ORLANDO, Fla., May 23, 2017 - Burr & Forman LLP announces the addition of Scott G. Miller as a partner in its Orlando office and the firm's Corporate and Tax practice group.

He joins Burr & Forman from Broad & Cassel, where he was a partner for 17 years.

"Scott's arrival expands our ability to serve our clients.

We are excited to add him to our growing Florida roster."

Miller advises clients in all areas of estate planning, including complex gift, generation skipping transfer tax and estate planning, lifetime giving and charitable planning. He also represents taxpayers in gift, generation skipping and estate tax controversies with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), ranging from audits of returns and administrative appeals within the IRS to Tax Court matters. Miller's experience also includes working as an estate planning consultant for Ernest & Young.

He has been recognized by Super Lawyers, listed among the "Best of the Bar" by the Orlando Business Journal and is designated among Florida Trend's "Legal Elite."

Miller is a member of the American Bar Association, Georgia Bar Association, The Florida Bar's Real Property & Probate and Trust Law Sections, and the Central Florida Estate Planning Council.
