I cannot say enough positive things about Kevin Clark & his team.I was afraid of what would happen to my children & my business.Kevin and his co-counsel,Lisa spent a lot of time preparing for my court hearings and mediation.Through out the entire process I relied on experience & advice.They helped me every step of the way.I was very happy with the end result.If you need help don’t hesitate to call them for a meeting .After my meeting with Kevin & Lisa I knew I wanted them on my team and I never looked back .

Judicious & Knowledgeable Counsel

I have consulted with, retained and referred J. Kevin Clark multiple times over the 18 years that I've known him. Mr. Clark provided me with exceptional advice when I was going thru a divorce. He was very helpful during the negotiation of details and showed great compassion for the struggles that I was facing and helped guide me thru the process. I have since consulted with Mr. Clark on other legal matters because of the confidence I have in him knowing that he would confidentially represent me and my best interests. I have great esteem and much appreciation for what he has done to help me in the past. I have had the opportunity to refer Mr. Clark to others and they too have hired him and thanked me for the recommendation.

The people that care about you.

I would definitely recommend the Law office of J. Kevin Clark, P.C. because I felt forgotten by my previous attorney.Even though my case was difficult, Lisa Peterchuck was able to make me feel heard and assured me that my rights were being defended. I’m so glad I went with this law office because thanks to them, I was able to move forward with my life. They were always there to hear my concerns and doubts. They were compassionate in these difficult times. They always took the time to explain things to me and Mary Garcia, the paralegal, was able to explain to me the legal terminology in my own language. They saved me money, time and stress by helping me settle my case in mediation. They pay attention to details.I will always be grateful to my lawyer Lisa Peterchuck and the Law Office of J. Kevin Clark, P.C.

The best

An absolutely outstanding law firm. They dealt with my divorce case. I had two attorneys prior that were getting bullied and dropping the ball on key items that ended up costing me time and excess money. Not all divorces are equal. Some are extremely complex with assets and personalities. Lisa Peterchuck is an absolute tier 1 attorney and can handle complex cases both from a personality standpoint and asset standpoint.

Post-Divorce Help

My previous attorney was not returning my phone calls. I needed help with finalizing a Qualified Domestic Relations Order and did not know who to hire. I was under a time crunch as I was moving out of the country and needed to get it done as soon as possible. Luckily, I called the Law Office of J. Kevin Clark, P.C. and Lisa helped me through the process." I highly recommend this firm for all your divorce or post-divorce needs. I wish I would have used them for my original divorce proceedings.

highly recommend Kevin, Lisa & the entire staff are awesome

Kevin and Lisa were the first lawyers that had time to talk with me about divorce, property and retirement. The Law Office of J. Kevin Clark helped me through a difficult time. After many negotiation sessions with the other lawyer, we finally settled at mediation. I am thrilled with the results." Thank you!

Divorce Lawyer

I filed my own divorce petition and tried to protect my children, my house and my retirement. Before long, I realized I could not accomplish this by myself. I hired Kevin and Lisa P. to help me. Several times, my husband tried to persuade me to agree to things that were not best for our children or me. I talked with them about his offers and I am so glad I followed their advice to stay strong. In the end, I could not be happier with the outcome. I would strongly recommend Kevin and Lisa to anyone who needs help with their divorce.

I highly recommend Kevin!!

I am so glad I found Kevin because he helped me all the way through a trial. My now ex-husband was difficult to say the least. Kevin knew how to deal with a crazy narcissist!! There were arguments over both separate and community property. We knew he would never settle. At trial, Kevin got him to admit on the stand that he had lied under oath at his deposition. The final ruling by the Judge gave me much more property than he offered in mediation! I am glad Kevin was on my side!!! Donna

He really cares about his clients.

As a retired Court Coordinator, I have worked with Kevin for over 12 years in the court system. He is always polite and professional with the Court and court staff (which is something you really want in an attorney). When I made the decision to hire a lawyer to assist my mother in her estate planning, Kevin was an easy choice. He was so kind and patient with my aging mother and never failed to ask about her whenever our paths crossed. On the day of my mother's funeral almost 2 years ago, I turned to look at all the guests in the church. One of the first faces I saw was Kevin's. He really does care about his clients. I would not hesitate to refer a friend to J. Kevin Clark for their important legal matters.

Mr. Clark helped me with a property issue. There was some urgency to the matter, and he expeditiously handled my case. He was very knowledgeable and professional and his staff is first rate. I would highly recommend Kevin Clark for any litigation needs

Trustworthy Lawyer

Kevin Clark and Donna Soules were fabulous people to work with. They did a great job answering all my questions and getting back to me within a reasonable time period. They both listen to what I wanted and made it happen. I always felt like they had my best interest at heart. I needed someone that was going to look after me and they did just that.

I Have Recommended Mr. Clark to my Friends…

I came to know Mr. Clark last year, when I made the decision to divorce after 8 years of marriage. A friend of mine highly recommended Mr. Clark. After my initial consultation, I was thrilled. He has provided a sense of calm in this tornado that we call divorce. Mr. Clark has given me guidance that is spot on every time. At one point early in the divorce, I made a bad choice. Mr. Clark saw this and redirected my actions. I’m glad I listened because, it positively affected the outcome. I have recommended Mr. Clark to friends who need a divorce or mediation attorney. I am very pleased with Mr. Clark’s knowledge, memory and life experience. I will continue to recommend Mr. Clark to anyone who is in need.

Great Choice for Me

Divorce is probably always tough. Certainly was for me. The process of getting divorced turned out to be not difficult at all. Kevin treated me and my situation personally and helped me through this time. Donna was there at all times to answer any questions. She is so knowedgable. That was only value added as his true service was getting through the process without any wasted time. Billing was more then fair and he gave me the guidance on actions to take to assure I was able to retain the assets that I felt were just. The process of getting divorced went very well thaks to both Keven and his assistant Donna. I would be glad to provide a personal recommendation. ;

Straight forward, easy to talk to & contact - would recommend

I retained Mr. Clark to handle my divorce. He was straight forward, honest and responded quickly to any requests I had. I would definitely use him in the future (if the need arose, fingers crossed) and I would highly recommend him.

Litigation Attorney | Jun 17
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Kevin is a smart and talented trial lawyer. We were classmates in law school and then we both came to Fort Worth. We often had cases against each other so I saw him in action on the other side. Kevin is a skilled advocate in the courtroom and very resourceful. He looks at all the different issues in a case and how they may fit together to help reach the best possible outcome for his clients. Now that Kevin has a busy litigation and family practice, I still talk with him often about legal matters and trial strategy since we do not have cases against each other any longer. Kevin smart, honest, and will always recommend what is best for his clients."
