If it is a hair pin type clip a rag can be used to slide between the handle and the escutcheon. Then pull either way around the base of the handle. The rag will catch the hair pin end and rotate the pin out of the handle base. If it is a straight pin, and I can't remember which it is, you have to push the escutcheon in past the pin and use an ice pick or something with a smaller diameter than the pin it's self, to push it out. Sometimes it is difficult to compress the spring behind the trim panel in order to get to the pin. They used to make a tool to push with, but I haven't seen one since my dad worked on them. Good luck.
