AVOID

Like other reviewers stated couldn't get a hold of him, wouldn't return calls, and when I finally got a hold of him and set an appointment he stood me up. If he is defending you good luck. He knew nothing about my case file and got me the same sentence as if I were already a convict. No fight whatsoe...ver in this man. He is not a criminal defense lawyer: it's almost as if he works for the prosecutor. He will not even speak up on your behalf, like a previous review said "no fight in him at all."

VERY unprofessional & no help at all.

I had Mr. Clark as a court app attorney back in 2012. He is very lazy, passive no fight in him at all, & very unprofessional. In a nut shell he made me truly genuinely believe he could do this or that selling me dreams. Ended up getting my max for an open plea, and the mfer rubs me on the back saying... when I get out of prison if I need any help to contact him, the balllls!!! then Randall came back and bench warranted me back. I had no idea what for, when I went to court he didnt even know what the hell was going on or why I was back. DEFFFFF. Would not put my freedom in his hands from personal experience.
