About Brown Chiari
Brown Chiari LLP is a personal injury firm with offices in Buffalo and Fairport.
The firm states that the first consultation is free; its intake line is open around the clock. It does not state a fee model on its public pages, so none is recorded here.
What this firm has earned Every one from a measured value, with the evidence behind it
LFL Verified 2026
Every eligibility gate this firm's state allows us to check has been checked and held: licensure, discipline, entity, website and footprint. Certification additionally requires a score of 70.
No public discipline
None of the 14 named attorneys carries a disciplinary status on the public register: no disbarment, suspension or disciplinary resignation. Those statuses persist, so the check reaches back years, but it would not show a censure or a suspension since lifted.
40 results published
Across 8 case types on the firm's own site. We read the page and counted what is on it; the amounts are the firm's and we have not confirmed them.

What the firm publishes itself
Brown Chiari LLP lists 40 case results on its own website, across 8 case types. The page carries no disclaimer about past results. We have read the page and counted what is on it. We have not confirmed the amounts, so none are repeated here.
Results are specific to their facts and do not guarantee similar outcomes. Firms submit results through their claimed profile; only results we can substantiate are published with amounts.
Attorneys 14 attorneys · every licence checked against the New York attorney register · 1 more person is named by the firm without a role, so we do not call them attorneys
