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.

Guardianship expenses

I made an appointment with Mr. Clements because I have a complicated family situation in regards to guardianship expenses. After explaining at a high level and into some details on the tangled web of these dynamics, Mr. Clements was able to expound in detail some guidance for requesting recovery on ...some legitimate expenses in this on-going guardianship of my loved one, my father. If you need to speak to a lawyer for ANY type of guardianship concerns,,,GO now and see Mr. Clements!! He will pass on quality and informative advise and you will feel at ease. Let the Clements firm help you take the stress out of your worries!! THANKs and thanks again Mr. Clements for your time and for your wisdom. Your longevity as a professional lawyer displays your expertise and knowledge!

Efficient and effective

Robert is an excellent listener and skews to the most effective and pragmatic solution in a systematic and thorough fashion. I met with him for advice on how to clean up a divorce decree that was executed with some concerning gaps. I will hire Robert.

Personal Real Estate Litigation

Our 1st consultation with first Mark Byrne, an attorney in Bob Clements firm was very thorough, investigative, detailed, and much provided feedback and advice that was needed by myself and spouse in a very complex personal real estate litigation going over many years with no end in sight and mounting... legal fees. Later in the initial consultation, Bob Clements joined the discussions, and added even continual assessment and consultational which also settled in my wife and I a go forward aggressive plan of proactive offense vs reactive defensive which we have been doing for many years. We both see a green light at the end of this tunnel which has lead up to this time high anxiety, tension, grief, and depression at times.

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."
