If you’re looking for the best, you’ve found him

When faced with a life-altering event, it’s always a good idea to find the most qualified person to help you through it. If you need heart surgery, you want the best heart surgeon available. If your plane is flying through rough weather, you hope you have the best pilot at the controls. Well, whe...n you’re confronted with legal problems that could profoundly change your life, don’t put your future in the hands of just anyone. Hire George Brown. You absolutely will not regret it. I hired George Brown after I was accused of an absolutely monsterous crime. I faced the loss of my family, my job, and my freedom. I was devastated by the accusation and scared for my life, but George never made me once question my decision to hire him. His knowledge, courage, strength, and devotion to my case were amazing and gave me some of the only hope I could find during my darkest days. With George Brown fighting for me, my case was eventually dropped and I can finally breathe. Every language on the planet combined do not contain enough words to express how thankful I am for what he did for me and my family. Seriously, if you’re here to find an attorney, look no further. You’ve found the best. Do whatever you can do to get him on your side. You will not regret it.

Praise from another attorney who hired George MacAvoy Brown for his own defense

I am an attorney who was recently charged with Reckless Driving. The facts were messy and the potential consequences of a conviction on my career and personal life were severe. After interviewing several defense attorneys in the Detroit area and conferring with a few colleagues, I selected George t...o handle my case. I wanted someone who would do more than simply go behind a closed door with the prosecuting attorney and say 'please.' George and his team spent a significant amount of time with me preparing for pre-trial negotiations and even engaged third-parties to interview me and prepare helpful evidentiary reports. When the initial pre-trial conference didn't get the result I hoped for (due to the intervention of a private citizen), George and his team put in a tremendous amount of additional, unexpected work (requesting no additional payment) until I finally got what I needed (a reduction from misdemeanor to civil infraction). One of the police officers who came to know the disposition of my case commented that the particular prosecuting attorney who reduced my charge NEVER did so. In short, as an attorney AND a client, I would recommend George to anyone and everyone without reservation. George MacAvoy Brown is 'the lawyer's lawyer' - at least THIS lawyer's lawyer. Thanks George! Continued success!

Phenomenal Lawyer!!

I read the reviews before I set up my consultation with George Brown. The reviews were absolutely true. I was facing probation violation for a felony drunk driving with multiple accusations. I was facing 3-15 years. This man handled my case with absolute professionalism, supported my wife and I throu...gh our worrying and fears. He honestly somehow found a way to make us feel at ease. He went in calm and fought hard. I walked out of the courtroom with no fine, one year probation extension and NO JAIL TIME!!!! If you think you need help with an issue in your life, don’t take just any lawyer, get the best....George Brown. His professionalism is unmatched. He answers his phone EVERY time you call, he was never short with me or my wife. Simply a great guy and amazing lawyer. If you want the best representation, hire George Brown.

Grateful!

I couldn't have asked for a better attorney, george did everything in his power to help me with a probation violation charge. He was able to get it kept off my record. He also seemed to genuinely care to help and do everything he possibly could! Would highly recommend!

George Brown is Best in Breed. Made beating the 48th look easy. George it was an honor watching you work.

Well I had a completely honest review about George Brown that was not posted due to objective content. Try to read between the lines. After being charged with assault by the 48th SMAWLS! District I was put on strict probation. I violated probation over 15 times and wound up serving 45 in OCJ with... 5 more months probation after release. After release I got 5 more violations. I hired George Brown. After great work by George in every corner with kennections my probation was terminated. I went to the SMALL 48th district to be sentenced on a probation violation, and left a free man. Thanks George.
