Our firm's philosophy is
simple: Above all, we
are dedicated to excellence in client service. Our purpose is to provide
high-quality legal services to our clients. Taylor, Miller combines a large firm's
resources
and techniques with the personal concern and cost-conscious
attitudes of a smaller firm. Specialization in three different practice
areas, rapid
response to client needs and requests, proper case management and a realistic,
reasonable and manageable legal fee structure allow us to provide our clients
with first-rate, pragmatic and effective representation.
Specialization
Successful
legal representation requires specialized
knowledge, expertise and experience. Taylor Miller specializes in Insurance
Defense, Corporate Law and Estate Planning. Learn more about our services in these particular
areas on the Practice Areas page.
Responsiveness
We believe communication between the attorney and client
is the cornerstone of a good attorney/client relationship. Our attorneys are
committed to providing prompt and effective responses to our clients'
needs. Our clients are kept apprised of all significant developments that
occur in a particular matter. We provide status reports to our
clients on a regular basis to ensure the client is continuously advised
of the status of a file.
Case
Management
To maximize the desired level of communication between
attorney and client and to ensure proper and effective handling of a file, each
new matter is assigned to a partner who has the overall responsibility for that
case. The responsible partner and an associate who is also assigned to
the file are charged with knowing the status of the case, keeping the client
updated on the status, notifying the client of all significant developments and
ensuring the matter is handled appropriately and in a cost-effective
manner.
Legal
Fee Structure
We believe that all our clients should know, in advance,
the method of billing and the anticipated cost of representation. This policy
enables our clients to accurately assess the appropriate use of their resources
and the effectiveness of legal representation. We also provide our clients with
prompt and detailed billing for continuous evaluation of the cost/benefit
relationship involved in a particular matter. Our automated financial and
billing systems make this possible.
We are cognizant of our clients' concerns regarding protracted litigation, which
can prove quite costly. When appropriate, we explore ways to
conclude litigation early to reduce the costs of discovery and trial,
including various forms of alternative dispute resolution. We share
with our clients a desire to control litigation costs while providing the
highest quality of legal services possible.
