Joseph Taylor Brown

I hired Mr. Brown to represent me in my divorce. He rarely returned calls or emails. It got so bad that I filed a complaint with the Va. BAR. it wasn't until after he was contacted by the Bar that he attempted to finish my QDRO'S. My case started in 2015 and my QDROS were never completed by him. ... He took $500 to file them and never got them correct. I took 35 min did research and wrote them myself and the retirement board accepted them. Unreal. Stay away from him He has been disciplined in the past.

I hired Mr. Brown because I had researched him and read reviews. Every single one I read was positive! My experience is anything but. I hired Mr. Beown for a Child custody and support case. I paid $100 for the 1 hour consultation. Mr. Brown laid everything out and told me what he was going to do. I h...ired him right on the spot. I paid $2,500 CASH. My child's Father has an alcohol problem. However he does not have any DUi's on his record and I knew it would be hard to prove exactly how he would have to have supervised vistation only. I had loads of rear messages, things I had written down, and 2 witnesses to my ex's alcoholism. I thought he would of made arrangements with me to let me know what's going to happen in court. Nope he never called or texted me at all. The only time I spoke with him is when I had a question about something and that was it. He asked me THREE times about what my witnesses names, addresses etc. Were. I had given him all the text messages 2 months prior to our court date. When court finally came around he didn't call a major witness that I told him was a "star witness" to my ex's behavior. He had ME look through all the text messages and when I was on the stand I noticed him looking through the text messages I had printed out while I was being questioned by my ex's lawyer. I had to say objection on my own twice because he was too busy looking through all the evidence I had given him and his cell phone! My son's Father even admitted he does have a problem with drinking on the stand and guess what?! He gets my 1 year old son UNSUPERVISED and not only that he is in charge of ALL transportation BUT the ignorant judge did order a substance abuse evaluation on him. BIG WOW. Mr. Brown did NOT take care of me as his client. He left me in the dark about everything and what to expect in court. PLEASE do NOT use Mr. Brown as your lawyer in a child custody case if the other parent is not in the best interest or safety for your child.
