Sam Clymer has a warm smile, a winning attitude, hometown values, and a strong constitution. A relative newcomer to the Denton & Keuler practice, Sam brings not only a devotion to constitutional law but also top honors in domestic relations and federal income taxation from his years at the University of Louisville Law School. He also brings a keen interest in cases concerning civil rights, the American Disabilities Act, personal injury defense, and personal injury aspects of the firm's practice areas.

As a former deputy sheriff, Sam brings to the firm an insider's understanding of law enforcement and the legal ramifications of serving the public good as an officer of the court. With this personal experience, Sam can offer a viable perspective to cases involving police officers and municipalities.

A keen eye and the concentration of an accurate marksman also provide Sam with personal character traits that not only allow him to take dead-aim with his bow and arrow on his sought-after prey but also serve him well as he tackles the intricacies of constitutional law cases.


"I am probably the closest thing to a redneck in a white-collar law firm! I have a pretty laid-back personality, and I think that brings a sense of calm to what can sometimes be tense situations. I really enjoy the more active aspects of the types of cases that I take on, and I am very proud to be associated with a firm that has such a respected reputation."
