Murphy, who chairs the estate planning practice group, commented, “Our group works with private clients—individuals as well as multi-generational families—to preserve their assets, protect their legacies and promote their philanthropic values. We value the trust and respect they place with us. We’re honoured to be included in the HNW Guide for the work we do on behalf of our clients.”
The Chambers 2017 HNW Guide published this: The trusts and estates team at Miller Jonson advises on wealth and charitable planning for clients... “Miller Johnson is a great firm,” says an interviewee. “They have a pretty good mix of attorneys in their practice who do a variety of work, from complex domestic planning to international planning and litigation as well...”
