Lawyer Overview

An Atlanta native, Clint received his undergraduate and law degrees from Emory University. Upon graduating from law school, he accepted an eighteen-month appointment as law clerk to the Honorable John J. Bruner of the State Court of Fulton County in Atlanta, Georgia. As a result of his experiences as law clerk in being able to observe and work with some of the best trial lawyers in the state, Clint came to understand that it was the individuals of our society that were in the most need of strong and zealous representation. At the end of his clerkship in 1984, Clint joined the Savannah firm of Middleton and Anderson, one of the cutting edge law firms in Georgia, in the representation of individuals injured as a result of exposure to toxic substances. Throughout his tenure with that firm, first in Savannah and later as partner in charge of their Atlanta office, Clint focused on a wide variety of personal injury matters, including toxic exposures, automobile and medical malpractice.

In 1992, Clint opened his own law office in Atlanta, and in addition to his previous areas of interest, expanded his practice to include consumer class actions and the representation of individuals injured as the result of legal malpractice. Throughout his career, Clint has acted as lead counsel in all state and federal courts of Georgia and has appeared before the Georgia Court of Appeals, Supreme Court of Georgia and Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals in appellate argument. He has also been active in the Georgia Trial Lawyers Association serving as Law Pac Chairman, State Bar Liaison and member of the Long-Range Planning and Publications Committees. In 2002, Clint became a member in the Atlanta office of Martin & Jones.
