"Joe was recommended to me by a Defense Attorney whom I trust and respect as 'the one I would go to if it was my Divorce.'...Joe was attentive, concerned, and supportive, and more importantly, was perceptive to the attack plan of the opposing Counsel and how to counteract it. He also was able to uncover deceptions and expose false statements made by my Ex during deposition. We ended up settling our case, and although we did not go to trial, I was able to walk away with the things that mattered most to me and he helped me engineer a plan to cut the chains that had been laid out to bind me financially to her for the next 6 years. If you are the 'good guy' in a Divorce, you can't do better than Joe."

 "My experience with the legal services of Scott J. Milner, have been extremely positive. Scott is an excellent attorney, and one I would highly recommend to everybody. This past year, in the midst of a very bitter divorce, I retained the legal services of Scott Milner. After experiencing some very, poor representation from my first attorney, I had to change directions midstream and search for new legal counsel. The stress and anxiety of a divorce such as mine was very high, and hoping to find a good attorney to move forward left me very apprehensive as to which way to turn. My first attorney was abrasive and rude, disorganized, and did not keep me informed or even consult with me on very important issues in my case. This led to larger legal expenses, the loss of very crucial visitation time with my 13 year old daughter, and ultimately a high amount of additional emotional stress. But after my first consultation with Scott, I was relieved to know I had made the correct decision to retain his services. Scott was the exact opposite of my prior attorney. Scott is a highly professional and ethical attorney. He was extremely well organized, staying in constant contact with me, and was always available to patiently answer any questions or concerns I may have had. Scott fought forcefully for my rights and pursued all possibilities for my case, while all the while keeping me informed of all my options. In court, Scott is nothing sort of brilliant! He is a very articulate speaker, and presented my case with forcefulness and precision. On the personal side, Scott is a good family man, who genuinely cared about my case and desired a good outcome for me and my daughter. Scott is a great defender of father's rights, and because of this I was able to regain lost visitation time with my daughter. Moreover, Scott was able to articulate to the court, the inappropriate behavior of my ex-wife regarding my relationship with my daughter, and to me personally, which led to a very stern reprimand from the judge to my ex-wife, and an emotional vindication for me and everyone who knows and loves me. In addition, his competent legal work led to financial favor for me with the court, and an equitable division of assets and debts. Since my divorce was finalized, Scott has not abandoned his relationship with me, and continues to be available to me for further legal advice and help. Also, the entire staff at the office of the Milner Law Firm is reliable, competent, caring and responsive. I can't say enough, nor thank them enough for their help in a very dark and stressful period in my life. In the future, should legal aid become necessary again, I will not hesitate to contact Scott Milner and the Milner Law firm to represent my family's personal interests. I would highly recommend that anyone who needs the same sort of legal counsel quickly retain the services of Scott J. Milner."

"Jami has helped me so much in my divorce/child custody battle for my daughter...I couldn't recommend her more. Even when I didn't deserve her help, and may have been sabotaging my own case - she was there to help me through the most difficult time of my life. I have been brought back to court four times now by my ex - and Jami completely squashes his case every time. Ms. Milner is extremely professional and organized - as well as overwhelming with her skill and delivery in and out of the courtroom."

"I recommend Scott Milner with the highest of recommendations. Scott is such a professional and truly cares about his client and has such a tenacity and dedication and commitment to doing his best. My custody case was both unusual and very difficult and required three days in a court room and so much work in discovery and depositions, etc. Scott was the best attorney I could have had. He is so proficient, extremely bright, and just so likeable. It was such a comfort to have his expertise in my corner and I will be eternally grateful."

 "Joe Milner is the most honest and knowledgable attorney I know. He handled my divorce in a caring, forthright manner and was highly responsive. He demonstrated years of experience in handling family law. I would highly recommend Joe Milner." 

