HISTORY
When Mr. Aubrey Brown, a much-loved Central Coast local and respected lawyer, founded his practice in Wyong in 1944, his goal was to create lifelong relationships with his clients. His vision has stood the test of time, lasting over three quarters of a century. In fact, such was the respect for Mr. Aubrey Brown that the Directors proudly continue to use their founder’s name. One of those Directors, Rod Wicks was employed by Mr. Brown in the 1970s, before retiring in 2021 after nearly 50 years of service to Aubrey Brown Lawyers and the Central Coast community.
Anna Cruckshank joined the firm under Rod’s guidance over 30 years ago, working in various roles before becoming Managing Director in 2011. Together with the other Directors and management team, Anna continues to uphold the firm’s respected reputation.
