Degen Clow entered private practice after serving as a Deputy Prosecuting Attorney for years in Pulaski County. During that time, he spent almost every day in court, which he now considers his office away from the office. He developed confidence and, most importantly, learned what it takes to beat a criminal charge.

After working as a public defender in courts throughout Pulaski County from 2015 to 2016, Mike understands the potentially life-altering consequences that a single traffic ticket or seemingly minor charge can have on a person's life, let alone a felony. He works hard to ensure that collateral consequences of any arrest or conviction are minimal, thinking about how today's actions may affect clients years down the line. He approaches each case with the same passion and gusto, whether the client faces a fine, a loss of some privilege, or life behind bars. Mike's passion extends beyond his work at Lassiter...

My approach to law is informed by struggles I've witnessed, studied, and experienced. I was a college dropout when I decided to become a lawyer, but the frustration and heartache on the news each day compelled me to get involved.

Those clients were some of my favorite people. I cherish the memories I have...

I imagine right now you are surprised to be reading this. You didn't think you would be here. Divorce is something that happens to other people, not to you. Your marriage was never perfect, but let's be honest - who has a perfect marriage? Things were never perfect, but you could live with the imperfections. For a while.

Then the imperfections grew. They grew to the point that they were major problems. Problems that were unfortunately unfixable. Now you need help and you don't know where to turn.

Well, you have arrived at the...
