Divorce and Separation 40%

In some divorce cases spouses retain a friendly relationship. The unfortunate truth about other divorces is that they involve heated custody, support, or asset battles, and some may even involve physical and/or emotional abuse. In the thirty years I have been practicing family law I have seen it all and have successfully fought and achieved a fair resolution for all parties involved. My mission is to protect you and your families' best interests ensuring a better future for you and your family.

Child Custody 30%

Unfortunately, emotionally taxing custody disputes are common in family law cases. Even after an arrangement has been agreed upon major life changes can render the situation unworkable. With over thirty years of experience the emotional nature of custody disputes is not lost on me. I am here to protect you interests and those of your children. I represent clients in all stages of child custody and visitation from the outset of the divorce or custody dispute to post-divorce modification.

Child Support 20%

Child support, alimony, and spousal support are primary concerns in family law. Child support is court ordered payment to the party having primary physical custody by the party that has partial physical custody. Spousal support is a court ordered payment by the spouse who is earing more money to the party who is making less. Alimony is a court-ordered, payment from one spouse to the other after the divorce is finalized. I will fight to get you the money that you are entitled to receive.

Family 10%

Family law issues can tear families apart and without the expertise of an experienced attorney you could easily become overwhelmed by the emotional impact as well as the complex legal system. I represent clients in all aspects of family law including divorce, custody, support, alimony and property division. I meet with each client personally. There is no fee for our initial consultation and no hourly billing. I promise to show you the competence, passion, and compassion that you deserve.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Loser lawyer, bottom feeder, son is a criminal as well

This guy should be disbarred. A very little man indeed. Needs to take a look in the mirror. Don't throw stones when you live in a glass house. Pathetic loser

Outstanding man and attorney

Gordon was my 3rd consultation, so how different he is, stood out immediately, and I knew right away that I found just what I needed. He is compassionate, passionate about his clients well being, incredibly fair, always there when needed, and a great sense of humor, when direly needed. My divorce dra...gged out for 4 yrs, from my spouses end, with him going through 4 attorneys, so I got to know Gordon very well. His years of experience was very helpful in that matter in knowing all attorneys we were dealing with . It was a long road, but in the end Gordon was able to hold on to what the court had mandated for me, and more. I can't say enough as to how foruntate I was to have found Gordon Brown.

Will find no one better!

Gordon Brown is a one in a million, you could not ask for a better lawyer to fight for your child/children. He puts his heart in his work and once you meet him there is no questioning that. He makes you feel comfortable in the court room and really fights for what he believes is the best interest for... the child. He is a genuine person which is truly rare in most lawyers. I can not say enough wonderful things about him and would truly be at a lost without him as an attorney. You will not find a lawyer better than him, i guarantee that. I will never be able to thank him enough for what he has done for my child and me.

In my last court date my lawyer fought for more time for me . My original outline was just weekends during the day supervised of course . He helped push for dinners during the week which to me I thought was awesome to have more time . He also seems very passionate about my case with every passing co...urt case he's always trying to push for sonerhing new . I would recommend him to any of my friends .
