After growing up in Edmonton and obtaining a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Alberta, I attended the University of Calgary and obtained my Juris Doctor.
About Mark Miller
I returned to Edmonton to article with Weir Bowen in the summer of 2020. With an interest in advocacy and the broad world of civil litigation, I look forward to honing my craft and growing my practice over the coming years.
As an undergraduate I studied Sociology and Psychology, capping off my degree with a semester abroad in Cortona, Italy. During law school I managed and played for the faculty hockey team, in addition to volunteering with Student Legal Assistance, which gave me the opportunity to defend clients charged with criminal offences, and to advocate for clients in family law disputes. I also played in multiple punk bands throughout university and continue to make music today.
On weekends you’ll find me playing guitar, drinking coffee, biking and watching the Oilers try to play hockey.

INDIGENOUS LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
The lands on which Edmonton sits and the North Saskatchewan River that runs through it have been the sites of natural abundance, ceremony and culture, travel and rest, relationship building, making, and trading for Indigenous peoples since time immemorial. Edmonton is located within Treaty 6 Territory and within the Metis homelands and Metis Nation of Alberta Region 4. We acknowledge this land as the traditional territories of many First Nations such as the Nehiyaw (Cree), Denesuline (Dene), Nakota Sioux (Stoney), Anishinaabe (Saulteaux) and Niitsitapi (Blackfoot).
Weir Bowen acknowledges the many First Nations, Métis and Inuit who have lived in and cared for these lands for generations. We are grateful for the traditional Knowledge Keepers and Elders who are still with us today and those who have gone before us. We make this acknowledgement as an act of reconciliation and gratitude to those whose territory we reside on or are visiting.
