David Brown

Chairman

"What clients want is someone who understands and works in their interests."

Stanford Brown has always been about helping our clients lead a truly great life. My passion for our clients, our team and the firm remains the same as when I founded our business more than 30 years ago.

My priorities are to see that we continuously improve every aspect of our client offering and inspire our people to serve and deliver with excellence and humility.

The ultimate client comment that means more to me than anything else is “David, I trust you”.
