Posted by Megan | May 17, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Excellent Attorney

Susan represented me in a nasty divorce that lasted 2 years, because my ex-husband kept refusing to sign the papers. She fought for me the entire time, never backing down. She made sure that I knew exactly what was going on at all times and also made sure that I understood everything that was going o...n. She was always available to take my phone calls and answer any questions that I had. She made a very stressful time in my life much easier. The legal system can be very confusing, and she calmed my nerves every time. I would recommend her to anyone that's going through a divorce or custody battle. She fought for me and my daughter like we were one of her own. She's an outstanding attorney that gets the job done!

Posted by anonymous | July 25, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Been my attorney since 2008

I hired Susan in 2008 to represent me when I was divorcing my second wife. I was more then pleased with the results. She communicated well, made sure I was updated through every stage of my divorce. She has since represented me in multiple child support modifications and contempt issues with my f...irst wife and I can't say that everything I hired her for came out exactly the way I wanted, but I believe she did her best to ensure I was properly represented. I have never had to chase her down or hound her for information. She responds to text of phone calls within a reasonable amount of time and has always expressed a caring attitude towards me. I will say some of her staff in the past was not very friendly or helpful, but that's why they are no longer employed by Ms. Brown

Family lawyer | Feb 07

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I am a fellow local attorney here in Fayette County who practices family law and criminal defense. When I needed an attorney to help with my own personal divorce, I got Susan. We lawyers spend hours and hours in court waiting our turn and watching other lawyers do their thing. I've seen Susan in action and this woman knows her stuff. She has a top notch handle on the laws concerning family law. She is not afraid to take on certain male attorneys that try to intimidate or bully her. She sticks up for her clients, knows the law and works hard to get the best results. What more could you want?"
