The Law Offices of Daniel J Miller

Family Law

Divorce
I had a long and exhausting divorce and would like to thank Jeff Blair, Lindsey, and the whole team. I would recommend them to anyone going through a contested divorce
Child Custody and Visitation
I must say court was very nerve racking leading up to the hearing about visitation and custody. Mr. Miller was great and I was very happy after court. I highly recommend Mr. Miller and more affordable compared to other attorneys.
Paternity
In 2001, Miller began his own firm and now practice law in all Virginia courts, both federal and state. Due to his ceaseless efforts and passion to represent clients, he has been selected for inclusion into several professional legal organizations, including the Top 100 Trial Lawyers for Criminal Defense Lawyers in 2015. Miller also expanded his repertoire of practice to include family law cases stemming from Virginia domestic relations laws, such as divorce, child custody and support, domestic violence, and paternity cases.
Guardianship
Tanya joined the Firm as a family law paralegal in 2017.Â Although she has worked in the legal field since 2005, she has worked exclusively in the family law specialty since 2014.Â Tanya earned her BA from Old Dominion University (Go Monarchs!) and her MBA from Regent University (Go Royals!).Â She enjoys the multi-faceted nature of family law but finds her niche in contested litigation.Â Tanya uses her education and skills to work on difficult matters involving guardianships, support, and equitable distribution.Â
Child Abuse
Our client was charged with felony child neglect when his three- year old daughter appeared at CHKD with unexplained injuries to the side of her face. The Commonwealth’s expert witness, a doctor of forensics opined that the injuries could not have occurred in any way other than by blunt force trauma at the hands of another individual. Based upon cross-examination and direct testimony as offered by our client we were able to debunk this theory. The Court dismissed the charge.

Criminal Law

Criminal Defense
Attorney Daniel J. Miller is a seasoned Criminal Defense & Family Law Attorney in Virginia Beach who approaches every case with experience and integrity.
DUI/DWI
Blair relocated to Virginia Beach in 2021 to be closer to family. In 2021, Blair joined the Chesapeake Public Defenderâ€™s office where he tried many cases from DUIs to serious felonies. Blair joined our law office in 2022, where he helps our clients through all family law matters. In his free time, Blair spends time at the beach with his wife, Amy, their two children, and their family dog, Scipio.
Traffic Violations
Our client was charged with driving under the influence of alcohol with a.07 BAC. Under Virginia law.08 and above creates a presumption of intoxication at the time of operation whereas.05 to.07 can be used as evidence in total but does not create a presumption either way. On cross-examination, the officer admitted that the Defendant was nervous during the testing period which may have led to some of his mishaps on the cognitive end of the field sobriety tests. Furthermore, although the Defendant did not do everything that the officer instructed, the Defendant's mishaps on the field sobriety tests that tested dexterity could have been attributed to the boots he was wearing and the slight slope on the portion of roadway that the officer had the Defendant perform the tests. Driving under the influence reduced to reckless driving.
Sex Crimes
Our client was charged with several counts of statutory rape and was facing life in prison. The evidence presented by the commonwealth was based solely on the alleged victim's statements alleging that the events occurred sometime within a two year time period, that the first complaint made was several months after the alleged incident occurred, that the complaint was not filed until a couple years after the alleged incident and that at the time the incident occurred my client was in a supervisory position over the alleged victim (i.e., a baby sitter). We presented both medical evidence and alibi evidence showing that our client's version of the events, which were in direct contradiction to the alleged victims were more credible. All charges were dismissed.
Robbery
Our client was charged with robbery. This case was nolle prossed because the victim right before taking the stand admitted that she could not identify the defendant as the perpetrated and the detective confirmed.
Theft
Misdemeanors
Our client was charged with four counts of distribution of drugs to minors (felony) and two counts of contributing to delinquency of a minor (misdemeanor). The commonwealth could not prove that marijuana recovered from his car was the same substance given to the minors. At the very least all they could show was that it was a cigarette. The Defendant was ultimately convicted of one Count of delinquency of a minor.
Embezzlement
Our client was charged with embezzlement from a former employer on the basis that she, as the bookkeeper had written checks out on the account to herself that were allegedly not authorized but signed by the owner of the company. The commonwealth agreed to nolle pross the matters after being shown that they failed to meet all of the elements of embezzlement. Case dismissed.
Drug Crimes
Our client was charged with possession of marijuana first offense. The City of Virginia Beach presented evidence indicating that the officer pulled the Defendant on the pretense that he saw the Defendant smoking what he believed was suspected marijuana. On cross-examination the officer admitted that their windows were up and other than seeing the Defendant smoke he could not tell whether what they were smoking was a cigarette or a marijuana joint. The charge of possession of marijuana was dismissed since the officer failed to articulate reasonable suspicion that the Defendant was in the midst of smoking pot.
Assault
People often file assault charges out of fear, anger, and even revenge. Perceived threats and accidental contact can be elevated to assault or charges, especially when the alleged victim has an agenda.
Juvenile Crimes
Have you recently been arrested for a criminal offense ? Our criminal attorneys can help you navigate the complexities of the legal system and Virginia criminal court with a sense of ease and confidence. We will walk with you every step of the way and provide you with knowledgeable legal advice and representation. We fight charges of DWI, drug crimes, juvenile crimes, domestic violence, assault and battery, and more.
Kidnapping
In the past several years, we have successfully represented clients in protective order hearings, CPS complaints, brandishing of firearms, domestic violence (assault and battery), violation of bond conditions, violation of protective order hearings, child neglect, child endangerment, child abuse, destruction of property, drug possession, breaking and entering and parental kidnapping.
Manslaughter
Our client was charged with Involuntary Manslaughter (felony), Hit and Run (felony) reckless driving, and driving on suspended third after having struck and killed a pedestrian on a wet and rainy night in the city of Norfolk. The Defendant got nervous and fled the scene. We were able to prove that the Commonwealth could not pin the death on our client since the decedent was not in a cross walk and that our client’s inability to stop was likely not a cause of death, since the victim’s passing was almost immediate. Our client plead to hit and run and driving on suspended third offense. He was facing 17 years but received 4 months and 10 days to serve.
Prostitution
Extortion
Our client was charged with extortion by threat charge, a felony in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The complainant was indicating that the Defendant falsely accused him, the owner of a tanning salon, with peeping into her tanning bed. The evidence would have indicated that the Defendant upon leaving the tanning salon called the complainant and said that unless he paid her $2500 she was going to call the police and charge him with peeping tom. The Complainant never paid and the Defendant brought the charge of peeping tom against the Complainant. The parties signed an accord and Satisfaction and the charge against both my client and the complainant were nolle prossed by the Court.
Hit and Run
Our client was charged with hit and run and three counts of driving on a suspended license - all charges were dismissed because they couldn't prove that he was operating the vehicle at the time of the accident since they pulled him over long after the accident occurred and they couldn't prove notice on any of the suspended license charges.
