Meet the April 2025 Lawyer Dad of the Month: Evan Miller!
<p>Evan’s journey as a Lawyer Dad has taken him across the world—literally. He grew up in Idaho, where his dad was (believe it or not) a potato doctor. College took him to Utah, where he met his wife, Jessica, before spending two years on a mission in Russia. After law school at Mizzou, they packed up for Hawaii, where Evan currently clerks for the bankruptcy court while raising two little boys, Jansen (3) and Kallan (1).But Evan’s story is far from settling down. This summer, he and his family will make another big move—to Delaware for a new clerkship (and maybe baby #3?). And somehow, in the midst of fatherhood, career moves, and cross-country relocations, he’s also training for two marathons.Evan has been part of <a target="_blank" href="http://dadesq.mn.co"><strong>Dad, Esq.</strong></a> since the beginning, helping shape our vision and community as a key member of the <strong>Advisory Board</strong>. He represents everything this group stands for—commitment to family, professional excellence, and pushing personal limits.This month, we celebrate Evan—not just for what he does, but for the way he leads by example. Let’s give it up for him! 👏Join us in Dad, Esq. at http://dadesq.mn.co!</p> <br/><br/>Get full access to Dad, Esq. at <a href="https://dadesq.substack.com/subscribe?utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=CTA_4">dadesq.substack.com/subscribe</a>
