Dedicated to protect, support and preserve the law

About Clements & Vann

Clements & Vann are dedicated to fighting for the rights of those injured due to the negligence of others.  If you’ve been injured, you need aggressive and experienced representation in order to protect your rights, your financial losses, and your family.  Many law firms advertise that they will represent accident victims (even defense firms who primarily represent insurance companies), but they lack the experience and passion to obtain the best result for you.  If Bob and Tom accept your case, you will have their personal representation, not a young associate, a group, or a paralegal.

Tom Clements and Bob Vann have been representing injured persons in trial for over a combined 40 years.  Each began their practice in larger firms, but have recently formed this firm in order to give the best possible representation and financial recovery to those suffering from the losses of income, health, and insurance issues which result from a serious collision.
More than half of their clients are referred from other lawyers who recognize that their clients are better served by a firm specializing in the trial practice of injury cases.

Clients select Clements and Vann for several reasons.  First, a history of proven results.  Both Tom and Bob have tried and settled hundreds of cases, and have consistently achieved excellent results in jury trials.   They know the law, the courts, and the local community.  Experience with the law leads to new and unique approaches.  This reputation also leads to favorable settlements without having all cases go to trial.

Bob and Tom are both active in the legal community.  Tom has been recognized by his peers as one of the Best Lawyers in America, in the area of personal injury practice.  He is a Board Member of the Indiana Trial Lawyers Association, and is a frequent lecturer in legal seminars.  Bob is an active member of the American Association for Justice and Indiana Trial Lawyers Association.  Bob also has taught Indiana Trial Lawyers the art of jury selection.

Second is the personal attention given to each client.  All clients are unique, and it is only by spending time and getting to know each individual that a lawyer can persuade others of the amount of money which will fairly compensate each unique injury.

 Finally, it’s the enthusiasm, the passion brought to each person and their case.  Not every case is accepted, and sometimes it is part of a lawyer’s job to discourage a claim than cannot be legally or morally supported.  If your case is accepted, the firm has the financial and legal resources to make sure that you obtain the best possible recovery.  Cases are handled throughout Indiana, all on a contingency basis.  No legal fees are paid until the case is resolved.
