It’s so unfortunate because initially I had such a good initial consultation with Mr. Brown. He advised me to sign documentation so that he would represent me and had me pay an initial security deposit. I was able to resolve the matter shortly after without having to take legal action. When I informed his office of this I had thanked them and asked if I could get a refund of the deposit. I was told that it was not their problem that I didn’t need legal representation anymore. Even though no work was completed on their part, they told me that’s too bad and I already signed the agreement. It was never told to me that the deposit was non refundable. The secretary even had the nerve to say that I was rude for assuming that no work was done. When I asked him to send me proof of work that was completed, because I would have no problem paying if work was in fact completed. He agreed. Unsurprisingly, nothing was ever sent. It was a completely different experience from my initial consultation. Completely lacking integrity.

I can’t thank Kenneth Brown enough for the outstanding representation he provided. I was facing serious consequences—including fines, fingerprinting, and being entered into a database—but thanks to his dedication and expertise, the FRO case against me was dismissed. Mr. Brown worked tirelessly to defend me during trial, and his professionalism, preparation, and commitment truly made the difference. If you’re looking for a lawyer who will fight for you and genuinely cares about your outcome, I highly recommend Kenneth Brown!!

We did a case with Kenneth Brown in this office. He was very unprofessional, incompetent, and unorganized. He does not do what is asked of him at all. We provided evidence for the case which he did not even submit to the judge. He failed to request an interpreter for the witness that we brought on the case. On multiple accounts, I would give him documents and when I ask him about it, he would say that he does not have it. When we would urgently need to speak to him he would always be busy at any time that we call and would not give us the information that we need. He is very forgetful about anything that would be discussed with him. Even when we are able to get him on the phone, he would speak to me about someone else’s case. All he cares about is getting his money and then not doing anything on the case.

We dealt with Kenneth Brown and I really do not recommend this office or specifically Kenneth Brown to anyone. We had a horrible experience and had a bad outcome on our case which could have been avoided if he just properly did his job. Absolutely incompetent and unprofessional.

Kenneth Brown was able to get my Fathers restraining order charges dismissed. He was falsely accused and Kenneth was able to clear my father’s name in one court hearing. I’m very happy we hired him to represent us. From communication to price, Kenneth was great and it’s a huge plus that we were represented by an African American attorney.
