Everyone in the office was friendly, professional, and genuinely caring, which made a difficult situation much easier to navigate. Even after the case was over, he took the time to call and check in on me. That was so much more than I expected.
I would hope that no one would ever be put in the unfortunate position I was in, but if they do, A.J. will absolutely be the person I recommend.
AJ Miller and his team at Miller Tourtlotte Law are incredible. They represented me in an injury lawsuit and did an outstanding job. The thing I appreciated the most was the communication. Most big law firms don't have the time to keep you in the loop or delegate that task to a subordinate. Not AJ. He was constantly updating us and being very supportive throughout the entire process.
I started by hiring Miller Tourtlotte Law as my lawyer and ended up gaining a friend. I highly recommend them for all your legal needs.
made the phone call to A.J. Miller at Miller Tourtlotte Law after suffering multiple injuries in a work-related accident. He was caring, thorough, and clearly explained things throughout the process of resolving my injury claim. I really felt that he went the extra mile to get the compensation that was available to me and I was so grateful for not only his efforts, but those of his very competent office team---Yolanda and Colette, who were always so pleasant, personable, and helpful! I was also highly appreciative of the fact that I could just recuperate---confident that all of the papers, communications, and resolutions were in highly capable hands! I, without reservation, highly recommend them!
We highly recommend AJ Miller if you ever find yourself in need of a personal injury lawyer,
Mr. Miller told me how he was the best but told me I wasn’t able to call the firm if I was not having a money question. Ask Mr. Miller if he could give advocate to get me more pt he said no that even if it was helping a little bit he doesn’t understand why I would want to continue. Clearly he has never suffered from a back injury because some relief is better than nothing.
After he refused to fight for me I emailed him about the laws regarding the limit on pt apparently that was a very upsetting email for him. Mr Miller passed the blame on the Dr on worker comp everyone but himself. Told me I wouldn’t get a settlement but yet he would still be willing to represent me if I wanted? So if there is no settlement why would you want to keep a case and make no money.
Turns out with the new firm that I’m with everything he said wasn’t possible is possible. They are arguing and fighting for me and trying to work with me and worker comp. They keep me in the loop. I personally think that this Mr. Miller is in over his head with cases I felt just as a number or as if he was for the other side and not mine.
I don’t think it to much to ask a lawyer to advocate for me. I felt alone. I’m sure the firm will say something to try and discredit my review but hopefully someone sees this and search around don’t settle for the first lawyer you speak with.
The insurance company denied my claim.
I contacted AJ Miller of Miller and Tourtlotte.
AJ and his staff immediatly went to work
and quickly settled my claim.
Now i can afford the surgery!
I found the entire staff at Miller and Tourtlotte to be professional, experienced, effective and caring.
I greatly appreciated the quick response
to all my communications.
AJ never left me hanging.
Dont let them make you suffer!
Call AJ
What stood out most was his professionalism—immaculate from start to finish. But beyond that, he helped me push through a situation where I was being mistreated after a serious injury. He made sure I was heard, protected, and taken seriously.
If you’re looking for someone who actually cares and delivers results, I’d recommend AJ Miller over anyone else in town. No hesitation.
Gene
I truly appreciate everything his firm did for me .
Yolanda at the front desk treated me with the up most respect and understanding when she listened to my story, and definitely didn't make me feel as though I was a statistic as the state basically did. They were very prompt in their communication.
Relaying that info to AJ really helped with that, going to bat for me! I appreciate all of AJ and his associates hard work throughout my entire process and settlement. If anyone has any questions, lack of wages, or any situation they may be in. Call AJ Miller first!
Again I appreciate AJ in closing that chapter of my life and allowing me to move forward!

It was a long road for me and I started out with a different lawyer and ultimately decided to part ways. I spoke to many lawyers but decided to go with A.J Miller and I honestly thank the lord I did!! He did what others couldn't do. I was always able to reach him, he always kept me updated and made sure everything was done in a timely matter which to me is very important! his team is nothing short of superb. Ms. Yolanda was a delight to work with along with Colette. I have nothing but praise for the representation I received!!
Thank you.
Their knowledge, insights and professionalism were very impressive.
But their genuine niceness was what impressed us most of all.
Even though it was a difficult experience and was a very stressful time in our lives, I feel like we came away from this experience better than before. And that was because of Matt and Cary, and their willingness to fight for justice on our behalf. My husband and I highly recommend Tourtlotte Law Firm!
