Wonderful Representation!

Stephen Brown helped me with my divorce case. Was very helpful, had excellent communication and I always felt well represented in court. Every conversation felt genuine, especially when he would point out things I needed to change on, but in the end, I could tell he was just looking for my best inter...ests. Thank you, Brown & Rice, PA, will definitely be calling you if I ever need to be represented again in the future.

Best Attorney In Orange/Osceola Area

Attorney Stephen Brown is absolutely hands down the best attorney in the central Florida area. He is very knowledgeable and continuously updated me on my case I never had to chase down an answer or information. He always responded promptly to my calls and/or messages. At the most difficult time in my... life I had little knowledge of the legal system and found myself feeling confused and hopeless. I was amazed at his level of professionalism and yet he is very compassionate, understanding, and respectful. He walked me through the legal system seamlessly I had a great outcome and I have used him for other legal services. He comes highly recommend from myself and my family.

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.
