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.

She is very direct and doesn't tolerate any games from the lawyers. If you want a judge who will cut through the drama and get to the point, she's the one.

Compassionate and fair. She really tried to work with my son to find a diversion program instead of just sending him to detention. We need more judges who care about rehabilitation.

Totally biased and unprofessional. She made up her mind about me based on one comment and wouldn't let my lawyer present the full evidence. A perfect example of why unopposed elections are dangerous.

Very disrespectful demeanor. She talked down to me and my counsel and made several snarky comments about my parenting style that were completely uncalled for.

She seems overworked. Everything felt rushed and like she was just trying to get us out of there. Not enough time was given to the most important issues regarding my daughter's safety.
