- ★★★★★Very Helpful

Miller and Miller is an excellent group of folk. They were very helpful to me and my family at a very difficult time for us. They addressed all of our concerns and get us informed of the progress of our case. I cannot recommend them enough.
- ★★★★★Brooklyn's Best
JJ · criminal defense ·
I was recommended to Mr. Miller by a friend when I had some trouble with the police a while back. The police had grabbed me off the street and arrested me for a crime I did not commit - and when I asked to speak to a lawyer - they beat me up so badly that I wound up in the hospital for two weeks. I cannot recommend anyone more highly than Mr. Miller as a top flight criminal and civil attorney. Not only did he prove my innocence, now we are negotiating a substantial civil settlement with the city for the injuries caused by the police. This is why I call Andrew Miller Brooklyn's Best.

I had been arrested for crime I did not commit. Nobody believed me, not even my legal aid attorney. I was in jail for over year and nothing seemed to be getting done. A friend recommended that I contact Mr. Miller. The first time I spoke to Mr. Miller he gave me hope. We went to trial and won an d now I am free! I owe everything to Mr. Miller.
- ★★★★★A True Gem

I was looking for a lawyer to help me with the sale of my first house. I did know where to go so I did an internet search and found Mr. Miller's web site. It was really informative, so I gave him a call. Mr. Miller was terrific and since that time he has been my whole family's attorney. When my w ife was injured in a car accident, thank God he was there to help us; when my aunt died he got us through probate; when my son got divorced his firm made sure that things were settled in a fair and reasonable manner. In short, if you are looking for a true family law firm in the heart of Brooklyn, New York, you can ask for none better.
- ★★★★★Confidence in Mr. Miller

Mr. Miller and his firm were great in assisting me in a recent criminal case where I was wrongly accused. He not only believed in my innocence, but proved it beyond a doubt! I will always be grateful to him and his staff for helping straighten out my life.
- ★★★★★Great Listener who Cares

Paul took out the time to genuinely listen to my issue, and gave me honest, straight forward feedback on how I should proceed. Although Paul chose not to take my case, he still provided options and referrals not leaving me empty and nowhere to turn. He had compassion, legal knowledge and rational exp lanations.

I hired Martin to take care of a contract that had to be completed in an extremely short amount of time. Martin explained everything in the contract with patience and ensured that I, as his client, was completely protected. I will definitely be a repeat client and highly recommend his law firm.

“The best law firm around!” I was represented better than I could have ever imagined by a masterful Attorney. My needs were put first and I always received straight-forward sound legal advice. My doubts were always put to ease and the process was always explained. Mr. Wolf fought hard for me and went above and beyond and ensured a great outcome. I couldn't have asked for a better law firm or attorney. “Thank you, Mr. Wolf !!!”
- ★★★★★Knowledgeable and Experianced
Barry · business law ·
I had a contract done by Martin. I was extremely short on time and the deal was very complicated. Not only did he get a contract done ASAP but included clauses that saved me a tremendous amount of money on the deal. I highly recommend this law firm and there is no question I am a client for life with everything I need. Thank you very much Martin I really appreciate everything.

