You can tell that this is Joe's calling!

Joe and Hannah were a pivotal point in our child support modification/parenting time modification case. They were extremely thorough, detail oriented yet kind and personable which you don’t find with many attorneys. I could relate with them on a friendly basis but knew that they were going to fight... like crazy in court for what was best for my kiddos! I would hire them again in a second!

Excellent overall

Attorney Joseph Brown was engaged on a tough child support case with short notice and did an excellent job representing me and defending my case. He won and got me a better outcome than I had thought possible. He is smart, professional and has a great demeanor. He does a good job of making arguments... on your behalf with a direct and well thought out approach.

Complex Child Support Issue

When faced with a complex child support issue involving hidden income and assets, Joe did not falter at all. He dug into the issues surrounding my case with tenacity and was extremely thorough in his analysis. Joe always provided multiple options and kept me up to speed on the status of the case. Wit...hout his overall legal knowledge my results would not have been nearly as favorable. I highly recommend Joe. He is both personable and professional.

Effective and Efficient

Joe and his assistant Mary were great. They proactively handled my case, always working toward a short time line to save my time and money. Family cases can get drawn out, but Joe understood my goals and fought hard to get me the results I requested from day one. I look forward to referring his... firm and especially him to anyone I know that requires his professional skills and attitude.

"I worked with Joe Brown when I was in practice in Lansing, Michigan. I can't say enough positive things about him. He's an extremely bright, hardworking attorney who pays extraordinary attention to detail. He puts his clients' interests above everything else, and solves problems in creative, fair, and compassionate ways. His integrity is immaculate, and he can be trusted with any issue a client may have, no matter how sensitive or important it may be. I've also observed attorney Joe Brown in a classroom environment. He is an excellent instructor and a patient teacher. His ability to understand complex issues and break them down in a way that people can understand and relate to is a rare talent. Joe Brown is an attorney that is capable of handling any type of case that may come his way. His intellect, integrity, and capabilities make him a first choice for clients with difficult problems. I can't recommend him highly enough."
