Clay is AMAZING! He is very professional and compassionate. He cares and treats you like family. Clay is very knowledgeable, determined and keeps you updated every step of the way. I was very fortunate to have him on my side and it was an absolute pleasure working with him. I highly recommend Clay.

Clay represented me in a recently settled case. He was always responsive and attentive to my questions and concerns but more importantly compassionate about my situation. Before now, I have never been involved in something like this and he made the whole process comfortable for me. I am so glad that Clay was in my court during this ordeal.

Clay and I have had several cases together through the years. He represents his clients with tenacious compassion. He tried an emotional and fierce medical malpractice case involving the death of a young mother which I defended in 2014. The case and had many discovery issues most of which we resolved by agreement. Clay did an excellent job for his clients and responded to every challenge with skill, knowledge, wisdom and integrity. He is honest, capable and an honor to our profession.

Mr. David Clayborne "Clay" Snell is an excellent trial attorney. He has tried numerous cases in my courtroom both by jury and nonjury. He has always exhibited high ethical standards and is most capable in the courtroom. I highly recommend the highest rating.
