Millard & Bragg Attorneys at Law P.C.

We lost a barn the winter of 2016-17 due to snow load. We had insurance for the replacement value of the barn and were assured by our insurance company that there would be no problems. We live in a remote location and it is difficult to schedule contractors. The insurance company hired a 3rd party adjuster to determine the replacement value prior to our finding a contractor. The adjuster’s estimate came in considerably less than the value of our policy, but they assured us that once the contractor bid came in they would adjust the amount accordingly. And they paid us a percentage of what the adjuster determined to get us started on the demolition and replacement of the barn. Once we found a contractor he began working with the 3rd party adjuster hired by the insurance company. The contractor (who had no idea what the value of our policy was) put together a bid that was more than the adjuster’s replacement value. The contractor bid was still less than the value of the policy. Communications between our contractor (who was approved by the insurance company), the adjuster, and the insurance company dragged on as our contractor began the rebuild with the original distribution from the insurance company.nnUltimately, the adjuster and the insurance company would not budge. And, the insurance company would not release all of the money that the adjuster had determined. We could not pay our contractor for all of the services he had provided and the barn was not closed in. It was at this time in 2019, as the barn sat unfinished, that we began looking for an attorney. We were so incredibly lucky to find Millard & Bragg Attorneys at Law, P.C. and to work with Doug Bragg! Our case was complicated due to the time that had elapsed from the time the claim was filed. Doug navigated all of these issues and filed a lawsuit. The insurance company decided to go to arbitration. At this point Doug suggested that we hire a public adjuster, Paul Hanlin, to determine the value of the barn. With Doug and Paul’s help we were able to get a fair settlement. At this time, July of 2020, we have finally rescheduled with our contractor to complete the barn. We cannot say enough good things about Doug Bragg! Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you!!

My company has worked with Millard and Bragg for the last 6 years. In that time, they have always been honest and forthright and shown themselves to be experts in their areas of practice. I'm always looking for opportunities to refer them to my colleagues, and they take good care of them every time. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Great communication with the entire staff through my entire legal process. Fred Millard is a professional, extremely helpful and thorough. I would recommend this firm to anyone who is dealing with a legal matter that involves insurance entities specifically.

I have worked with Fred, Heidi, Doug, and the rest of the folks there for the last 7 years. They have always treated us professionally and it's clear that they know their practice well and will fight hard for you. In insurance law specifically, I think you want a fierce advocate to stand up for you and that's exactly what they deliver.
