Primary Practice:

Ben Miller is a trial lawyer whose practice is focused on defending against personal injury and wrongful death litigation, most often in cases arising from accidents involving commercial motor vehicles.  He has extensive experience with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations, as well as new legislation and case law in Texas that have significantly impacted the defense in commercial motor vehicle litigation.  Additionally, Mr. Miller is frequently called upon in the moments following serious accidents to lead post-accident investigations, including driver and witness interviews, evidence preservation, and coordination with law enforcement. 

“ For a corporate defendant, being aggressive and active right from the start, especially in personal injury defense, is the most effective way to take control of a case away from the other side. and will ensure either an early and cost-effective resolution or superior preparation if the case must be tried. ”
