Felt like he was actually a decent person.

He’s a lawyer…. But he’s your lawyer lol. No for real though he was a good one who helped me with my divorce he answered my questions quickly and was reasonable with his rates. I would recommend him to others.

Best divorce attorney in Murfreesboro!

My case was a difficult one. It could have been a lot of money, But to my surprise, It wasn't. David handled it beautifully! Some lawyers could have milked it till the funds were dry,but didn't. Did I mention he got everything I wanted! So excited for my future! If I have problems again he will be th...e only one I call. Thank you so much David

Drug charge

I would never hire this lawyer to defend me again. First time in court he had a conflict and I had to go by myself to get put down by the judge for his absents. Second time he was there but nothing happened. The third time all he wanted to do was plead the case down instead of standing up for me in f...ront of a judge. Not a very good lawyer for what I had to pay him. Be very careful hiring him. He is never on time. He never explained his strategic for my defense.

2nd DUI arrest

After being falsely accused and arrested for a DUI 2nd, I felt like no one was going to believe me. Before I hired David, I went into my old attorneys office and told her what happened front to back. Not only did she look as me as if I was lying, all she said was I had nothing to worry about and expl...ained nothing but her price. After time I had so many questions and could never reach her. I finally was fed up and luckily walked into David Clarke's office. He listened to everything I had to say, then explained everything to me without me having to ask one question. My case isn't even over yet and he's already helped it because he knows what he's doing. He has been 100% honest about everything he's said so far. Today I called just to ask his secretary a question about my case and instead of her returning to the phone it was him. Last but not least the price was the last thing he brought up and if I wasn't able to pay it all up front he was willing to work with me. I highly recommend David L Clarke for any kind of legal counseling. He will be the only attorney my family and I will use from here on out.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
