Mr. Clarke

I’m from North Carolina and got into some trouble with DC gun laws and Mr. Clarke came highly recommended and he was better than spoke upon. He not only got the charges dropped but he worked with me and was available anytime of the day or night.

Excellent Attorney

I am pleased and honored to write a recommendation for Andrew Omar Clarke. Mr. Clarke is an excellent attorney who is very knowledgeable in criminal law and an exemplary professional. Specifically, Andrew Clarke overall strategy, experience, expertise, and effective execution produced a successful ou...tcome (Not Guilty verdict on all charges) on my case. Moreover, he managed to maneuver through obstacles due to unequal treatment during the entire court proceeding, and his delivery of oral arguments was sound with a thorough representation of the established laws. He was able to identify irregularities of the prosecutions ’actions whom aggressively pursued criminal charges that were excessive and out of compliance with the regulations of the court. Mr. Clarke also succeeded a previous attorney for this case which he was able to develop a successful strategy with a limited time schedule. He also maintained constant contact and communication with me throughout this entire process. As a result, he exceeded expectations and therefore, it is without hesitation, that I would recommend Mr. Clarke to anyone seeking legal representation.

Professionalism & Prompt Legal Counsel

I was referred to Mr. Clarke by a dear friend and peer. Mr. Clarke took on my divorce case officially in August 2017 and the matter was completed November 2017. What I appreciated the most about Mr. Clarke was his attention to detail, prompt response and directives to me concerning due outs and or ...updates regarding my case. Mr. Clarke made both parties involved feel informed and followed up with us respectively of court dates and needed revisions for our legal paperwork. I would refer Mr. Clarke to my family and friends. I feel that the services that he provided were exceptional.
