About Coy
Biography
I am a native of Central Florida and now make my home on the beautiful emerald coast of the Florida Panhandle. I graduated cum laude from Charleston Southern University in South Carolina, where I majored in Criminal Justice. I was a Preseason All-American linebacker for the CSU Buccaneers, and was inducted into the university's Athletic Hall of Fame in 2004.
After college, I graduated second in my class from the Florida Highway Patrol Training Academy, where I also earned the school's prestigious Director's Award for leadership. In five years as a Florida State Trooper, I investigated over a thousand motor vehicle accidents, and participated in hundreds of criminal arrests.
Building on my law enforcement career, I earned my law degree from Samford University's Cumberland School of Law in Birmingham, Alabama, in 2001. After a short stint in Manhattan, New York, I returned to Florida and founded Browning Law Firm, P.A. in Fort Walton Beach.
I am married to Elizabeth Ward Browning and we have two beautiful children, Isla Grace and Tice Browning.
We can't say we're the best personal injury and auto accident lawyer and law firm in Northwest Florida, because it's against the rules. No one can say that, but we can say we will work hard to ensure you receive the compensation you deserve.

Highly Recommend!
I reached out to Mr. Browning after an auto accident that left me getting medically retired from the military. My insurance and the military legal team wouldn’t have gotten me anything for my losses.

Very good!
I approved and recommend the services of this firm. They are all very competent, they are not those firms that just take our money and do nothing to help us in our case.
