Since I have worked with several attorneys in Southern California, I have no hesitation in recommending this law firm. My initial consultation with Shannon was so informative and she was 100% honest with me about where my high conflict custody case stood and where it needed to go. I am very grateful to my attorney, Steven Brumer and team, for their exceptional attention to detail, informativeness, and dedication to my case. Ultimately, Steven was able to secure the best possible resolution for my case, all without requiring me to go to trial. My child's best interests were always at the forefront of his decisions and he provided me with guidance and advice I can continue to use throughout this journey of parenting. If there is one thing I've learned over the years, it's that you really get what you pay for with attorneys. I 100% recommend Steven for any custody case.

Jaime & Shannon did a great job for me. I always felt like I knew what was going on with my case and like they listened to what I wanted. A few times I was pretty upset about my case and Jaime explained everything to me so I could understand and calm down. It's amazing how much they know off of the top of their heads. They are great attorneys and people, and I would recommmend them to anyone else in a heart beat.

Divorce is a messy business and not always pleasant. Shannon Miles was very knowledgable and matter of fact (which I really appreciated). Her team at Cage & Miles were easy to work with, professional, thorough, and cared about providing a good experience for their clients. I appreciate all of their hard work and follow up to get my divorce finalized. I would recommend them if you need a good lawyer.

Great firm. They have been over the top exceptional! I have a "high conflict" case and Jaime has been amazing with every tantrum my ex throws our way. They are also knowledgeable about personality disorders which are helpful in my case. Jaime and Shannon take the time to explain the divorce process and help make a smooth transition for you and your family.

Five Stars is Not Enough! Since my very first consultation with Shannon Miles I new she was the perfect attorney for my child custody case. My situation was complex and involved coordinating with other attorneys out of state. Through it all Shannon and her superstar team was there to make sure I was fully represented and that my rights as a Father were protected. Shannon was tough, extremely thorough and detail oriented. I hold the highest confidence in her professionalism, legal knowledge and battle skills. You can't go wrong with Cage & Miles for any Family Law matters. Thank you Shannon!

Jenna Y

I came to Cage & Miles after being served with a restraining order filed by my ex. I was completely shocked and didn't know where to turn, I work in the medical industry and cannot afford a restraining order on my record. After searching around online, I decided to set up a consultation with Shannon Miles. I immediately hit it off with her and hired her to appear at my hearing scheduled for the next week. Shannon expertly handled my case in court and successfully disproved all of the false claims my ex made. The restraining order was dismissed that day. Now every time I get a threat from my ex, I tell her to give Shannon a call! If you need an aggressive attorney, call Cage & Miles.

Michael Azuko

I was referred to Shannon Miles and her highly capable colleague, Jasey Mahon. I was very pleased with the outcome of my case, and the sound and practical advice provided to me. Both Shannon and Jasey represented me in a compassionate, yet direct manner which was most appreciated. I genuinely felt they had my back throughout the process. Should I require additional legal services, I will not hesitate to reach out to Shannon and Jasey again.

Michael Levison

I would recommend them to anyone in need of a Family Law Attorney. Thank you both again!
