About Jeffrey
Jeffrey Millin earned his J.D. from Ohio Northern University in 1989. He came out of law school at a time when many small firms were expanding into regional practices. He built a career that has remained anchored in the same legal community for decades.
He became a partner at Shafer Law Office in 1990. That early move into partnership set the tone for a long tenure at the firm. Colleagues and clients have come to expect steady presence and institutional knowledge from him, the kind that grows from years spent handling the same kinds of procedural and substantive challenges.
Millin is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania and in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit. Those admissions allow him to appear in state matters and at the federal appellate level. His courtroom work and filings have therefore extended beyond trial courts, reflecting experience in both trial and appellate settings.
Over more than three decades in practice, he has remained at Shafer Law Office. That continuity has produced a practitioner familiar with local judges, opposing counsel, and recurring issues in the region. He has handled matters that require attention to procedural detail and to the rules that govern appeals in the Third Circuit.
He balances attention to long-term client relationships with the demands of federal practice. His daily work involves drafting briefs, preparing records for review, and arguing procedural questions when cases reach appellate panels. Peers describe him as someone who knows how appellate calendars work and how to move a record forward when appeals are at stake.
As of 2026, Millin continues his practice at Shafer Law Office, maintaining an active practice in Pennsylvania and before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.
