I am writing as a former lawyer who never thought he would need the services/expertise of another attorney. Attny. Clark's knowledge, expertise and candidness reminded me why this is - actually - a noble profession.

Best team of Lawyers
The best team of lawyers in Maritime affairs. Anything concerning the Merchant Marine world they are knowledgeable about. They are very detailed and maintained a very personal relationship with me during and after my case. I would refer them to anyone looking for a Maritime Lawyer.

Dwayne Lee Clark's Lawyer Endorsements
"I admire and endorse Dwayne Clark as an attorney. Dwayne Clark was a professor of mine when I was in law school and he talked a lot about his law practice. I dreamed of operating a firm with the same diligence and passion that he discussed with my class. He is willing to zealously advocate for his clients and is not afraid to work hard to ensure his job is done right. When an attorney is willing to proofread petitions and other court documents and have them reviewed again by his partner, you know he is an attorney who cares not only about his work but about his clients. I highly recommend anyone who is seeking a Maritime attorney to contact Clark & Watson, P.A. If Dwayne Clark can help, he will."
"I endorse this lawyer. When I had my first admiralty case (in California) I needed some advice from experienced admiralty attorneys. Florida has the country's most active admiralty bar and the Florida Bar suggested I call Mr. Clark. I did and Mr. Clark was very generous with his time in giving valuable advice."
"I have great respect for Dwayne Clark. He is an honest and ethical attorney who works dilligently for his clients. I have referred him cases with great success and have called on him for advice on matters in which he has more expertise. He is a Class Act who makes the legal profession better."
"Dwayne Clark is an attorney of the highest ethical standards with a superior knowledge in his field. I have been referring clients to Dwayne for over 10 years. He is industrious in preparation and zealous in representation. I recommend him without reservation."
"I have worked with Dwayne on and off for twenty plus years. Dwayne is an excellent lawyer with the intellectual firepower and legal judgment that clients need to prevail in our system of justice."
"I have known and worked with Mr. Clark for many years now. I have find him to be extremely knowledgeable of the law as well as accessible to his clients. I would completely trust him to handle any admiralty/maritime issue. I am also proud to call him one of my friends."
