Utah Family Law Attorney for High-Asset Divorce and Business Interests
When a business is part of a divorce, the stakes are different.
The marital estate is not just a house and a retirement account. It is an operating company, a contested valuation, questions about goodwill, entity structure, and in some cases an appeal. These cases require an attorney who understands not just family law but how businesses are built, valued, and legally structured.
That is the work Jeremy Miller does.
Jeremy R. Miller is a family law attorney at Pearson Butler in South Jordan, Utah, serving clients across the state. He focuses on high-asset divorce cases where a business interest is at the center of the dispute. He handles cases from the initial filing through trial, and through the Utah Court of Appeals when the outcome warrants it. He works with business owners, their spouses, and the attorneys and advisors who refer complex matters to counsel who can handle them.
Jeremy brings an unusual background to this work. Before focusing on family law, he spent nearly a decade advising federal agencies on regulatory compliance and risk management at Booz Allen Hamilton and MITRE, and he currently serves as general counsel for a Utah healthcare technology company. He understands how businesses operate from the inside, not just from across a courtroom. When an opposing expert presents a valuation, he engages with it at a level most family law attorneys cannot.
Jeremy earned his J.D. from Syracuse University College of Law, ranked among the top trial advocacy programs in the nation, and a Master's degree from the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University. He has 18 years of legal experience across litigation, regulatory compliance, and corporate matters.
If you are a Utah business owner navigating a divorce, or an attorney or advisor who works with business owners and occasionally encounters these situations, Jeremy welcomes a direct conversation.

Why Clients Trust Jeremy Miller
Business Depth Most family law attorneys understand divorce. Jeremy understands the businesses inside divorces. His background advising federal agencies, serving as general counsel for a healthcare technology company, and working across corporate and regulatory matters means he engages with business valuations, entity structures, and financial disclosures at a level most family law practitioners cannot match.
Trial and Appellate Capability Jeremy handles cases through trial and, when the outcome warrants it, through the Utah Court of Appeals. In high-asset matters where significant financial interests are at stake, having an attorney who thinks about appellate strategy from the first filing changes how the case is built.
18 Years of Utah Litigation Experience Jeremy has practiced in Utah's district courts across Salt Lake, Utah, Davis, and surrounding counties for 18 years. He knows the courts, the judges, and the procedural landscape that shapes how complex cases actually resolve.
