This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Saved my Career!!!

I worked at a long-term care facility as a Medication Nurse. The Director of Nursing reported me to DADS for a allegation of abuse. I have worked in the medical field for 10+years, and I love it!!! This allegation went through a informal hearing, formal hearing, and to a hearing before the Judge. I f...ought this unjust allegation with Aaron C. Graham right by my side. If it was not for his God giving skills I do not want to think about what my future would have been. If you need a attorney that will get the job done DON'T DELAY, CALL CLAY!!!

Excellent

I am very happy that Mr. Graham was successful in getting my case dismissed. He was very responsive and answered all of my questions in a very timely manner.

Outstanding

Clay did way more than he had to with my case . Simply one of the best lawyers around.

Great Lawyer

Clay was so helpful with a case I had with the nursing board. With his background as a nurse it gave him a great insight on what I was going trough and what the board would require to fix the problem. The outcome of my case ended up being the best scenario possible. Clay did a great job for me and ...was very accommodating. I would use him again or recommend him for any legal issue. Great guy!

Review For Aaron C Graham

Clay was very professional and very helpful in my case. He took the extra time I needed to explain things!. I never felt rushed during the entire process. I also felt like he always had my best interests in mind. He was also able to help me with my nursing license and guided me step for step thru tha...t process. There is not another attorney that I would recommend above Clay. He will sit with you and completely explian your situation in laymen terms and make sure you understand all the consequences risks and benefits. He will make you feel informed and as he did for me. He will makes sure your best interests are being taken care of. He has my highest recomendations for anyone who might be in need of an attorney. He did a great job for me and I know he would for any of his clients. He really knows his profession well and is very connected in the community. I could not have asked for better results. So if you need a guy who knows what he"s doing you better pick Clay Graham as your attorney. Thanks to him and his office staff they were awesome!

"I endorse this lawyer. I have tried numerous cases with this attorney and routinely seek his advice on matters. A great resource for any case but especially DWI social security disability claims and nursing matters. As a nurse himself he has a particular expertise in understanding and decoding medical records and issues. His record defending people's liberties is unquestioned and he is a true believer in the cause. He works tirelessly to protect his clients from the state. I recommend Clay without reservation."

"I recently had a chance to work with Clay on a matter that utilized his skills as a Criminal Defense Lawyer and his knowledge of the Board of Nursing Examiners. Immediately, I said to myself, I need to put this lawyer in my contacts. In the case that we worked on together his knowledge of the Administrative process with the Board of Nursing Examiners was top notch. I now have my go to attorney for my medical field clients that must deal with administrative matters. Also, he is an excellent criminal defense lawyer that thinks outside of the box to obtain the results for his clients. It is an honor to endorse this lawyer."
