We have been using Zena for an extremely lengthy custody battle. We are at 2 years now. Zena and Beth (the front desk receptionist) are the absolute most professional and organized team I have experienced. There have been times I have called and stressed the call an emergency and they always get back to me as soon as possible. Zena is knowledgeable and fierce in the courtroom. I have sent 4 friends and family members to Zena. It takes a lot to put the trust of your custody battle and outcome of your childs life in the hands of someone else, but I would trust nobody else other than Zena. A million

Highly do NOT recommend. Mr. Clark and Zena were rude and did not help my sister. They were all over the place, not keeping up with emails or any type of communication, and Zena never did what she said she would do. Took my sisters money and did a terrible job. We hired a new attorney.

The Clark law firm has illustrated the pinnacle of professionalism and regularly demonstrates their breadth and depth of knowledge they have of their industry. Mr. Clarke should be very proud of what he has built and the team he has assembled. Zena and Beth are the best team you could hope to have on your side. There is no group I would rather have represent me I will forever be indebted to them for helping me get my daughter back.

I trusted Zena and the clark law firm from all the reviews, but wow, she completely screwed us. Where do I begin, my son needed some help with his custody case. Zena McNulty was assigned for him, and what an absolute tragic mistake that was. She is the most unorganized mess I've ever seen and what an embarrassment for the law firm. She would openly joke about herself being an airhead basically. She never rssponded to our calls, or emails. Said she lost our emails. She never really even responded to the opposing attorney either. She promised several things, and failed to help us at all. She does
