Client Reviews
What Our Clients Say
“Great Family Attorney!”
“He kept me in the loop and up to date via text message the whole time, which I loved since I’m usually busy at work during the day, so we could stay in touch easily. We were able to get the official custody paperwork signed off quickly and easily with just one court date. I am forever grateful for Clay.” —Holly, 2018
”5/5”
“Having Clay as my lawyer was definitely a great experience, but one I hope not to repeat. I mean that in a good way that is, since he managed to swipe the ’DUI’ off my record!!! He was great and I recommend him if you want to be well-represented in court.” —Nathaniel, 2018
