I was referred to John Clarke after contacting five or six other lawyers that did not want to bother with my case; I got the impression that they didn't think it was worth it for them. When I first spoke with John, he actually listened! And then he asked me pertinent questions. Throughout our interactions, he called to keep me up to date and if I called him, he got back to me by end of business day. He made us feel as if our case was the most important one he had, which I know it wasn't.
John is the ultimate professional and it would be hard to find anyone better, in so many ways. From diligence and responsiveness to patience and understanding, he has all the traits needed to guide you through any negotiations/agreements or trial.
I highly recommend John Clarke to represent you!
Mr. Clarke is tough and smart! After my house was sold at a foreclosure auction, the bank sued me for a deficiency of $150K. He analyzed the case carefully and found that the servicer, which had acquired the loan from the original lender, hadn't filed the correct documents to prove standing. As a result the court dismissed the case. I only wish I had hired him before they took my house!
I started ClarkeLaw to help ordinary people with their legal needs. If you have been injured in an accident, I will fight to get you the most compensation possible for your loss. If you are planning to pass property to your family, I will craft an estate plan to effectuate your wishes and safeguard your legacy. If you are in debt and facing collection efforts by your creditor, I will advise you on how to resolve the situation and protect your assets. I will use my experience and legal expertise to put your best case forward.
I have practiced in a variety of areas of the law, including personal injury, real estate transactions and estate planning. I have worked extensively with medical providers, and have the skills to negotiate a favorable settlement for your personal injury claim. Finally, I am proud to say that I have assisted homeowners to keep their homes when they were faced with improper foreclosure actions.

A Caring and Knowledgable Attorney
A friend recommended we speak to Mr. Clarke after my husband and I were injured in an accident. We weren't sure how to proceed. Mr. Clarke took 90 minutes to get all the details of our case, and clearly explain what remedies we could realistically seek. He also explained how are damages would be assessed, and the pros and cons of settling the case prior to suit. We were very impressed by his professionalism, knowledge and dedication to his clients.

Smart Attorney and Nice Guy
I was rear ended in a car accident, and got whiplash. I was treated by my doctor and my PIP insurance was supposed to pay but the company denied the claim. Mr. Clarke sent a demand letter to my insurer and threatened to sue for bad faith unless it paid the claim. They ended up paying within 2 weeks.
