Miller Monroe Holton & Plyler is a boutique litigation firm focusing on complex civil disputes. While our practice areas are quite diverse, a unifying thread runs throughout our cases. We represent people and businesses who have been wronged. The breadth and diversity of our practice areas reflects the interests and strengths of our lawyers, benefits our clients, and enables us to quickly evaluate the merits of litigation. We are eager to try cases if the situation requires, but we are equally comfortable helping clients achieve efficient, fair resolutions. We are not bound by bureaucratic policies and stagnant thinking that can accompany law firms of a certain size and age. Instead, we are nimble, enthusiastic, and creative. This shows up in our willingness to consider non-traditional fee structures, utilize outside of the box strategic thinking, embrace technological efficiencies, and avoid one-size fits all case analysis. At MMHP, we enjoy practicing law together and take great pride in developing meaningful relationships with our clients, which helps us achieve outstanding results.
MMHP traces its roots back to the friendship forged between founding partners Jason Miller and Jeff Monroe during their time at UNC School of Law. Jason and Jeff hit it off on the first day of law school and, before long, the two were making jokes about starting a firm upon graduation. In 2009, that dream became a reality, as the predecessor to Miller Monroe Holton & Plyler was born. Since that time, the firm has added decades of experience by bringing on seasoned litigators William Plyler, Paul Flick, John Holton, and Will Smith as partners at the firm. The team is further rounded out by associate attorneys Rob Rader and Morgan Brown, former police detective Jennifer Garvey as a North Carolina certified paralegal, and Naomie Ngadiene as a do-it-all paralegal and legal assistant.
At MMHP we represent a wide range of clients – from public companies to local businesses to athletes and individuals – in a variety of civil disputes and matters.
Our commercial litigation team has the right combination of business and legal experience to guide you through the complex and often daunting litigation process. We work creatively to find solutions to complicated legal challenges and, when it matters most, we are willing to dig in and fight for our clients. Our attorneys have experience representing clients in the construction, financial services, information technology, health care, manufacturing, education, transportation, and real estate industries. Because we have experience navigating complex business issues, marketing strategies, and management challenges, the attorneys at Miller Monroe Holton & Plyler can offer legal advice in the context of your business’ particular needs.
Our personal injury, medical malpractice, and products liability litigators have extensive in-court litigation experience and will not shy away from a fight. When you or someone you love is permanently or seriously injured, it is critical to hire an experienced attorney who can guide you through the claims process and file a lawsuit if necessary. Having a knowledgeable, aggressive advocate in your corner can make all the difference in a case.
Our eminent domain and condemnation team has nearly a decade of experience working inside State government, both as Deputy General Counsel for the North Carolina Department of Transportation and representing the NCDOT in eminent domain matters. Now, we use that experience to represent property owners in disputes with the NCDOT and other condemning authorities. Understanding the inner workings of the largest condemning authority in the State helps us represent property owners with aggressive and well considered legal strategies.
Our sports law team features two North Carolina licensed sports agents and experience representing top level professional athletes, universities, and student-athletes.
