Excellant Attorney

I am a partner in a large law firm and could have had my estate plan done by one of the attorneys in my office at a discount. However, my wife and I hired Chris Brown to put together our estate plan and we could not be happier with that decision. From the beginning to the end his service was excell...ent and I appreciated his creativity and knowledge of the issues involved. Indeed, he even stayed after hours when I was delayed by weather so that we would not have to wait to execute the final documents. If you need an attorney, I cannot recommend Mr. Brown enough.

Posted by Angie and John Groth | May 22, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Trusts

Excellent Attorney for Estate Planning!

Chris was recommended to us by our son, who has known him for many years. After our initial meeting, we felt very comfortable with Chris and hired him to do a Trust and Will for us. Anytime I had a question or concern, he returned my calls immediately and never made me feel like I was bothering him. ...Chris was extremely thorough, detailed and patient with us. We learned so much and felt totally at ease and in peace after the process was completed. John and I wholeheartedly recommend Chris to all of our family, friends and anyone looking for the best advisor around. His fees are very reasonable and he's always available to educate you and do what is best for your personal matters.

  • 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.
