Review Summer Walker

Excellent choice

Posted by

I contacted several lawyers and Summer was the last one that I spoke with. She took so much stress off of me after the consultation. Every step of the way was very thorough and I was always updated. Summer made sure that my son was always priority and this alone kept me at ease. I put the entire case in her hands and I’m not disappointed. Everything is finalized. My son and I have closelure and peace of mind. You can’t put a price on that. Thanks again Summer!!

Great Lawyer

Posted by

I used Summer Walker for my uncontested divorce. She was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. I liked that she could do everything over email/phone, as we are not in the same county and my ex-husband and I are on very different schedules it was convenient to get everything taken care of. Even after our paperwork was filed and everything was complete, she answered questions I had. I was very impressed with how smoothly everything went while we were going through a very un-smooth situation.

Highly recommend!

Posted by

Summer was great! She helped me through a very frustrating divorce that my initial lawyer couldn't really help with as he was not a family lawyer. Summer explained the procedures and the process. She listened to my requests, explained her reasonings and was very reasonable with her prices. I wish I would have found her sooner!

Professional and Responsive

Posted by

Summer was excellent throughout the process. She explained the ins and outs of Alabama law in clear, accessible terms. This made the entire process feel transparent and gave me confidence that I was making the right decision as it pertained to my own wellbeing and that of my former spouse. Summer was very responsive as well. She answered all emails within 24 hours with a thoughtful, well-researched response. When it came time to file, Summer was able to give highly specific explanations of what to expect in terms of the timeline. With all said and done, my case was resolved much quicker and more smoothly than I would have otherwise expected.

Hands down best lawyer ever

Posted by

Summer Walker is hands down the best! Military friendly and very accommodating. She's very polite, understanding, percise, hard working, and extremely knowledgeable. Being that I'm military she handled my case out of state and still was able to take away all the worry and stress out of the process. If you're reading this review, stop now and contact her.

Uncontested Divorce

Posted by

I used the services of Mrs. Walker for my divorce and she did a great job filing for it and all was done in a timely manner. Even though the divorce was uncontested, Mrs. Summer showed her professionalism and handled my case very well. It took her less than 2 months to finalize the case. I would definitely recommend Mrs. Summer for any representation regarding that matter.

A true advocate

Posted by

During my divorce, Ms. Walker looked out for me in ways I didn't even think mattered. She took my life beyond the divorce into consideration in every suggestion and decision she made. I appreciate her for that because there were days I could not see beyond that day. She is a true advocate for her clients and I would recommend her services without hesitation.
