Working with Jay and choosing him for representation was one of the best decisions I've made. He kept me well informed throughout the process and was also very responsive to any questions I had, regardless of how trivial they may have been. He's clearly a player in the court room and very well respected. If you're in a 'situation', call Jay, he's worth it. - Dismissed - 6/19/2023
Beware! I have never dealt with such incompetence from a legal counselor in my life. I hired Attorney Milligan to help me with a few criminal cases I had received in a short period of time last summer. James did not take the proper time to go over the cases with me, and our only “meeting” before my trial date was about ten minutes long, where all James did was reassure me that I was not going to be incarcerated and that he had devised a bulletproof plea deal that would end up working in our favor. He was extremely difficult to get ahold of, and all he did was fill me with false hope for the outcome of my trial. James went on a vacation during the week of the trial, and sent his associate to court with me. His associate stood there the entire time the judge and PO berated and belittled me, shaking his head and looking down at the ground like he had already been beaten before the argument began. He did little to nothing to defend me, and the plea was rejected. I was incarcerated for three months. I believe if I had stronger legal counsel this could have been avoided I was very disappointed in the representation James provided to me. When my next court date came up (a date James was aware of the entire time) he was on yet ANOTHER vacation, and out of the country, in Japan. How do you run a successful business without being present for your clients? I do not understand what is going on with this law office, but it seems like Attorney Milligan has taken up early retirement. When I was having a hard time contacting him from jail, my mother called him to ask why he had left the country during the time we had hired him for, he raised his voice at her and was very rude to her, citing that he should be able to vacation whenever he wanted. As a business owner I do agree with this, but I would NEVER deceive my clients the way that he did to me. If I had travel plans I would refer my clients to a more appropriate office that could actually provide the work that was being paid for. After sending attorney Milligan a small fortune, I was left to basically fend for myself throughout my legal battle. He did call and apologize to my mother for the way he spoke to her, and agreed to refund us our money, as he recognized that he did a horrible job. The kick in the face was when he sent us a measly $1,000 back, which was pocket change compared to the money we sent him to have fun on vacation while I basically represented myself. Attorney Milligan has clearly checked out in terms of responsibility and accountability for his law office. It seems that he no longer cares about his clients, or the way his business is run. Very disappointing. Google ads declaring yourself “The top DUI attorney in MA” will only work for so long, until people figure out that it’s all a smoke screen to take their money and run. I am much happier with my current legal counsel, and the difference has been night and day. I cannot believe I put up with Attorney Milligan’s antics for as long as I did. - 5/19/2023
Jay is the absolute best attorney out there! Very patient, very informative, and he knows what he is doing. Jay is confident in his abilities and it shows. No words can express how thankful I am for everything Jay has done. Handled not one but two of my cases and was successful in both. He is top notch! - 8/19/2023
I cannot recommend Jay and his team enough. He represented me at my Show Cause hearing and I had a favorable outcome. It took the Clerk Magistrate not even three minutes to determine "no probable cause." Well worth hiring, Jay! - 3/20/2024
Despite enduring a 9-month long process, I am so glad I chose to work with Attorney Milligan. James is a well-spoken, well-researched man that shows up to court ready to win. Although I had moments of doubt at times, I truly could not have been happier with the work he did for me. Not only was James a 10/10 in court, but he helped me understand every step of the process and was realistic throughout it all. Even when I felt unsure, he was able to step up and work everything out in my favor. Seriously worth every penny! I plan to keep Attorney Milligan in my contacts (though I hope not to have to use him again!) If you are looking for someone to represent you in an OUI case, look no further. You really could not ask for a better lawyer….Not GUILTY - 6/19/2023
Attorney James Milligan came into our lives after one of the worst days of our lives. We got into an accident, and my boyfriend was accused of being under the influence, for which he was arrested. Attorney Milligan was called the next day for a consult. From the moment we first met him, until the last moment of trial, Mr. Milligan displayed kindness and compassion towards our family and situation. Throughout the entire ordeal he was patient with us, and explained in detail what would be happening next. He genuinely cared about all of us, giving us comfort and reassurance. We knew we had picked the right man for the task ahead of us. On trial day Attorney Milligan came prepared, and we won the case! Not Guilty! I would highly recommend Attorney James Milligan to anyone. He is a shark in the courtroom! Anyone would be lucky to have him in their corner! Thank you for all you do, Attorney Milligan! Now we are able to move on with our lives! Have a great New Year! -Jill G. - 1/05/2024
James Milligan has been a great attorney to me and my husband when it came to my case, I was worried especially since I’ve been dealing with a loss in my family. James reassured me that he would get this case dismissed and the burden would be lifted from my shoulders. And he did just that , he’s always been great with communication regarding my case and any changes regarding it. I would recommend my family and friends to Jay! Realmente es muy bueno y excelente Abogado muy profesional y te ofrece mucha confianza y seguridad 100% recomendado para toda la comunidad Hispana y también te ofrece mucha honestidad. - 1/19/2024

We had a total of 3 cases and Jay was the guy to dismiss all of them, Jay has the confidence that he would beat these cases which made me and my wife believe in the confidence we had no regrets hiring Jay as our attorney. Wonderful guy and very professional. He always responds back in a timely manner and shows up on time for court dates I would recommend him to all my friends and family !

If you are just scrolling by and looking for a lawyer then let this be the message that influences you to choose Jay Milligan; I came to Jay with a case he probably doesn’t get too often. A case where probably 7/10 people would not get away with. When I could’ve easily switched lawyers, Jay Milligan showed extreme confidence in getting a positive outcome, at the end of the day everything was put to bed. I went with my gut and trusted Jay and it paid off. Hopefully this review gives you confidence in picking Jay Milligan as your lawyer. Thank you Jay. - 8/19/2023
As international student in USA, having DIU in your record would be one of the worst thing that can happen to anyone. Despite of enduring 1 year 6 month long process, I am very glad choosing Attorney Milligan to represent me in the court. From the first day I met Mr Milligan, he explained me every step of process with details to understand the consequences and possible outcomes of the case. To simple put, James is a well-spoken, well experienced man who has confident to fight the case till the end based on the facts he has. Mr Milligan and his team is super responsive and they answered all my questions and concerns in very short period of time. James Milligan is 10/10 attorney, and it was one of the best decisions I have made to choose James for my representation. I highly recommend everybody if you want a professional, truthworthy and patient attorney, James Milligan is the best choice you have! - 9/29/2023
