Hello! Terms surrounded by " characters will be treated as phrase query. So, if your default query operator is OR, the attorney:(Roger Miller) will result in documents with first or second (or both) terms in the attorney field. The attorney:"Roger Miller" will result only in documents that have the phrase Roger Miller in the attorney field.
