I find Mr. Brown to be a very untrustworthy individual to work with. Initially, he comes across as very helpful and friendly, but over time you realize he’s doing what’s best for his firm. Often he makes up concerns, demands, issues, etc., to get what his client wants. The second worst part is Mr. B...

Jason Brown struggles with being honest. Jason follows money is the money. He doesn’t follow his fiduciary responsibility as a Minnesota attorney. . Instead, he is consumed by greed from case after case. Instead of doing what’s right, he will follow his clients instructions regardless, if they’ve bee...

The following is a personal opinion. My case was started with a junior attorney on staff. I felt a connection and more importantly I trusted them. Part way through my case Jason took over. He led me to believe he could get better results. All I got was a larger bill and after many failing, I began...

After 18 months of contentious litigation, and a three day trial, our client was granted sole physical custody of the children.
The case settled on a full and final basis in favor of our client after our lawyers convinced the court to award joint physical custody at a temporary motion hearing.
After a three day trial, our client was allowed to remain in Arizona with the children and was awarded sole physical custody.
The vast majority of our client’s arrears were forgiven by the court. Wife sought review by the Minnesota Court of Appeals. Her claims were denied.
our client’s arrears were deemed satisfied and his “wife” owes husband nearly $20,000.00
The court denied husband’s request to modify. The value of our client’s ongoing maintenance award exceeds $1,000,000.
