Straight shooter

I needed an attorney for a difficult case, I met with Shelley and she let me know what to expect in court and what the judge might expect from me in this process. I was impressed with her tenacity and how hard she fought for me. If you need an attorney then I highly recommend her!

Excellent attorney

I have used Shelley in the past and I was very pleased. She is very personable and she "tells it like it is" which I absolutely loved. I have recommended her to others and they have all been pleased with her service.

Never Use Again

NOT-Trustworthy, shared important personal information with the other side. The personal trusting relationship between a trustworthy lawyer and client was absent most of the time. Felt at times after speaking with her a lot of guilt, because I needed her legal knowledge because of a broken marri...age and abusive x-spouse. Attorneys get with each other and you are the point of their jokes..... I felt this way a lot. If I ever need another legal profession, I will most defiantly contact someone in another town (or State) - at least one that will be able to relate or had to endure the devastating legal position I find myself dealing with.

Well Rounded and a Go Getter

I have had the pleasure of using Attorney Shelley Brown for quite some time. She is well balanced and straight forward in attaining your best outcome. She has a no nonsense get the job done ethic and is well suited to handle any situation. I would highly recommend her and her staff to anyone. In fa...ct I have done so on several occasions and everyone has thanked me.

Family lawyer | Jul 24

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I have collaborated with Shelley on cases and served as opposing counsel in cases with Shelley and no matter what always found her to be highly educated in her field. Shelley is compassionate and will zealously advocate for her clients in trial if needed however she will give them "real world" advice to try and resolve cases outside of court as she completely understands the emotional turmoil trial can bring to a family. I endorse Shelley!"

"I would hire her to work in my law firm in a heartbeat, but she is having too much fun running her own practice. Smart, professional, hardworking, creative, cares about her clients, does not run up the fees or create unnecessary drama, just everything you would want in a lawyer or an associate."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
