This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Worth his weight in gold!!!

At 52 years old, I found myself with a temporary restraining order issued against me by a very unfriendly neighbor who exaggerated and was dishonest with the court. Phil's defense strategy was brilliant and 100% spot on. He won my case and the petitioner's request for a permanent protection order was... denied. Hire him if you find yourself in ANY legal criminal trouble. TRUST his advice. Follow his lead. This man is a consummate professional and I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again or recommend him to anyone. Yes, he's that good! He's a man of integrity as well. So glad someone in Denver recommended him to me.

A Real Cluster - We needed the Best Representation!

When Results Matter!! Preparation, Persistence and Performance are KEY. Phil Clark was an expert every step of the way when dealing with a possible Felony for our 20year old son involved in a Brawl incident while in Boulder. We interviewed over 4 lawyers seeking the "best fit" for our son's represe...ntation. We picked him and thank God today that we made that choice. His objectives were Clear and they were solid. I advise anyone needing any help with legal matters to hire Phil Clark. I am daughter of a father who practiced law in Chicago for over 48 years!! I wanted the Best for our son and that is exactly what we got. Do your homework before you hire someone! Phil's care, expertise, delivery and results for our son were outstanding.- Excellent Results!!!

Experience on both sides of the law was key

Phil helped me in a very difficult situation of a hit and run, which involved some corruption by the police. Although I highly respect law enforcement my case was clearly fraudulent. With Phil's DA experience and is ability to be an excellent voice for me. He was able to work with law enforcement.... Not only did my case go smoothly, it saved me the devastating charges that would have caused the loss of my drivers license. I couldn't have done it with out his help and expertise. He is ethical, professional and easy to work with . Thank You Philip Clark.

A great lawyer who you can trust.

Phil Clark took my 3rd DUI to trial and we won. I was always informed of what was happening with my case and I always felt secure with his decisions on how to proceed. Phil fought for me and I will be forever grateful. I felt and still do, that he honestly cared about the outcome of my case and com...pletely committed himself to winning. Phil treated me with respect and never seemed judgmental or pushy. Some lawyers are so set on doing things their way that you get the feeling that you are just a payday, not with Phil. I would recommend his services to anyone 100 percent.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I first met Phil Clark when I left the bench as a judge in the 22nd Judicial District. I thought that I had seen excellent attorneys while dealing with attorneys with 40 years of experience while I served as a judge for 7 years. However, the attorneys that I had encountered previously paled in comparison to the skill that I saw in Mr. Clark. Mr. Clark is simply a very charismatic and incredible trial attorney before juries and judges. He is held in high esteem by all of his fellow colleagues and prosecutors in all of the Front Range judicial Districts. As such, he is quite compelling at getting great plea agreements for his clients who do not want to go to trial."
