Posted by anonymous | February 26, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Expungement

Waste of my Money and Time. No action and All Talk.

I hired Walter 2015. Paid him 1000 dollars for a simple Expungement case. I even looked up the code sections and gave them to him.(I am still waiting) He had two other attorney's there at the time. I went by his office several times. He Always had New Employees or A new attorney to help him with his ...cases. I did speak to him on occasion when i just dropped in unexpectedly and caught him there. He always gave me the same old line. Had to hire new people and he would work on my case asap. Also even offered me a 1500 dollar credit for future work. I said that would be worthless since you can not even do the work i hired you for. I said well put it in writing. Never did get that or any other promised paperwork or results. I think i may need to write a letter to the State review board and see if anything can be done. I mean this does sound like theft to me . I would not recommend using him from my experiences with him. Not dependable,No integrity,no action and all talk.

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.

Good lawyer

Walter handled my divorce last year and although things were slow at times, he did a good job. He was having some problems with a couple employees at the time which I understand has been resolved. He is a good man.

Hired attorney

Walter Moore and his team of staff did an outstanding job defending and fighting for me and my children in my divorce case. Mr. Moore is very proficient, liable, and hands on when it comes to representing his clients. Always responded back with me regarding any questions or concerns I may have had us...ually within the same business day. He made a point to make sure I understood everything throughout my whole process. His passion for his clients and law definitely shines when in the court room. I not only got a fair trail, but also at an affordable rate. This guy is awesome and he and his team rocks! I could never thank Walter and his staff enough. In difficult times we all need an advocate to fight for our rights, stand up to the opposing side and take action, I'm grateful to have had the pleasure of Walter and his firm fight for me!

Walter Moore is an eagerly propelled fresh force to be reckoned with criminal attorney ready to fight hard for the ruling you want. My personal experience wi...th The Moore Law Firm was incredible. Walter Moore makes it priority to build a firm personal relationship with all of his clients. I felt defended, secure, and confident in revealing the most terrible private moment of my life with them because I could see I was properly being represented from the beginning until the end of my court case. Though the conditions surrounding my case were tedium at times, The Moore Law Firm devotedly kept me informed of my case status. The Moore Law Firm got me my life back, helped to keep my children safe, and continues to astound me with their powerful expert skill of problem solving no matter what legal obstacles may be associated with the case.
