Marcia Miller
@marciamiller
I’m a litigation attorney and partner focused on personal injury, medical malpractice, and products liability.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I’m a litigation attorney and partner who prepare “legal memoranda and supporting documents” for all levels of litigation. My work includes arguing motions and appeals, supported by deep legal research across personal injury, medical malpractice, and products liability.
Before partnering, I built my legal foundation through clerkship and hands-on writing practice. As a judicial clerk, I conducted “extensive independent research” and drafted opinions for publication, evaluating arguments and making disposition recommendations in weekly bench memoranda.
I also bring program-building and teaching experience to the table. As an Assistant Director, I developed a Health Law Institute and a Compliance Certificate Program, supervising staff and student workers while managing budgets and coordinating curricula, symposia, registrations, professors, and materials.
In addition to litigation, I’ve coached others to improve legal research and writing—tutoring associates and delivering workshops on legal research and writing. I’m energized by the full cycle of advocacy, from strategy and motion practice to appellate writing and continued learning through adjunct teaching.