Patience · employment law ·
Every Lawyer Turned Me Away—Except Geoffrey Schotter. When my employer, New York State, broke me under extreme conditions, pushing me into an acute mental health crisis, Geoffrey Schotter was the one who stepped in. I had already reached out to multiple attorneys. Every single one turned me awa y. Not because my case wasn’t real, but because it was too difficult, too risky, too untested. Geoffrey was the last lawyer I contacted before I was ready to represent myself. He was my last hope. And, as it turned out, he was the most important one. He didn’t just take my case. He examined every detail, anticipated every counterargument, and built something undeniable. He refused to let my suffering be dismissed as “just part of the job.” Beyond Representation: A Relentless Pursuit of Justice What sets Geoffrey apart is that he doesn’t just argue a case, he builds it with precision. Every possible counterargument? Anticipated and dismantled. Every potential weak point? Reinforced before it could be challenged. By the time we got to summation, there was no shaky ground left to stand on. And he didn’t just take one route; he gave my case multiple paths to victory. A clear argument for my claim as a work-related accident. A strategic foundation for establishing it as an occupational disease. A preemptive dismantling of any claim that my breakdown was a lawful personnel action. Each argument stood on its own, but together, they created something undeniable. Sharp, Focused, and Completely Unapologetic Geoffrey can be snappy, short, frustrated, and even frustrating at times. But that’s what it takes to push the law forward. When you’re forcing the system to acknowledge its failures, when you’re fighting for something that hasn’t been fought before, there’s no time for hesitation or unnecessary pleasantries. He operates at a level of focus, intensity, and precision that makes lesser arguments collapse before they even begin. He doesn’t waste words. He doesn’t waste time. He gets to the point, and the point is razor-sharp. If you’re looking for a lawyer who will soften the truth or go through the motions, he’s not your guy. But if you want someone who will force the opposition to answer for every single thing they overlooked, dismissed, or ignored; who will push through legal barriers most attorneys wouldn’t even think to challenge; this is the lawyer you need. Staying Three Steps Ahead of the Opposition Geoffrey didn’t just respond; he dictated the pace. The defense barely had room to move because he forced them to confront their own failures in a way they couldn’t ignore. He took their best possible arguments and preemptively turned them against them. And it wasn’t just about me. He made sure the court saw the bigger picture: the systemic failure, the pattern of harm, the need for change. This case was never just about compensation. It was about holding a system accountable for what it had done to its workers. The Lawyer You Call When You Refuse to Be Dismissed This isn’t just about winning a case. It’s about fighting for what’s right in a system that hopes people like me give up. Geoffrey didn’t just refuse to let me give up; he made sure I had the legal firepower to fight back. I walked into this case expecting to fight alone. Instead, I found someone who fought with me for justice, for accountability, and for every worker who has ever been told that suffering is just part of the job. The work of protecting healthcare workers, public servants, all of us is far from finished. The fight does not end in the courtroom. The law does not evolve without those who challenge its limits. Geoffrey Schotter is not just a lawyer; he is proof that the battle for workers’ rights is still worth fighting.
- ★★★★★Supportive, competent, no nonsense and caring lawyer

I recently had the pleasure of working with Scotter and Millican Law Firm, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. Mr Schotter was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to my needs throughout the entire process, even when I felt like giving up. Mr Scotter kept me informed and involved at every step; his expertise helped to achieve a successful outcome in my case. I highly recommend Schotter and Millican Law Firm to anyone in need of legal representation. He truly went above and beyond for me, and I am extremely grateful for his help.
- ★★★★★Exemplary Attorney

Geoff is the man! This guy does not quit. His ethics and experience combined with his passion for winning gives him and edge on the competition. After 7 years and much assistance with my matter and others, we obtained our settlement. The man is brilliant. Highly recommended. You won't be let down
- ★★★★★AGGRESSIVE, YET TACTFUL AND RELENTLESS
Shaun · litigation ·
Geoffrey Schotter was referred to me by several individuals whom stated successful outcomes. I have a complicated case against many Defendents and New York State and despite the deep pockets that N.Y.S. has to hire the best, Mr. Schotter continues to prevail on all of our Motions. We are now at the c onclusion of the matter, having survived Summary Judgment and are well prepared and confident for trial. This guy WINS!
- ★★★★★An Attorney that Cares and Wins!
Wendy · employment law ·
I can not sing high enough praise for Geoffrey and the work he did on my workers compensation case. My case was 6 years old and had been basically kicked aside from a previous attorney. Within a couple of months, he had a new hearing date and got everything set where it should be. And now, he settled it in less than a month for more than I asked for. If you need an attorney that will fight, win and truly care for your case, Geoffrey is the man! Schotter Millican, LLP returned every phone call, answered every question and truly made me feel like I was there only client. If I ever have another issue, Geoffrey Schotter will be my attorney.
