Clark's pilot experience & training and his aeronautical engineering studies at the U.S. Air Force Academy have contributed to his successful representation of aviation clients in litigation arising out of more than 100 aircraft (fixed wing and helicopter) accidents throughout the United States and in Canada, Mexico, Peru, Venezuela, Colombia, Haiti, the Bahamas, Italy, England, Australia, New Zealand, Pakistan, the Maldives, and on the High Seas.
