Franklin County Family Court Judge Report Card
Judge George Leach
| Judge Elizabeth Gill | Judge James Brown | Judge Douglas Nobles | Judge Lasheyl Stroud | Judge Kim A. Browne
Franklin County family court judges are elected, yet they almost always run unopposed (The Ohio Bar Association sees to this). Judges' campaign committees solicit massive funds from the very law firms that appear before them, creating a serious conflict of interest. These funds flow directly into the judges' pockets at the end of every election cycle.
Your reviews help families navigate this utterly corrupt system and expose these "public servants" running a billion-dollar industry that often prioritizes law firm profits over the protection of Ohio’s children.

Her ratings in the CBA polls are low for a reason. She was very disorganized and her timeliness was terrible. We waited three hours past our scheduled time just to start.

Extremely disorganized. The file was a mess and she couldn't find the most recent motion. It’s clear she has been on the bench way too long and has checked out.

Judge Browne really cares about the kids. She spoke directly to my teenager and made them feel heard in a very scary situation. I appreciate her empathy.

She talks a big game about helping the community, but her courtroom is a circus. No accountability for the GALs who run wild in her cases.

Terrible objectivity. It felt like she had a personal grudge against my attorney and took it out on my case. The whole process felt unprofessional and unfair.
