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!

Child Custody Case

Ours was a custody case for our granddaughter. Walter came highly recommended through internet searches and online reviews. From the initial consult Walter was supremely confident that we would win our case. He walked us through each and every step of the interview process, evidence gathering and p...retrial preparation. It has been a six month process. There were many time I thought we were never going to get custody but Walter kept his confidence and was able to calm our worries. He maintained a level of professionalism the likes of which I have rarely seen. He took a terrible situation on his shoulders and was able to bring order back to our lives. He did everything he said he would do and went so far beyond that. When all was said and done our case was the proverbial "slam dunk." Looking back on the process now, he made it seem so easy and seamless. If you need an attorney you would be doing yourself an injustice if you do not talk to Walter Moore.

I am very well satisfied with the representation of my attorney Walter Linton Moore. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would rate him a 10. He helped me with a difficult case due to my past without him I would have went to jail. Since I have him as my attorney I did not have to go to jail. I am also satisfied ...with the staff they were also good to me and very friendly. Everyone in the office worked with me, they were very understanding of my situation concerning my family. I would highly recommend hiring him on any case, criminal or civil. For every client you are considered a client for life and I was given a free will valued at $750.00 so that was $750.00 saved due to the fact of me hiring Walter Linton Moore. My case is now over.

Walter was one of the greatest choices my family ever made

One day when I thought I had lost all hope after tragedy struck my family I picked up the phone and I started calling lawyers and of course you get the response "we will call you back" and I had almost given up and I saw Moore Law Firm and decided to call and I am so glad I did. Walter has forever ch...anged our lives for the better, he walked us through our legal problems and was always a phone call away. He never made us feel like it was a business transaction he truly cares for the people he represents and you don't find that very often. Walter was honest all the way through with how much the cost would be and he did not milk us he was more than fair with his price and went beyond what any other attorney would have. His assistant in the office is so professional and kind and when I would have a moment that I was losing faith she assured me everything would be okay and it was. No one could believe what Walter had achieved in our case but he did it he won! I would recommend Walter to anyone looking for an attorney there is always a relaxed atmosphere at his office and you feel more than welcomed you feel at home. Walter really stepped up to the plate and stood for justice and truth he did not back down he fought and that is after all what getting a lawyer is all about you need someone to fight for you and if that is what you are looking for I encourage you go ahead and call The Moore Law Firm. Thank you Walter we will always be forever grateful! You are our attorney for life and our friend!
