FLORIDA BAR v. CLARK (2026)

PUBLIC REPRIMAND

Jason Harrington Clark, the Supreme Court of Florida, by order dated December 18, 2025, approved the conditional guilty plea for consent judgment, and directed that you receive a public reprimand, administered in writing by the grievance committee chair.

You were found to be in violation of Rule 4-5.5(a) of the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar.

As a member of The Florida Bar, you have the responsibility to conform your conduct to the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar. Moreover, because you are only licensed to practice law in Florida, you have an obligation to not engage in the unauthorized practice of law outside of the state of Florida. In this case, your decision to send correspondence to an individual and a company based in California about California matters and the contents of that correspondence contributed to your actions being flagged by the State Bar of California as the unauthorized practice of law. You must refrain from engaging in conduct that runs afoul of the Rules Regulating The Florida Bar. Your conduct in this instance was neither ideal nor consistent with the high standards expected of a member of the bar.

This reprimand is now part of your permanent Florida Bar disciplinary record. You are further advised that while this reprimand does not affect your privilege to practice law, future misconduct will. The lawyers of Florida expect your future conduct be in compliance with your oath and you should demand the same of yourself.

Lisa A. McNelis, Chair
