This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Modification for custody

I hired him because my ex was trying to get full custody of my children. I told him then I wanted to go for full custody for my son. We ended up in mediation the ex dropped the full custody and changed kids pick up time and address for pick. I asked him why can’t we just go for full custody and he sa...id it’s because she did the modification and since she backed down I’m good. After signing I asked when can I go back for custody and child support he said wait about 6 months cause a Judge doesn’t like to see you too soon. Well it took them 5months to get the Judge signature and I decided to file myself to find out I have to wait a year later from the time the judge signed. The judge said I should have done all of that during the last modification. It didn’t make any difference if she filed the motion. I could gotten my son and child support increase last September. Mr. Brown knew that. I can’t go to the attorney general because I have to wait 3 years from the divorce. I can only use an attorney to get my child support that due and it’s hard to trust them after they take your money and curve the truth.

Difficult Divorce

I can’t possibly write a stronger recommendation. Jimmie has helped me out twice in the past 15 years and got me outstanding results both times. He is no nonsense, blunt at times but and will tell you exactly what you need to do to protect yourself and win. Listen to him, follow his advise word for w...ord, never doubt his strategy I assure you he’s several steps ahead of what you think will happen. While no nonsense, you can trust and feel his empathy for your situation and will aggressively resolve your issues in a timely manner and always was available for last minute questions, clarification or just to talk.

Excellent Attorney

Mr. Brown is the attorney you need to have when you're dealing with the legal system. He's brutally honest with you and he doesn't mince words. He keeps you informed and he isn't afraid to bring the fight to the opposition. When I first had to deal with the legal system I was scared of what could ha...ppen but he was able to remove all of my fears and assure me that everything was going to be okay. He told me that if he's not worried that I had nothing to worry about. He's kind, compassionate, and always available to answer any questions that you may have. He's the person that you want in your corner.

A Total Disaster

Jimmie Brown let my discovery deadlines expire against TXDOT and DPS. No depositions were performed by him. Both agencies were refusing to rehire a Disabled Vet. He then let my DPS case go to Summary Judgement unopposed by him. This is worse kind of Lawyer you could hire.
