Police said homicide detectives went to the scene to investigate, but Brown’s death is being investigated as a suicide.
According to the Post-Dispatch, Brown, along with his brother, Dan, created Brown & Brown in 1993 for personal injury and criminal defense cases.
The pair reportedly starred in a local video series called On the Road with Brown & Brown that saw them touring metropolitan destinations in the area.
Brown was “most recognizable for his eye patch which covers an injury he received when he was a child,” KMOX radio station reported.
Brown & Brown commercials that aired in the area often included memorable lines like: "If you can't come to us, we'll come to you."
The law firm’s website states that Brown was a principal partner at the office, concentrating on criminal law and traffic cases.
Per his bio on the site, Brown began his career “by working for Citicorp and as a Law Clerk with the Illinois 5th District Appellate Court.”
Brown returned to St Louis to form Brown & Brown with his brother.
The lawyer was fluent in Russian and loved playing sports in his free time.
Shulman said Brown loved his family “and enjoyed tennis, riding his motorcycle, sports cars, and traveling the world.”
