Brown & Connery LLP

What Brown & Connery LLP does

Brown & Connery LLP is a regional law firm founded in 1928 by Horace G. Brown and headquartered in Westmont, New Jersey. The firm provides legal services across 11 practice areas: litigation, workers' compensation defense, labor and employment, real estate and land use, bankruptcy and creditors' rights, business transactions and planning, estate planning and administration, government litigation, hospital and health care, professional liability, and arbitration/mediation. With 58 attorneys and five offices across New Jersey (Westmont, Haddonfield, Woodbury, Camden) and Philadelphia, the firm serves business entities, public and private employers, government agencies, healthcare providers, and individual clients throughout New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

The firm's service model is professional services billing, with revenue generated through hourly attorney fees, contingency arrangements for workers' compensation defense matters, and fixed fees for specific programs such as workplace training. Client acquisition is driven by reputation, professional referrals, and direct engagement rather than technology-led channels. The firm has no proprietary technology platform; its only disclosed technology is Google Analytics for website measurement, and its competitive advantage rests on attorney credentials (Fellows of the American College of Trial Lawyers, NJ-certified Civil Trial Attorneys, certified Workers' Compensation Law Attorneys) and the inclusion of a retired New Jersey Supreme Court Justice in its arbitration and mediation practice.

Brown & Connery is organized as a private limited liability partnership, partner-owned with no external institutional investment. Its only material acquisition on record is the 2016 purchase of the boutique workers' compensation firm Freeman Huber Sacks Brennan & Fingerman, which materially expanded the workers' compensation defense practice. The firm markets primarily through its website, legal publications, CLE presentations, bar association involvement, and community engagement, consistent with a traditional mid-sized law firm model.
