About The Law Office of Clarence Butler Jr., LLC

A trial litigation practice representing individuals and corporations in federal, state, civil, criminal and personal injury matters, with work in Chicago, Atlanta and Washington. Clarence Butler Jr. cites over 25 years of trial experience, roughly 30 arguments before the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals, and admission to the Illinois, D.C. and Georgia bars, the U.S. Supreme Court bar, and federal district courts in Northern Illinois, Northern Indiana and Eastern Wisconsin. The practice emphasizes a balanced perspective drawn from both prosecution and defense work, including complex pre-trial motion practice and interlocutory appeals.

He was sole trial prosecutor in United States v. Derrick Mosley, an internationally covered extortion and wire fraud case involving Gary Sheffield and DeLeon Richards-Sheffield that ended in conviction on all counts in 2005. His civil background includes work as an Assistant Corporation Counsel in the Torts Division of the Chicago Department of Law, and his defense background includes service as a Chicago Public Defender and private practice in Washington. He received the Executive Office for United States Attorneys Director's Award from the U.S. Attorney General.
