Above and beyond

I hired Susan for a very continuous custody case. Everyday allegations and new problems just keep coming from every direction. I can honestly say that without this amazing women, my child would not be with me today. I did everything she asked me to do, and she did everything she could for me. The wor...ds “above and beyond” simply are not enough. When it comes to this kind of law she proved she was the best. With everything finally over, my adopted child and I can finally be happy, and I know I have a friend for life with Mrs. Susan Brown.

Thanks for dealing with my difficult Husband!

Although this matter took longer to settle than I expected, it was because my husband was so difficult to deal with. Ms. Brown was compassionate toward him, but clearly had my interests in mind and was direct and to the point. I wanted to express my sincere appreciation to for everything that she h...as done for me! I am excited to be single!

Modification of custody and contempt charges

Susan has handled multiple cases for me. I have filed contempt and had two modifications since my divorce. Susan has always been honest and upfront on what to expect (not necessarily what I wanted to hear). She is very knowledgeable of the law and strives to be fair. She answered my emails when neede...d and didn't make answers lengthy which I appreciated because that doesn't increase your lawyer fees with lengthy dialogue. I trust her and felt comfortable with her representing me. I have and will recommend her to others.

Could not have asked for a better attorney

Ms Brown's level of professionalism and knowledge is exceptional. She filed all documents with a sense of urgency and fought for my family's cause until closure. She addressed every issue diligenly and left no stone unturned. Ms Brown was with me every step of the way and it felt good knowing I ha...d a "fighter" in my corner. I would definitely recommend her to any one who not only needs a knowledgeable and reputable attorney but one who would keep your best interest at heart.

Wonderful experience during our adoption process

Susan was wonderful to work with. She was incredible fast gathering all the information that was needed to make the adoption of our first child go quickly. She was always available to answer questions or guide us in the right direction along the way. We would highly recommend her to anyone that is... looking for a knowledgeable and reliable attorney.

Avvo Rating

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.