"I came to Jami in a very difficult predicament.  Jami warned me that it was going to be extremely hard to win a relocation case that required the mother to move, even if it meant returning to the city where we had lived together with our child.  However, something told me that if it could be done, Jami could do it.  My case required immediate action that was crucial in establishing jurisdiction for the case in my county, followed by discovery, mediation, and finally, a bench trial.  Throughout the entire process, Jami was thoroughly engaged...always prepared, always professional, always exploring ways to win my case.  Critically important to me was her accessibility.  On more than one occasion, I needed immediate advice, straight talk, or reassurance, and she gave it to me...and, she was always right.  I will never be able to thank her enough.  My daughter lives about a half a mile from me today because I hired Jami.  It’s as simple as that."

 "If only I had known Scott Milner when I first needed legal help!! The previous lawyer on my case was ill-prepared and distracted by personal issues during two previous court appearances; the outcome was not favorable and to make it worse the bill appeared to be 'padded'. The Milner Law Firm was recommended to me as a very respected firm by another Austin lawyer. My experience with the firm, and Scott Milner in particular, was everything I could have hoped for. Scott assessed the situation and his prudent advice was based on his knowledge of both the law and his practical experience in family court. He was very clear in communications and responsive to my questions. At a time when a person needs an ally on their side, Scott is absolutely dependable. I always felt that he sincerely cared about my case. By the way, Scott was successful in resolving the legal matter! And, when I checked the bill, everything was justified (i.e., no padding)!"

 "Scott Milner recently represented a good friend of mine in a very lengthy and complex divorce (custody and community property issues). As a professional paralegal, I felt that I was able to view Mr. Milner's work on a personal and professional level. During the entire case, Mr. Milner presented himself with integrity. I feel strongly that Mr. Milner is an advocate for father's rights, as he fought diligently for a fair and equitable outcome for my friend, the petitioner. As many of us already know, it's not easy finding a strong and ethical trial attorney. After witnessing first hand Mr. Milner in court for the trial of my friend's case, I can honestly say that Mr. Milner never compromised his values or his client's rights as he fought assiduously while representing my friend. Regardless if you're the father or mother in your case, Mr. Milner will protect your parental rights, as his primary concern is in the best interest of the child. I would refer Mr. Milner to anyone seeking legal justice and superior representation."


"Joe represented me in post-divorce mediation related to child custody and I was very pleased with the overall outcome. He is well respected in his field and knows how to get things done."


"Scott is a very dedicated & skilled attorney that I couldn't recommend more! He is honest, articulate, and really cares about his clients. I feel fortunate to have had him on my side through a long, difficult custody battle that has gone on for almost 2 years now. He is very knowledgeable in family law, professional, & it seems like he has been practicing for a lot longer than he actually has. My ex has brought me to court coming up on ten times in the past few years & each time I know that Scott will reassure me and know how to help. I don't know what I would do without the Milner Law Firm & hope that if anyone does have to go through a divorce/custody battle, that they have Scott on their side!"

"I found Scott Milner to be an extremely bright and articulate lawyer! He is well versed in Family Law and was able to handle a very demanding case. He demonstrates excellent qualities that every lawyer would be wise to possess: exceptional listening skills, empathetic, compassionate, non-judgmental, fights for father's rights, solid litigator, and is able to seperate the facts from the extraneous matter. I would highly recommend Scott and The Milner Law Firm for any family law needs."

"Scott Milner is an enthusiastic, talented and knowledgeable family law attorney. I feel he is much more experienced than his age or resume might suggest. I have enjoyed his services very much, and will highly recommend Scott Milner."


"I interviewed numerous attorneys before I selected Jami. Most of the other attorneys informed me that "men dont win in Travis County - you're going to lose this case." Jami was honest and told me that she would fight for me, but that there were no guarantees. We went to Court and Won!!!! She was diligent in her approach to the case, efficient and effective in the courtroom, and a true delight to work with. Her approach was to "do whats right for the kids" and we Won! I would recommend Jami to both men as well as women...she's a terrific human being on top of being an exceptional attorney."

"Scott was very helpful resolving my legal issues. He worked diligently to advance my case. Thanks Scott."
