ABOUT
JAMES H. BROWN

Driven by purpose, James H Brown & Associates was formed to give Albertan’s involved in an accident and suffering from a serious injury the support they need.

Driven by Purpose

James H. Brown’s unwavering commitment to individuals facing serious injuries is deeply rooted in his own personal experience from getting injured, and the affect that it had on his life. At just 19 years old, James H. Brown was involved in a head-on collision with a drunk driver, resulting in a broken neck, ending his professional hockey career. He understands the pain and frustration that accompanies an injury, the challenges and hurdles in seeking compensation for medical care and the burdens associated with the recovery process.

This firsthand experience mixed with his competitive spirit and profound dedication to protecting the rights of Albertans, have helped inspire the award-winning history that has become and continues to be the James H. Brown & Associates’ legacy.

At James H. Brown & Associates we know that personal injuries can be life changing, and that the prospect of facing the realities of pursuing legal compensation alone can be daunting. Our team understands that more than just financial relief is at stake for our clients; the right to compensation brings peace of mind and comfort when it matters most. That’s why the firm is unwavering in its commitment to champion the rights of clients, advocate for justice, and support them in reclaiming their lives to the fullest extent possible.

United in determination, our commitment is resolute — 
we will help you build a stable and promising foundation for a brighter future.
