Biography

Attorney Sheridan T. Brown is committed to the practice of law as a public service. In addition to offering traditional legal services, his practice includes community relations with the goal of making all levels of government more accessible and responsive to constituents. In 2014, he was among recipients of the Union Leader Newspaper’s “40 Under Forty” award, which, as described by the paper, “recognizes some of the state’s brightest young achievers who have a record of professional and volunteer accomplishments in New Hampshire.”

Prior to entering legal practice, Attorney Brown served as a non-partisan aide to United States Senator John E. Sununu from 1999-2009. In that role, he handled a diverse portfolio of work that included environmental, healthcare, and federal grant support projects. He has worked with a number of federal and state administrative agencies, municipalities, and nonprofit organizations in a wide variety of matters.

In addition to interceding on behalf of entities and individuals to resolve problems with agencies, he has helped secure millions of dollars in funding for community projects. During the past two legislative sessions, Attorney Brown has also led efforts in support of major environmental legislation protecting New Hampshire wildlife from toxic lead (Pb) fishing tackle and safeguarding the state’s natural resources against an oil spill by improving preparedness measures.
