day in Atlanta at the Georgia Bar building. During the interview
there were around 20 members from the Judicial Nominating Com-
mission on one side of a long conference room table asking questions
and I was at the other side of the table having to address each ques-
tion,” said Hightower.
“The nominees were scaled down to the short list (four), and each of
us had a one-on-one interview with the Governor. After the Gover-
nor selected me for this great honor, I had to immediately jump into
action because I had pending cases in our law firm. In addition, the
Superior Court Judge who initially retired from his position did so
in January so the Coweta Judicial Circuit was in need of having this
position filled quickly,” Hightower stated. “An attorney’s name and
reputation is extremely important, especially in a small town. I could
not leave Mike with this load of clients that were depending on me,
and Miller & Hightower to represent them. I contacted each client
personally and followed our conversation up with a letter reiterating
the situation and their options,” Hightower added. “Almost every
client was very understanding, and many expressed true excitement
for Dusty and his new position. Further, once it was explained that
Chris and I would be handling their case moving forward, the clients
knew they were still in good hands, and many clients already knew
Chris and were excited to have him handle their case,” added Miller.
“In public service your goal is to put others before yourself. Mike
Miller, as a Douglasville City Councilman, and I as a State Repre-
sentative have tried to live our lives and run our firm my putting
others before ourselves. I know Mike and Chris will keep that same
philosophy moving forward as Miller & Wynn, “noted Hightower.
Miller & Wynn assists clients regardless of the size or value of the
case. They consider themselves advocates for the public to ensure
that everyone’s rights are protected. Miller & Wynn’s slogan is “Your
Partners in Your Time of Need.”
