Employment litigation

Mr. Clifford has represented multiple companies that I have worked for and have always been very impressed with his knowledge of the law, dedication and determination to guide us in the right direction. He has always assisted with our leadership group advice and counseling on several employment matt...ers (including FLSA issues, classifications, harassment, etc). and his advice was practical and very helpful.

Non compete

Mr. Clifford represented me on a complex non compete lawsuit. He was able to get me a deal I wasn't expecting and I was back to work in no time.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
