAG , is that they are a "high-pressure sales" organization, where salespeople aggressively pursue potential customers through repeated calls, texts, and emails. This approach is off-putting and given what I learned in my last conversation with them it has led to negative and suspicious perceptions of the business. This is the reason I just spent 15 minutes writing this review.

Someone from Miller's office came to the hospital so my husband could sign various documents before he died, which at that point, he was so ill, he could only do with an 'X.' Several days after my husband's unexpected and tragic death, Miller and his office urged me to sign a contract that would cost me hundreds of thousands of dollars to 'manage' the estate process. Prior to that, they charged me for things they had never done (one example was charging me to transfer an out of state property to the trust, including court fees, though they never did it). It cost me thousands, in addition to the thousands I already paid this lawyer (con artist) to straighten out this mess. I now live in NH. If it were possible, I would negatively advocate for this firm. Feel free to call me for additional information-603-823-5583. I'll give you info that will make your skin crawl. In my opinion, there is no bigger scam artist in Worcester county. This firm preys on elders with no support, or recent widowers who do not have the capacity to make good decisions. Shame on you, Miller. Bring a suit against me. I've plentiful evidence for everything I've claimed here, verified by my lawyer. Call me please.

We made plans to "meet" with him via phone conference. Prior to the meeting I had questions via email that went unanswered so I asked to reschedule. Greg never got those messages and was surprised when I told him about them. After rescheduling and holding the phone meeting he promised to send us his "financial analysis" by email. It never came. I called and emailed but got no response at all from his team. Again, Greg apparently had no idea of these missteps because they weren't communicated to him. Eventually we received the analysis by email (weeks later), reviewed it and emailed him back to say we wished to proceed... but never got a reply. No follow-up whatsoever. Is he too busy to care or is his team just incompetent? In any case, this is not a financial company I wish to be handling my retirement accounts.

I hired her to represent me again. This time she was just as perfect as the first time. She was prompt, kept me well informed and again, had the charges dismissed. Afterwards, I have recommended her to anyone who would listen. She actually represented a family member of mine and had his charges dismissed also. She is phenomenal and I wouldn't even consider hiring anyone else if I ever needed legal representation in the future.

I had a bad real-estate experience with another attorney that basically outsourced my legal documents to a bulk processor of such agreements. It didn't turn out well and I will never use that attorney again. I found myself in need of a new real estate attorney and remembered how impressed I was with a presentation I had from Deb at a business meeting. So I hired her. I've used her for 2 real-estate transactions now and she is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME. She is worth EVERY PENNY AND MORE (though I never volunteer to spend more :) LOL. She is VERY COMPETENT and has a passion about taking care of her clients. She invests her full and personal attention on every aspect of a transaction. She is especially skilled at finding issues with Title that other attorneys may overlook. This helped me hugely on one of my deals as we were able to get restrictions removed that may have plagued me had they not been caught. She is a winner! No other real estate attorney I've used holds a candle to her and she is very reasonable in cost. Particularly when measured by her effort to ensure everything is as close to perfect as humanly possible. I would definitely use her again. She doesn't advertise or have a strong public presence as frankly she doesn't need to. It appears that her reputation gets her plenty of business. That being said, I couldn't remain silent. I am overwhelmed with gratitude for a two jobs well done! People of excellence deserve to be called out and celebrated for that excellence! I HIGHLY recommend Deb! :)
