BEST ATTORNEY-BAR NONE!!!

I am a Ph.D. candidate in the field of criminology, and I know what makes a good attorney. I give Mr. Walker my most sincere endorsement. He is honest, caring, knowledgeable, and an zealous advocate for his clients. He was truly worth every penny I paid him! On a more personal note, the family law ca...se I went through was the most difficult experience of my life, and Mr. Walker went beyond the call of duty by being a friend, counselor, and comedian-who could always turn my frown upside down-in addition to being my advocate. I would recommend him-highly-to anyone going through any type of family law issue. He will give it to you straight on what you can expect, and he will let you know the potential outcomes and alternatives to any issue. He earns his keep. He is articulate and knowledgeable. Furthermore, he has a wonderful rapport with most of the judges and attorneys in this area. I can not say enough about how amazing he is. Look no further, you just found the best attorney around!!!!!!!!!

Commercial real estate lawyer | Feb 03

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Mr. Walker combines both the effectiveness and professionalism one seeks in a litigator. His skills extend outside the courtroom where he is better than most at facilitating an open dialogue increasing the possibility of resolution. If resolution fails he knows and understands the law making him an efficient advocate. I am sure his skills translate to his non-litigation clients. I would recommend Mr. Walker for numerous types of cases. Mr. Walker is also a credit to the legal profession and the public as he spends considerable time volunteering in leadership posts in the local bar association and as a conciliator. I have known Mr. Walker both as an adversary and a colleague for approximately four years."

General practice lawyer | Jul 09

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"Many lawyers these days lament the "good old days" when the practice was more civil. Mr. Walker is the most civil opposing I have ever worked with. Even more important to prospective clients, he's as good a lawyer as he is a person. So, whether you are looking for general litigation counsel, a domestic relations attorney, or an estate planning attorney, I highly recommend Mr. Walker."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
