Experienced lawyers are important to advance any claim and resolve any dispute. Brown Law Office provides thoughtful, knowledgeable and highly capable advice to assist our clients on a variety of matters, including the interpretation of legal requirements, limitation periods and the options and strategies available to clients throughout the litigation process.

Accordingly, we are best suited for those occasions where you need a lawyer who will put in the extra effort to resolve a dispute.

It is our policy at Brown Law Office to keep our clients updated on the status of their claim at every step of the way.

Michelle represented the insurance industry as defence counsel, until she made the decision to advocate for plaintiffs in October of 2005. While she was a defence lawyer, Michelle worked for various insurance companies which gives her inside knowledge of the adjusting process.
