Clifford A. Wolff is a litigation attorney based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States.

Clifford A. Wolff was born in New York City on April 7, 1970, the son of Judy Wolff and Malcolm Wolff. Malcolm Wolff was a vice-president for CBS in New York City from 1980 to 1987. After working in the corporate environment, Malcolm Wolff pursued the artistic path, attending the Florence Academy of Art in Italy. Malcolm Wolff currently has several sculptures on permanent exhibition in Asheville, North Carolina, St. Augustine, Florida, and Las Vegas, Nevada.

Clifford Alan Wolff was the namesake of his great-aunt, Claire Alice Wolff, who hosted a talk radio show in New York City from 1942 to 1945. Her radio show was recorded and broadcast from the 86th floor of the Empire State Building in the CBS Studios. The radio program was discontinued when a B-25 Mitchell crashed into the north side of the 79th floor of the building. In 1946, Claire Wolff conceived the idea of the first interfaith postage stamp. It was known as "The Four Chaplains" and commemorated the sacrifice of four clergymen in the United States Army who gave up their life preservers to other service men aboard the troop transport Dorchester. The four clergy died so that other servicemen could live. The United States Post Office approved the stamp in 1948 for general sale and circulation. It was the first postage stamp ever issued by the Post Office commemorating a Jewish individual, Rabbi Alexander Goode. From this recognition, there now exists a stained glass window in the chapel of the Pentagon.
