Steve is more than just a lawyer to his clients. He takes the time to understand the whole person that he’s representing so that he can design a unique legal solution that works for them. It’s refreshing to see a lawyer care so much about the personal aspects of each case, rather than get caught up in the legal quagmire.

I have known Attorney Brown for many years. He takes the time to know the facts of a case better than the other side. He also works hard to understand the problem and come up with a creative solution. If you are facing a legal problem near the coast, contact Attorney Stephen Brown he will help you get justice.
