BEWARE

Hired this man for a divorce case. He has taken over $1700 from us and has done nothing. He won’t return phone calls, text or emails. He was recently arrested for not showing up to court for his own case so he has no problem not showing up for his clients. He is a fast talker and will promise you the... moon and stars just to get ur money but then you will never get what u paid for. Do not hire this man. I have been in contact with more then 15 other clients of his that he has taken money from. There is also a fb page dedicated to the people he has taken money from and never helped them. Walter Moore will take everything you have and give you nothing in return. Please do not hire this attorney.

I do not recommend this lawyer

I'm very unhappy with my experience with Mr Moore. It's been months and my case was not handled the way I feel it should have been. I have not recieved all documentation on my case and Mr Moore has not been providing me with itemized billings of his work. I feel that he is extremely unprofessional in... the way he speaks to me. I have fired him and am now ha if. To seek help to correct mistakes that were made and hope that I still have a case.

Custody battle

My attorney was the absolute best!! He not only knows the laws like the back of his hand, but he is a bit of a hard ass in the court room and doesn't let anyone get past him. He got me everything I asked for and more... He is a father himself so he has value for the family unit and wants the best for... the kids. He is very straight forward and gets right to the point. I was very impressed and would recommend him to anyone I know! I am so greatful to have come across Walter. I'm sure if it wasn't for him I would not have had the outcome I did. Which was better than my original request!
