Great experience.

My wife and I were involved in a traffic accident that resulted in the total loss of our new car as well as injuries to ourselves. The other driver ran a red light so we were not at fault, Although the insurance company was helpful I just didn't want to handle it alone so contacted ATTN BROWNS of...fice ,That same day he came to our house and listened to our needs. He said he could and that is exactly what he did. We could not ask for any better representation. He took care of everything. Our wellbeing and our interest was always first. keeping us informed all the way. very professional, very knowledgeable, So easy to talk to ,

Steve Brown was a caring and concerned person. He thoroughly explained each step in the process. His long term experience with car accidents like ours was most helpful. He made wise decisions and with the help of his assistants every detail was covered. So when you are looking for a lawyer to repre...sent you Steve Brown is the man.

Professional. Caring. Effective. Hire This Attorney!

Steve Brown has my wholehearted endorsement and unending gratitude. If you need an attorney to handle a personal injury case I wouldn't consider anyone else but him. His representation on my behalf after I was injured in a bicycle-car accident went well beyond any reasonable expectations. I still fin...d it hard to believe the effort he put in toward building my case with witnesses and those involved. His handling of negotiations with the insurance companies reflected his considerable experience and savvy. And on top of everything else, you can't possibly find a more caring and empathetic individual. He and his staff are all just wonderful people. I truly believe he is the best attorney you could find.

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.

A friend for life

I was referred to Steve Brown, PI attorney, by my family law firm after a slip and fall accident involving multiple fractures requiring multiple surgeries. The incident happened on the premises of a not for profit organization making my decision to proceed with a law suit difficult. There were additi...onal medical issues that made my case very complex, but Steve's considerable medical knowledge and tenacious research brought my case to a settlement $100K more than the insurance company originally offered. In addition to reaching a fair settlement, I've made a good friend. Steve is not only an exceptionally astute lawyer, he is kind, friendly and caring with a wonderful sense of humor. His staff treated me like family and every request was met with a smile and results. My thanks to all.
