The legal profession is surrounded by adversarial proceedings with emotions running high. To navigate these proceedings while managing emotions, you need an attorney who is capable of doing just that, both for you and for themselves. Our team emphasizes the importance of remaining professional and courteous to others inside and outside the courtroom and believes that communication is the key to a successful attorney-client relationship.

Specifically, at Miller | Butler our attorneys take to heart Rule 1.4 of the American Bar Association Model Rules of Professional Conduct and its comments, which provides that attorneys shall keep clients reasonably informed about the status of the matter and steps taken by the attorney on the client’s behalf. If you are an organization or entity, our attorneys hold true to this standard by following the guidance Rule 1.13 and its comments, which provides that attorneys shall timely communicate with the organization through its highest authority, or its officers, directors, employees, shareholders, and other constituents, as is appropriate given the specific matter.

With over 150 years of combined experience, our attorneys believe in treating others how we want to be treated while striving to keep their clients informed throughout the legal process.
