"As an Appellate Law Specialist, I am in the unique position where I can see the work done by many different attorneys throughout California. On a number of occasions, I have been asked to write difficult trial motions for Mr. Clancy. Because of this experience working with Mr. Clancy and his team, I have come to know Mr. Clancy on a professional basis. He has a reputation within the Legal Community of being a strategist without rival and dogged advocate for his clients in the field of Child Molestation Cases; a field where many attorneys struggle because of the complexities of the cases and the need for an understanding of child development, memory, suggestibility, and other specialized fields of study unique to these cases. In my opinion, Mr. Clancy’s reputation is well earned, garnered from over four decades of complex and challenging trial advocacy. I look forward to working with Patrick Clancy in his new role as “Chief Strategist” of the Innocence Legal Team."

"My name is Shep Zebberman. I am a criminal defense attorney in Encino, CA. I have known Pat Clancy for almost 3 years. We have worked together on many cases and I have also gone through numerous training sessions he has taught on the area of child molestation, child abuse and various other sex crimes. He is extremely knowledgeable on the law and may have more experience in the sex crimes field than any other attorney in California. He has provided training to the Public Defender’s office on various sex crimes and has successfully represented countless clients accused of child molestation, child abuse, and various other sex crimes. In addition to his knowledge, experience, successful track record , he also communicates well with his clients and is able to put their mind at ease through a very difficult situation."

"“Patrick Clancy, Founder of the Innocence Legal Team, is among the top five child molestation defense trial attorneys in the United States. We jointly created State Bar of California approved continuing education courses covering all issues in child molestation defense and have taught hundreds of attorneys in the techniques of defending these cases. I was his expert witness in a case that NBC filmed for three weeks and made into a television special. We have also worked on child molestation cases as attorneys together. I know of no one that has tried and won more child molestation defenses.” Demosthenes Lorandos, PhD in Psychology, Doctorate in Law, Licensed in New York, Washington, D.C., Michigan, and California. Noted author/co-author of “Cross Examining Experts in the Behavioral Sciences”, “The International Handbook of Parental Alienation Syndrome”, “Parental Alienation - Handbook for Mental Health and Legal Professionals” and “Benchbook in the Behavioral Sciences”."

"I endorse this lawyer. “My name is David Pastor and I have been a criminal defense attorney since 1977 in Walnut Creek, CA. I referred my first case to Pat Clancy over 30 years ago. Since then I have referred countless clients to him for representation. You may ask why I would refer a client to Pat when I could do it myself. Pat has devoted his law practice to defending those accused of sexual offenses. I have watched him in court and his knowledge, skill and expertise are unmatched among California attorneys. I want my clients to receive the best attorney and Pat is the best. Very few attorneys specialize in sexual offenses. Pat has excellent people skills with clients. Judges and District Attorneys all across California know that he will leave no stone unturned for his client. He gets excellent results. I highly recommend Pat Clancy.”"

"Sex abuse cases are the most difficult cases to defend because society's abhorrence of these crimes and the consequential rush to judgment. Mr. Clancy is one of the best lawyers you could have at your side, should be falsely accused of this type of crime. I've attended his seminars and accessed his information that he provides freely on his website. For these reasons, I wholeheartedly endorse him as a fighter who must overcome almost insurmountable odds."
