Clark had first won repute as a criminal lawyer in a 'poisoning case' and soon acquired a large practice in civil jurisdiction as well, although his generosity and refusal 'to accept anything beyond a reasonable and modest fee' prevented him making a fortune at the Bar.
Clark advised the government to appeal to the Privy Council and went to England in 1890 to conduct the case.
Clark's draft also differed from the adopted constitution in his proposal for 'a separate federal judiciary', with the new Supreme Court replacing the Privy Council as the highest court of appeal on all questions of law, which would be 'a wholesome innovation upon the American system'.
