About Comet Mitigation

Founded by Julia Milan, Comet Mitigation provides high-level investigative and consulting support for attorneys navigating complex state and federal cases. Julia’s work bridges investigation, mitigation, and trial strategy — combining rigorous fact-finding with narrative precision and psychological insight.

With a background spanning roles as a CJA paralegal, licensed private investigator, and sentencing mitigation specialist, Julia has partnered with defense teams nationwide to develop case theory, prepare witnesses, and refine trial narratives. Her approach is grounded in empathy and strategy alike: helping attorneys understand how juries think, how clients communicate under pressure, and how stories shape outcomes.

Julia’s work has contributed to dismissals, not-guilty verdicts, and substantially reduced sentences at both state and federal levels. She’s known for her calm courtroom presence, intuitive read of human behavior, and ability to turn complex case dynamics into clear, credible stories.

At Comet Mitigation, the mission is simple: reduce harm, minimize risk, and improve outcomes — through insight, preparation, and the power of story.

Comet Mitigation serves defense attorneys, legal teams, and media professionals nationwide.
