About Clayton Thomas Robertson

I am a former Deputy District Attorney and Deputy Public Defender who has litigated thousands of cases, including misdemeanors and felonies. My background includes adult and juvenile cases, as well as serious and violent felonies, including sex crimes, and three-strikes cases. With these experiences, I know the criminal justice system from the inside. I am also an experienced DUI and domestic violence defense attorney. I have assisted clients in drug court, domestic violence court, and veterans court. I also consider taking on "low-bono" cases already headed for trial. ​ I am also an experienced civil litigator with a litigation background at a "big law" firm. I later switched sides to sue corporations and other entities or persons (including insurance companies, police departments, governments, physicians, and others) on behalf of individuals to obtain justice for my clients. I have seen how corporations and the government fight to protect their interests, and I use those same skills to protect individuals against the injustices inflicted upon them. ​ I am a member of several prestigious trial and attorney organizations. I am admitted in all state and federal courts in California. I graduated summa cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa with top honors from college. I later earned my MBA/JD from UCLA.

But what about *client care*? True client care goes beyond deadlines and filings; it's about treating clients as *people*-scared, uncertain, and in need of guidance. And when done...

Personal Contact: Using the Officer's Observations Against Them

03/10/2025

Written by Charles GoodwinEdited by Michelle Behan and Steven Hernandez The typical DUI investigation has three phases. It begins with the vehicle in motion and focuses on driving patterns that officers are trained might indicate impairment. Next is personal contact, where the officer will observe physical manifestations that are also purportedly correlated with alcohol ingestion and impairment. Finally, the officer will...
