Lakeside Law Office opened for business January 2002 in the Village Commons in Lakeside, Montana. Lakeside, a small resort and skiing community on the shores of Flathead Lake in northwest Montana, had been without an attorney for about two years. At the same time, attorney Lynn Clark was looking for a small resort and skiing community close to her home where she could "hang out her shingle." The Village Commons in Lakeside provided the perfect match. Since day one, our goal has been to provide the "BEST LAW ON THE LAKE."

Our law firm represents people and businesses from all walks of life. We handle big cases and small cases alike. We represent individuals and businesses, but we do not represent the insurance companies. Our practice areas include:

Personal Injury (Including automobile accidents, premises liability and wrongful death)
Civil Litigation (Including trials and settlements)
Real Estate
Estate Planning
Family Law
Employment Law

At Lakeside Law Office it will cost you nothing to speak with us regarding your potential claim and there is no obligation to hire us after meeting with us. The majority of legal matters are handled on an hourly fee basis and may require that you pay a retainer at the time you hire us. Additionally, we work on a contingency basis for most personal injury claims and some employment claims, which means that a legal fee is paid only if we successfully obtain a recovery for you. If you need help in an area of law we do not practice in, we will do our best to refer you to an attorney who practices in that field of law. Sometimes, the best advice we can give is the advice that another attorney may be better able to handle your case.

We utilize state-of-the-art technology and cost-effective methods to provide services in a timely, ethical, and professional manner. Just like Ms. Clark and her trusted staff, our technology is ready to go anywhere it is needed. For your further convenience, Ms. Clark or one of her assistants is available to meet with you at home, in the hospital, in the evening or on the weekend.

While our business philosophy is always professional and result oriented, we accomplish our day-to-day work through a relaxed, unassuming work environment. Flathead Lake and Lakeside are not just where we work; it is where we live and it defines who we are. Ms. Clark learned long ago that her clients appreciate the fact that she doesn't not need to wear fancy Italian suits to be a good lawyer. Don't be misled by the fact that every Friday is "resort wear" day at our office and stuffy shirts and silk ties do not staff our office on a daily basis. When all is said and done, Ms. Clark and her staff are just as effective and tenacious as the big firms in getting results. We just have the ability to do it without the usual pomp and circumstance demanded by those firms.

We are proud of our extensive legal and practical experience, our attention to detail and our commitment to your success. We speak "plain English" so you can understand what is going on with your case. We practice the strictest personal and professional ethics. Above all, we are passionately committed to the needs of our clients.
