So far I am amazed

I called this law firm this morning in a panic about my situation. I was amazed Brian answered the phone himself, I caught him on a break I guess. He listened patiently to everything I said and then gave me a lot of information. One of the things I requested of him he said is no longer done. I was de...sperate and could have easily charged me and then give me bad news, He explained why it does not happen and we made arrangements to meet for possible representation in a few days. I am turning myself in at the county jail this evening and feeling a lot more comfortable after just a few minutes with Brian, I think he really cares and is very qualified. I will be using him as soon as I am released tomorrow. Thank you Brian, you do not find many attorneys like you

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

reviews are so important

I'm having a problem with a company not adhering to its contract with me. Mr. Walker called me on his day off to get specifics and agreed to intercede on my behalf. He was very cordial and gave me a fair, fixed price which I agreed to. It being a holiday weekend, there hasn't been time to carry ou...t his plan, so I can't say if I'm happy with the outcome yet. But I was impressed with the reviews of Mr. Walker that I'd read, so chose to contact him. If this doesn't lead to the settlement I'm hoping for, it won't be his fault, it'll be the company we're dealing with -- I've been trying for months and gotten nowhere.

Awesome experience

My experience with Brian Walker was excellent. This was the first time I had ever had to hire a lawyer so I did not know what to expect. I can honestly say I have no complaints about the whole process. He always updated me on where we were in the process and handle everything with little error of my ...own. Awesome lawyer would recommend him to anyone

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.
