General practice Attorney | Feb 11
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
"When I think of Lou, the first word that comes to mind is "wisdom." He has seen it all and done it all, and that wealth of experience informs the way he lives life and the way he practices law. As an attorney in Southwest Tennessee, I occasionally hear from a potential client whose matter should be handled in Mississippi instead. I do not have a Mississippi license, and I almost always refer those clients to Lou."
DUI and DWI Attorney | Oct 15
Relationship: Worked together on matter
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Walker is extremely knowledgeable about Mississippi DUI laws and is always the first call I make when I need clarification on a Mississippi license issue."
