Robert I Browning, a former judit ial clerk for Multnomah County
Circuit Judge Robert P Jones has opener) a private law practice in North
east Portland Browning s office is located in the Lawyers Corner, 2207
Northeast Broadway He w ill pjovidejeqal services in the areas of bank
ruptcies. personal injuries, family law lind criminal misdemeanor cases
Browning has a Bachelor s degree in Political Science from Pacific Uni
veisity, Forest Grove, and a J D degree from Northwestern School of Law.
Lewis b Clark College Browning was admitted to the Oregon State Bar
September, 1982
He said tieing in business tor yourself has some major advantages saying
that one has a sense ol independence
You don't face a lot of the pro
bletns many Black people encounter regularly in a job setting And further
more,” Browning said, "by being in private practice I tan control who my
clients will be By this, I mean I don t have to accept a case if I don’t want
Cases involving felonies and job descrirnmalion are not accepted by
Browning
The reason I don’t handle |ob discrimination cases is because
they can get very complex and employers are quite sophisticated in their
way of doing things.” Browning said as a general practitioner, he feels that
he should not be involved in this type o f law because it would take too
much time away from his law practice.
Biowmrvg believes that his 28 month tenure as a judicial clerk for Mult
nomah County Circuit Court Judge Robert P Jones will be an asset to his
law practice. He said that most lawyers in private practice wish they had
berm a law clerk because the courtroom is the end place where disputes are
finally resolved "While working for Judge Jones, I learned the mechanics
of selecting a jury, the proper way to present evidence, and procedural
aspects.”
Nationally, African Americans account for less than 2 percent of the
nation's 600,000 lawyers
Browning blames the underrepresentation of
Blacks as attorneys on the lack of role models in many African American
communities throughout the country He said. "Many white youngsters
come from families of judges and lawyers, so becoming an attorney or a
judge for them is a logical progression.”
Browning said the only Black judge he heard of while growing up in Port
land was Circuit Court Judge Aaron Brown Furthermore, he said other
factors such as tfie cost of going to law school and the difficulties some
Blacks have in passing state bar examinations may also contribute to the
underrepresentation of Blacks as attorneys
Browning urges young Black who are interested in becoming lawyers to
visit Black attorneys and analyze them closely to see whether the legal pro
fession is for them "I think the approach is helpful, because to become a
lawyer, it takes years of preparation, a commitment to studying, and a lot
of sacrifices
In addition,” he said, an individual must be aggressive,
assertive and combative.” Browning said the above traits are needed if one
is to be a successful atlorney
Browning derided fo become an attorney while an undergraduate stu­
dent at Pacific University "While at Pacific, the dean of admission told me
that he could assist me in entering Columbia University Law School This
got me interested In becoming an attorney. Unfortunately, in ,969 Presi
dent Nixon stopped all law school deferments Instead of going to Colum
bia Law School. I got drafted Into the Army for 2'4 years."
In an effort to assist Blacks and other minority law school students,
Browning said the Association of Oregon Black Lawyers gives three $500
scholarships Browning, who serves as secretary of the Association, said
the funds for the scholarships come from an annual dance sponsored by the
Association The dance, called the Ebony and Ivory Scholarship Dance,
will be held this year on Dec 12th at the Red Lion, 3 ,0 S .W Lincoln For
