Casual professional encounter with a major impact

Initially I met Steven Brown in the Lake Wales office while visiting with Howard Kay several years ago. I was totally impressed with this gentle giant of a man not even thinking we would meet again until several years later. I am still shaken and reliving how in just a millisecond a life can so drast...ically be changed. I went from a 64 year old female with the ability to perform as well as any 30 year old to a "426" year old in a heartbeat when someone ran a stop sign and destroyed my pride and joy and turned my life upside down. This occurred on a Saturday and I called for Steven Brown. On Sunday I received a call from his associate Mark Meyer who was caring and took the time to gather facts and assured me I would receive a callback the next day. Monday Mr. Brown called me and set a time the same day. I was totally mesmerized by his empathy, knowledge and overall demeanor. Instantly I knew I could trust this man with my life. Throughout all the medical appointments there were occasions when I would not be permitted to drive. Steven took the time from his busy schedule to drop me off then picked me up. Who does that but a friend. Then when he heard about another catastrophe unrelated to the accident, comes to my home to console me. Again, who does that but a true caring friend. Steven is surrounded by those who reflect what he emanates - his lovely wife, Mary and Debbie and Becky - professionalism, knowledge, compassion, honesty and genuine caring about who they are serving and what they do. I was kept up to date on all communications with the other insurance company and transactions in my best interests. The medical professionals Steven recommended were of the same caliber. All my questions were answered and I was included in conversations. I am of the opinion there is NO ONE I would rather have on my side than Steven Brown and would advise anyone the same. He is an enigma and absolutely one of a kind.

Best attorney around.

If you are in need of an Personal injury or wrongful death Attorney look no further and hire Steve Brown. He is awesome, he is always just a phone call away. He has been a huge help to me and my family, after my husband was killed in a car accident. Any time I have a question or concern he is right... there every single time. His office staff are also a very big help. You will be very satisfied with him as your attorney. He deserves 10 stars. He will tell you he only represents friends and that is just exactly how he will treat you. Go ahead and hire him.

My personal experience with Steve

Steve was recommended by a very dear friend, it was the best decision I made, regarding my circumstance, not only did Steve take the time out of his busy schedule to come to my home, he put his feet in my shoes, on a business relationship and personal relationship he will always be like a brother to ...me and apart of my life, I can't express enough what Steve and his staff did for me if not on a daily basis or weekly basis, he was always available to me and worked hard and diligently on my case, and for that I will always be thankful, grateful and I highly recommend his services to anyone In need, Steve explained everything step by step and came to a resolution without going to trial, thanks to Steve and his staff I wouldn't be where I'm at today, but you must remember you have to be patient because good things do come to thoughs who wait, it's a process and it doesn't happen overnight, let's be real nothing does, with that being said please don't suffer Steve and his staff is one call or visit away. Steve is a blessing from God. Sincerely and life long friend, Kelly

A great Attorney

Steve represented me following a serious car crash in 2014. His vast knowledge about human anatomy and knowing the effect of a car crash on human body, was impressive and just as good if not better than a medical doctor. During the course of investigation and negotiation with the insurance company, ...Steve’s approach was graceful and professional, yet firm and unrelenting, all the while Steve and his staff were polite, understanding and extremely caring about my needs. I was very happy with the outcome, and I will recommend Steve Brown without hesitation to anyone who is in need of a helpful, knowledgeable, and caring friend, who happens to a masterful and a very effective attorney.

A attorney that REALLY CARES ABOUT YOU!!!!!

I had a slip and fall injury that I tried to deal with the store myself but that was not working. I was referred to Steve Brown though a friend who also had wonderful results with Mr. Brown. I was more than satisfied with the work and results that Mr. Brown got for me. He was like having a friend as ...a lawyer. Mr. Brown was always on top of everything from the beginning of my case to the settlement he got me. The most important thing I liked was that Mr. Brown always had my best intestest in mind, from my health to my settlement from the store I fell at. I would highly recommend Steve Brown as a attorney for all your needs!!!
