My brother Jim and I are pleased to announce the formation of Clifford & Clifford LLC with offices in Kennebunk and Portland. A predecessor firm, also known as Clifford and Clifford, was founded in 1915 in Lewiston by our grandfather and his brother. It existed for nearly a century, until 2000, and included a number of judges and public service oriented attorneys. We hope to continue this tradition going forward and look forward to working with many of you!

Jim is admitted to the Maine and Massachusetts Bars, the U.S. District Courts in Maine and Massachusetts, and First Circuit Court of Appeals.. Jim began his career as an Assistant District Attorney in Massachusetts, then became a commercial litigation associate at large law firms in Portland and Boston. He served as general counsel to several start ups and small businesses. Jim returned to private practice in 2007, and launched a solo practice in 2010..

I grew up thinking I wanted to be a lawyer. After graduating from Colby in 1990 wiith a degree in philosophy, and then working for a year and a half at a large law firm, I began law school at the University of Maine in 1992. In the summer of 1994, I began my career in criminal law as an intern at the DA's office in Portland, and worked as an assistant District Attorney for several years thereafter. Since 2004 I have been a criminal defense attorney, representing clients throughout Maine. Consistent with my initial notions as a teenager, I love practicing law.. My wife Nori and I raised our two kids in Portland; they have both since graduated from college. For many years I coached youth sports, and since then have been involved as a board member for a number of organizations. Through both professional and life experience, I have learned that the best representation involves approaching each case from every angle, including what is important about, and important to, my client.. Most representation in criminal cases is complex, and all cases are unique. Knowing and understanding the criminal justice system, the prosecutors, the judges, the facts of the case, and imost importantly, my client, all play a critical role in getting the best possible result.
