About Stutz Brown & Self

Stutz Brown & Self is a full service law firm in Orangeville, Ontario, serving Dufferin County. William Stutz founded the practice in 1976, and it's served the county ever since. Rob Brown and Jason Self bought the firm from Stutz in 2008 after Stutz's retirement, and it has kept the Stutz Brown & Self name. Four lawyers work there today, covering real estate, wills and estate planning, estate administration, corporate and commercial matters, and civil litigation with a focus on estate and commercial disputes.

Self, the managing partner, was called to the bar in 2005 and handles real estate, wills and estate planning, and corporate and small business matters. Brown was called to the Ontario bar in 1995 and practiced litigation for years at a downtown Toronto firm before joining Stutz Brown & Self in 2004, and now focuses on trust and estate litigation and commercial litigation.

Stephen Christie holds law degrees from a joint program run by the University of Windsor and the University of Detroit Mercy, graduating cum laude, and completed a public interest law fellowship in Accra, Ghana. Carey Allen grew up in Orangeville, studied law at Queen's University, articled with a prominent civil law firm in Ottawa, and later joined an Ottawa firm that practiced exclusively in criminal law before returning home in 2012 to join Stutz Brown & Self, focusing on real estate, wills, estate planning, and small business matters.
