Tom Browning was a light in the dark to my family at a time when our options looked very limited and likelihood of a positive resolution wasn’t good. Not only was Tom able to defend my children and I from physical and financial harm, his soft-spoken style was a great emotional comfort to myself and my loved ones. Tom negotiated a settlement for me that was everything I wanted and needed. My children and I are eternally grateful for his service and I recommend Tom Browning without any reservations.

Tom is a well liked and very respected attorney, not just in Cobb County but throughout the state. He has strong relationships with most opposing counsel, which proves very helpful in navigating what can be a long path towards final resolution of a case. His familiarity with family law judges and their staff is equally valuable. Tom is a compassionate attorney who cares about his clients. As an attorney and a client I deeply appreciated that side of him. Tom's knowledge of Georgia family law and ability to utilize that along with his years of experience is invaluable. I have referred friends and several high profile cases to Tom but of course the most important case is always your own. He scores highly in every instance!

Tom Browning is a well regarded family-law attorney in Marietta. After unsuccessfully using two previous lawyers for a complex family law issue, I hired Mr. Browning and his associates. They recognized legal issues that had not been addressed by my previous attorneys and resolved the case to my satisfaction. Mr. Browning listened to my concerns, worked well with the other professional I hired and provided correct legal advice essential to resolving, "winning," my case. If I had hired Mr. Browning from the start, my problems would have been resolved long ago with less expense and stress.
I would not hesitate to hire Mr. Browning again.

Tom has been my lawyer through my divorce and helped me gain full custody of my kids among other things I was fighting my ex for. He and his staff always made me feel like I was their most important case. Although he is a highly sought after attorney in Marietta, Tom always had time for me and never rushed our meetings or rescheduled anything, which I've known other attorneys to do. He took lots of time going over everything with me pretrial and made sure we were prepared for anything and everything that would come up. I also found that he had spent lots of his own time preparing and learning everything about my case as well. At the trial, we had lots of evidence against my ex that Tom had advised me to collect and our case was solid. When I watched his strategy play out in court, it was genius. My ex's attorney had built a strong case against me and I know if I did not have Tom to defend me there is a good chance I would have lost. Tom definitely made justice prevail that day and shined a light on how trivial their case was against me. The years of experience and knowledge of the law show through his actions and approach throughout the trial. I felt that I was represented better than than I could have ever hoped for. We ended up leaving with more than what I thought we could and best of all, my kids are home safe with me everyday. I know that I owe that all to Tom and his staff. I am so very grateful to have Tom as my attorney. If you want to win your case, I suggest you call Tom! And let's just hope he isn't representing someone against you!!

Divorce is often difficult, at best, but when divorcing a possible narcissist -the process can almost be unbearable. Mr.Browning and his very capable staff managed the huge challenge very successfully. They evaluated the collected data as was known, and pulled together over a period of about one and one-half years;-all of the facts of the case. However, his team went deeper into the base cause of this case. They identified the root issues and went to work to bring the true focus of the case to the front. Although the process was demanding for all of the team they organized, did research, left no stone unturned. When we went to court we knew good results would occur. It did. I will always be grateful to Mr. Browning and his very competent team.

Mr. Browning handled my divorce two years ago. I was an emotional wreck and totally at a loss of what to do as my marriage was unravelling. Tom Browning was so incredibly knowledgeable about divorce, what I was entitled to, how to go about getting a settlement done quickly as I did not want a trial-just to be done and move on! I will never forget his kindness and responsiveness to my distress - divorce is tough. He answered all my questions and always returned my calls. My ex's attorney really became easier to work with once I hired Tom as he is greatly respected in the legal community, I know because I asked around. I felt my divorce was handle professionally and quickly by Tom and his firm.

Tom Browning was my divorce lawyer. I had a strong case but that doesn't mean much unless it's presented by an attorney like Tom who the Court knows and trusts, as I have come to find out. My ex's attorney was pulling all kind of shenanigans and instead of responding eye-for-eye and running up my bill, Tom assured me I would be okay. I was very nervous about that. In the end I was ok; he kept his fees very reasonable; and he was right.
I would say Tom's weak point is in responding to calls (terrible) and keeping me informed. Divorce is harrowing enough without having to wonder whether your attorney is doing his job. Also I'm pretty astute about legal matters and did a lot of trial preparation (evidence prep) myself, without his suggestion or direction...which I felt he should have given me (the evidence I prepared turned out to be very useful). Other complaints - he once did not show up for a post-judgment hearing and neither called me, the opposing lawyer, nor the court. Also in submitting the draft judgment to the Court for consideration in its award (both sides were asked to do this) - I wrote mine and gave it to Tom to submit. He did that and the Court granted about 95% of what I had asked for - but Tom left off a critical attachment and that caused the post-judgment issues.
In summary if you have a good case and can be an effective member of your own team to manage your case -Tom is an honest and likable man who I believe is held in high esteem in the Courts, and who will guide you through the process. On the other hand - if you want to put everything in your attorney's hands and expect a well-managed case and a communicative attorney, you may be disappointed.
