Protocol Auditor

Gabriela Miller

Gabriela Miller is Protocol Auditor at State Legal Partners, supporting decentralized finance (DeFi) dispute analysis, smart contract reviews, and exploit assessments across complex digital asset recovery matters. Her work focuses on code-level vulnerability analysis, protocol mechanics, and contributing to structured, evidence-led recovery and incident resolution frameworks.

The experience behind the role.

Gabriela Miller serves as Protocol Auditor at State Legal Partners, supporting matters involving smart contract exploits, decentralized protocol manipulations, and complex on-chain financial disputes.

Her role centers on evaluating the technical architecture of decentralized applications, identifying vulnerabilities within deployed smart contracts, and assessing the mechanics behind malicious contract interactions, unauthorized liquidity drains, and protocol-level anomalies. Miller strengthens recovery initiatives by translating complex smart contract code and automated execution logic into clear, defensible technical assessments that guide recovery planning and case progression.

Working alongside recovery strategists, blockchain analysts, and investigative teams, she supports matters requiring rigorous code review, exploit mechanism validation, and carefully coordinated technical oversight.
