About Patrice Meredith
Patrice Meredith Clarke built her legal foundation at the College of Charleston, where she completed a B.A. in 2009. She earned her J.D. from the University of Baltimore in 2012. Those years set the stage for a steady practice in both state and federal courts.
She is a shareholder at Iliff, Meredith, Wildberger & Brennan, P.C. At the firm she combines courtroom work and counseling for clients. Colleagues describe her as a careful analyst who prepares cases methodically and adapts to developments as they arise. Her role as shareholder involves case strategy, client advising, and mentoring newer attorneys in the firm.
Clarke is admitted to practice in Maryland, to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, and to the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland. She regularly files and appears in matters in state and federal venues and handles procedural and briefing responsibilities when cases advance beyond trial court. Her courtroom experience includes written advocacy and oral argument in filings across the represented jurisdictions.
Her professional affiliations reflect steady engagement in the local and national bar. She has been a member of the Maryland State Bar Association since 2012 and of the American Bar Association since the same year. Locally, she joined the Anne Arundel Bar Association in 2015 and maintains that membership today. Participation in these organizations has kept her current on procedural changes and practice developments that affect clients in Maryland courts and in the federal system.
Clarke’s trajectory is one of consistent practice rather than public spectacle. She combines an academic grounding from Baltimore and Charleston with day-to-day litigation and advisory work at her firm. That combination underpins how she approaches matters—by focusing on facts, applicable law, and practical next steps. She currently practices as a shareholder at Iliff, Meredith, Wildberger & Brennan, P.C., handling matters in Maryland and in federal courts including the U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit.
