Steve Mills of Zemanek & Mills is hands down one of the finest attorneys I’ve ever worked with – and there have been plenty! He handled my case with compassion, expertise, attention to detail, good humor when needed, and complete professionalism. He made me feel as though I was his only client – which I know for a fact was not the case. If you are looking for a real estate attorney who puts clients first and sees you as a fellow human being in need of expert advice, advocacy, and support, Steve is your person. Thanks for everything, Mr. Mills!

Within 24 hours of talking to John and emailing him a plethora of documents, he found sufficient evidence to give me an enormous amount of relief.  Over the course of the next year he remained a steadfast source of fierce legal protection of me and my interests.  He made himself available to me as I required.  I cannot imagine how I could have made it through that extreme emotionally difficult and technically complicated process without his dedicated and resolute assistance. In the midst of it all, with dozens of attorneys involved, I felt I had the best of them as my counsel.

Part of my success as a business owner / financial advisor has been my ability to properly, respectfully communicate with my clients, rather than fighting over items of disagreement.  It came a shock when my family and I were sued over an estate matter… a suit filed by disgruntled   family members.  From beginning to end, John and Steve were in constant tough with us, listening, explaining, and guiding.  They had command of the issues of our case… testamentary capacity, the no-contest clause, and estate tax complexities.  In discovery, they professionally dismantled the story told by the other side.  They competently steered the case to a very favorable settlement.  Our family could not be happier with the outcome, professional guidance, and support John and Steve provided us.

John Zemanek and Steve Mills are two of the finest attorneys in business. I have worked with them through multiple lawsuits (a David vs. Goliath situation), from pretrial, trial and post-trial. They were compassionate with me as a client, but a force to be reckoned with in court. Most importantly, because of their combination of great legal acumen and truly caring about their clients we were victorious in all cases. I have and will continue to recommend Zemanek and Mills to the people in my life who need the legal help they provide.

For more than 25 years, we have turned to Zemanek & Mills for our real estate litigation needs.  They provide wise counsel and they get results.

I retained Steve Mills to represent me in a complicated partition lawsuit between two domestic partners.  Steve’s research and insight was invaluable in encouraging me to pursue a “Marvin” claim, where past consultations with other lawyers had dissuaded me.  I found Steve to be diligent and creative in his approach to the lawsuit, yet open and flexible to my needs and observations.  He was proactive in consulting with family law specialists when he felt he was out of his purview and was a kind, considerate, patient partner in what was a difficult and contentious process.  The case ultimately resolved in mediation where we prevailed, receiving more compensation than originally requested.  In the end, Steve proved to be the perfect attorney for such a complicated case, and I am grateful to him for his professionalism and dedication throughout.
