Miller & Steiert, PC

The law firm of Miller & Steiert, PC traces its origins to Martin P. Miller, who resided in Arapahoe County and Littleton, Colorado. Martin Miller, originally from the East Coast of the United States, enlisted in the US Army infantry during World War II to escape his circumstances. After being critically injured during his military service, First Lieutenant Miller returned to the United States and recuperated at Fitzsimmons Army Hospital. Instead of returning to the East Coast, Miller chose to remain in the Denver metropolitan area and attend the University of Denver and the Westminster Law School. He graduated Phi Beta Kappa and was admitted to the Colorado Bar in the same year. Miller practiced law for over 50 years and remained dedicated to the law and his clients until the end of his life.

Miller began his law practice in 1951 when he was 31 years old. He was elected as Colorado's youngest District Judge of the Arapahoe, Adams, and Jefferson County District Courts at the beginning of his practice. After serving as a Judge, Governor McNichols invited Miller to become the first District Attorney for the newly established Eighteenth Judicial District in 1959. Miller served as the D.A. for Arapahoe and Douglas Counties for ten years, during which time he founded the Law Office of Martin P. Miller due to numerous referrals from satisfied clients.

After many years of public service, Miller focused on his private practice full time. His law practice covered a broad range of areas, including business law, corporate law, criminal law, probate law, family law, and real estate law. Miller believed that as a lawyer, he had an obligation to give back to the community that had given so much to him. He spent more than 20% of his time representing clients who were unable to afford legal representation.

Miller practiced solo for 26 years before bringing on attorneys to assist on a case-by-case basis. In 1975, Robert Leher, the son of one of Miller's close friends, became Miller's first and only partner for a decade. Miller's eldest son, Michael Miller, joined the law firm in 1980 when it was known as Miller & Leher and became a partner about four years later. Katy Miller, Miller's daughter, then joined the firm in 1985, followed by Robert Steiert in 1986, a family friend who had been Mike's best friend growing up. Katy and Bob became the firm's third and fourth partners in the late 1980s.

When Robert Leher's retirement approached in the early 1990s, the practice operated as Miller, Leher & Steiert for about a year before dropping Leher's name in 1993 and becoming Miller & Steiert. Although the name of the firm has changed slightly over the past 50 years, its commitment to its clients has remained consistent by offering services in various fields such as commercial, criminal, domestic, employment, and personal injury law.

Today, Miller & Steiert has 11 attorneys, including two of Miller's children, and several staff and paralegals. A new generation still fights for underdogs, and the Miller name continues to anchor a practice that has touched thousands of Colorado lives for over half a century.
