Tampa law firm hires veteran litigator in of-counsel role

Frank Brown, a longtime labor and employment law litigator, has been appointed to an of-counsel role at the Tampa office of GrayRobinson, a law firm that has more than a dozen offices throughout Florida, as well as a presence in Washington, D.C.

According to a news release, Brown has more than 35 years of experience in labor and employment law, in addition to civil and voting rights law. He will be part of the firm’s labor and employment section and will handle employment, employee benefits and civil rights claims at the trial and appellate court levels. 

Prior to joining GrayRobinson, the release states, Brown led the Reemployment Assistance Appeals Commission, a quasi-judicial administrative appellate body that serves as the highest administrative tribunal for Florida unemployment claims. He held that role from 2013 to 2022. 

Brown earned a juris doctor degree from Florida State University’s College of Law, and he is admitted to practice in Florida; the U.S. District Court for the Northern, Middle and Southern Districts of Florida; the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals; and the U.S. Supreme Court. In 2020, he received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Florida Bar Labor and Employment Law Section.
