Testimonials
Attorney Miller assisted me with the purchase of my first home almost 7 years ago to the day, so choosing him for my mortgage refinance was an easy decision. There were many unknown’s when I started this process, yet, every question I had was answered quickly and thoroughly. Daniel’s communication with myself, my current lender, future lender and insurance company was prompt, detailed and ensured that all parties were always moving forward.
I could not have asked for a more streamlined and simple process as the home-owner/client in this project which included multiple parties. The closing was scheduled with plenty of advance notice and Attorney Miller allowed for an ample amount of time for any last minute questions and concerns. The attention to detail when reviewing the mountain of paperwork was truly exceptional.
Without a single doubt, the most professional, courteous and knowledgable attorney I have ever spoken with.

If I could give Dan and his team 100 stars, I would!!! I was so anxious about navigating the legal system and retaining full custody of my baby, especially since I have a disability. Dan helped me to keep everything friendly and fair, and helped me and my ex agree on all of the arrangements. Then he navigated all of the barriers and got everything I wanted approved by the court. He was responsive, sensitive, and prompt, and even helped my ex, who didn’t have representation, to complete and file his paperwork. He went over every line with each of us to make sure we understood everything. And all for a price I could afford!!! Thank you so much, Dan!!

Dan has truly been the most amazing person to deal with. Not only is he very professional and super knowledgeable but is very caring and compassionate and handles situations accordingly and in a timely manner. Dan handled my divorce a couple years ago and assisted me in closing on my first home. He currently handles my real estate as well and I love that he’s always one call or text away and never turns his back on you. I am super pleased with Dan and I would highly recommend him!!!!

Guardian Ad Litem / Best Interests of the Minor
GUARDIAN AD LITEM / BEST INTERESTS OF THE MINOR: In the State of Connecticut, frequently children go without a voice during the divorce/custody dispute process. Attorney Miller has been a State of Connecticut certified GAL since 2010. He has had the important task of assisting children of all ages. A Guardian Ad Litem for a child is an officer of the court appointed to protect the child’s interests without being bound by the child’s expressed preferences. When determining what is in a child’s best interests, Connecticut states the Courts must examine many factors, including:
Conn. Gen. Stats § 46b-56(c) (2011)
The temperament and developmental needs of the child;
The capacity and the disposition of the parents to understand and meet the needs of the child;
Any relevant and material information obtained from the child, including the informed preferences of the child;
The wishes of the child’s parents as to custody;
The past and current interaction and relationship of the child with each parent, the child’s siblings and any other person who may significantly affect the best interests of the child;
The willingness and ability of each parent to facilitate and encourage such continuing parent-child relationship between the child and the other parent as is appropriate, including compliance with any court orders;
Any manipulation by or coercive behavior of the parents in an effort to involve the child in the parents’ dispute;
The ability of each parent to be actively involved in the life of the child;
The child’s adjustment to his or her home, school and community environments;
The length of time that the child has lived in a stable and satisfactory environment and the desirability of maintaining continuity in such environment, provided the court may consider favorably a parent who voluntarily leaves the child’s family home pendente lite in order to alleviate stress in the household;
The stability of the child’s existing or proposed residences, or both;
The mental and physical health of all individuals involved, except that a disability of a proposed custodial parent or other party, in and of itself, shall not be determinative of custody unless the proposed custodial arrangement is not in the best interests of the child;
The child’s cultural background;
The effect on the child of the actions of an abuser, if any domestic violence has occurred between the parents or between a parent and another individual or the child;
Whether the child or a sibling of the child has been abused or neglected, as defined respectively in section 46b-120; and
whether the party satisfactorily completed participation in a parenting education program established pursuant to section 46b-69b. The court is not required to assign any weight to any of the factors that it considers.
