"I endorse this lawyer. Dave used to practice in the area of landlord-tenant law, and that's how I came to know him. Dave is smart, conscientious, observant and a great listener - which is a skill essential for an attorney when helping clients or negotiating with opposing counsel. Dave also gives back to his community because he cares not to promote himself."
"Dave is one of the best attorneys I know. His work ethic and knowledge of the law are top notch. He cares deeply about his clients and always gets great results. I highly recommend Dave."
"Dave Clark is one of the last of a dying breed -- a fierce trial lawyer who knows his areas of practice like the back of his hand and conducts himself with the utmost professionalism. I routinely consider Dave for referrals of personal injury and worker's compensation matters throughout the Chicagoland area and trust in his abilities to achieve great results for those people."
