only cares about the press coverage he can bring to a case

hired john henry brown years ago. he had little federal experience though told me that he would negotiate a good deal. both times in court he rail roaded me and called the press himself just for the coverage. poor excuse for a lawyer.

John Henry Browne saved our Lives. Every Holiday I think of him and say Thank You !!

We needed someone to save us from having our lives destroyed by the Legal System. John Henry Browne saved us. Everyone in the Court House knows him and respects him. He knows The System ! You need someone who can talk with the folks in the Court House to get the things you need... a time that wo...rks for you... maybe getting the Right Judge... I THINK this was one of the KEY decisions that JHB help orchistrate on our behalf... JHB knew when it was necessary to say something.. he knew when to Go With The Flow... . He is NOT afraid of any other Lawyer... he is NOT afraid of The Cops... he is NOT afraid of The System... At times JHB came across to us as Cocky and Controlling... and after he won the Case for us... he was SINCERELY and TRULY humble and modest ... Life is confusing ;-) !!! ... JHB knows The System, he is NOT afraid of anyone, he HATES to lose.... and I think JHB would agree with me that he is not a Perfect Person ( and neither am I ) ... but you are NOT looking for a Perfect Person... you want someone who is Confident, Cocky, Knows what to do, Hates to Lose and is on YOUR Side. If I were facing the Legal System again then I would go to John Henry Browne for help. Every Thanksgiving and Christmas I say a silent Prayer and Thanks to John Henry Browne... our family would NOT be the same if it were not for his efforts on our behalf. Thank you Mr. John Henry Browne !!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
