Barrister and Solicitor, macushlaw
Jacquelyn E. Miller is a lawyer based in Victoria, British Columbia, practicing on the territories of the lək̓ʷəŋən and W̱SÁNEĆ peoples. A settler of European descent, her work is grounded in an ongoing commitment to understanding the relationship between law, governance, and place.
Miller is a barrister and solicitor whose practice focuses on complex legal and institutional issues, particularly where authority, decision-making, and governance structures shape outcomes. She brings a strong foundation in employment, administrative, Aboriginal, and business law, including professional regulation, compliance, disputes, workplace, decision-making processes, and general advisory.
Before entering legal practice, Miller spent more than a decade in governance and intergovernmental relations, advising Indigenous nations, non-profits, and public sector organizations. Her work involved strategic advising, negotiations, policy development, and community engagement across sectors such as health, education, and economic development. She also held roles within government, supporting senior decision-making on resource development and regulatory compliance.
Miller holds a Juris Doctor and Juris Indigenarum Doctor from the University of Victoria, where she later taught legal research, writing, and transsystemic legal processes. Called to the British Columbia bar in 2023, she is active in the legal community and contributes to scholarship on governance, legal history, and Indigenous–settler relations.
