Highly Recommended

Mr. Brown represented me in a complex case involving a local municipality. His extensive knowledge, informative approach, and thoroughness were instrumental in achieving a successful settlement. It is my understanding that success in this type of case is very unusual.

president

In 2022 the Stamford Monument Company was involved in a highly specialized carving project in Stamford Veteran's Park, Stamford Connecticut. Upon completing nearly ninety percent of the project Stamford Monument encountered the general contractor's resistance to pay for Stamford Monument's services... rendered. At that point Stamford Monument was forced to seek legal representation to resolve this matter. Stamford Monument interviewed numerous law firms in the area. Stamford Monument was then directed to consult with a New York law firm of Welby, Brady and Greenblatt, the firm specialized in construction law cases. I then contacted the firm and spoke to Thomas Welby. I was impressed with Thomas Welby's knowledge of construction law and then decided to retain the firm in representing Stamford Monument in this collection matter. Attorney Austin Brown was assigned to file. I have worked in the construction industry for over fifty years and collection matters are difficult to collect to say the least. Austin Brown represented Stamford Monument perfectly, he presented our case in a highly detailed manner and was extremely well prepared for trial. Stamford Monument ultimately prevailed was awarded a judgement in access of our expectations. Austin is one of the finest trial attorneys I've have the pleasure to work with in the 50 plus years I've been in the construction industry. I highly recommend Attorney Austin Brown in all matters of construction law.

Outstanding Attorney

Mr Brown was hired by me to litigate my lawsuit which entailed a dispute between owners. This was an extremely complex case that entailed many documents of evidence and legal challenges. Mr. Brown took this case with such passion, dedication and hard work like I have never witnessed by any other atto...rneys I have worked with. Mr Browns fierce drive to do only the best is remarkable. Mr Browns legal knowledge and strategies are also remarkable. As a contractor, he had the patience and time to explain each step ,strategy and legal language that was being used. I highly recommend Mr Brown to anyone who is looking for an outstanding attorney who is driven to win, knowledgeable and compassionate for his clients. In addition, always available to take questions day or night. Mr Brown is a dedicated professional. I would hire Mr Brown again if or when services are needed.

Construction Industry

Austin successfully represented my business in an employee theft case and I have kept him retained as counsel since. We were well informed and advised during the entire process. His knowledge of employment law is essential as my staffing needs grow. His advice is thoughtful, professional and well-ar...ticulated. Thank you again, Austin.
