Attorney Don R. Herrling started the Herrling Clark Law Firm as a sole practitioner in 1957 with a desire to provide exceptional legal services to the people in his hometown. His reputation and practice grew steadily and, under his leadership, the firm developed to its present size and stature. In 1993, Herrling served “Of Counsel” to the firm.
Attorney Don Herrling passed away in June 2022, and it was with heavy hearts we all said our goodbyes. We are all humbly grateful to have been a part of Don’s journey, and it is with the greatest pride, gratitude, and good fortune that we continue his legacy of providing exceptional legal services for the community. We are so grateful for Don’s contributions to our firm and to his clients over the years, and we will be forever thankful for his friendship and counsel.
