Criminal Defense 12%

Being arrested or under suspicion of a crime is serious and potentially life changing. It must be handled by an experienced attorney. When citizens defend themselves from accusations of a State or Federal Government; they are at an unconscionable disadvantage. We level the playing field. Robert D. Clements, Jr. & Associates will take the fight to the State and force them to conclude that your particular case may be one that they need to make go away.

12%
Family 12%

First and foremost, we never forget we’re dealing with families. A “Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead” legal approach can be financially and emotionally devastating. Make no mistake, we work aggressively on our client’s behalf, but one of our most important jobs is to provide perspective---to help you see the big picture. We work to achieve the best possible solution for you and your family’s long-term satisfaction.

12%
Litigation 12%

Even if you have a perfectly legitimate beef with them, the big insurance companies will do their best to intimidate you. They don’t intimidate us. For starters, we know how they think. If they suspect you aren’t going to take them to court, insurance companies aren’t likely to pay what they owe. When necessary, we are quick to file a lawsuit against them. We give insurance companies every opportunity to do the right thing but we are not afraid to go to trail.

12%
Personal Injury 12%

Unlike many personal injury attorneys, Robert Clements is Board Certified in Personal Injury and Board Certified in Civil Trial Advocacy. In other words, he’s not afraid to take on the big insurance companies or other defendants in court. This is to your benefit financially; often, a lawyer’s reputation that he actually tries cases improves your chances of a better outcome, as opposed to simply accepting the defendant’s settlement amount.

12%
Probate 12%

Dealing with wills and other issues within this area of the law can be emotionally draining. For this reason, we personally tailor our approach to suit your needs. If you prefer, we’ll handle a majority of the work involved, with very little input required of you. However, where appropriate, you are also welcome to take part in the process and do some of the work yourself, which saves you money.

Beware. Suspended Lawyers .

PUBLIC WARNING FOR PARENTS CONSIDERING THIS FIRM This firm does not operate with a resolution-focused or child-centered mindset. It appears to operate on a profit-driven, high-conflict escalation model — one that exploits emotionally desperate parents, not protects them. Attorney George A. Ogge...ro, who represents this firm, has a documented disciplinary history with the Texas State Bar — including multiple probated suspensions for neglecting clients’ interests. This information is publicly available. From direct experience, it is clear that the strategy here is not to reach resolution, but to intentionally inflame and prolong custody conflict, even when no emergency exists — because longer litigation equals higher billing. Families deserve attorneys who de-escalate when appropriate, protect children first, and don’t weaponize the legal system for profit. If you value ethical guidance, strategic clarity, and child-focused stability — proceed with extreme caution.

Mr. Indianer: You are not (and never have been) our client. We know all our cases and everything that is going on in them. Occasionally, when we do a really good job for our clients, the party on the other side gets very angry and resentful. In this case, you kept your child away from his mother for months and we went into court and got a court order requiring you not to interfere with your son's access to his mother. You have now, once again violated the court's order and are still keeping him away. On the same day you filed this, false, criticism of us, you had received our motion asking that you get only supervised visitation. Contrary to your claim that we stir up controversy--only to enrich ourselves--we have incurred thousands of dollars in fees--that may never be paid--helping to ensure your child is returned to his mother. The only person driving up attorney's fees in this case...is you. You think that--if you make this expensive enough--we will abandon her and our client will be defenseless. Since you are representing yourself pro se, you are free to call Mr. Oggero and discuss this matter in full at any time. Mr. Oggero is an excellent lawyer who we are proud of and his success in helping your son is what triggered you to file this untruthful review. Anyone who is fortunate enough to get Mr. Oggero as their counsel will get top notch legal representation.

Attentive and Trusting

I hired Mr. Clements and his firm to represent me in a family law case that I knew would be complicated and exhausting. Despite the complexity, Mr. Clements and his firm continued to stay in constant communication with me, talk me through every question I had and ensured that they were fully attenti...ve at all times. I couldn't be more pleased with the service and attention I received during my case. Thank you!

Litigation lawyer | Oct 10

Relationship: Worked for lawyer

"I endorse Bob Clements for many reasons. He is truly a "Lawyer's lawyer" who I would personally consult or engage to represent me if need be. Passionate--as well as compassionate--Bob deeply cares about people. He quickly earns the admiration and respect of his clients as well as his courtroom opponents. His patient, lazer-like focus, coupled with his double board trial certification, makes him a formidable adversary that you absolutely want on your side. I have worked many cases with Bob; we have tried jury trials and other contested matters together, so I can say what an honor it is to know and work with this well-seasoned litigation champion."
