DWI

I was charged with a DWI from 10 years prior. Mr. Walsh was able to get my criminal charges dismissed. He is the best of the best!

Recommending Walsh Law Firm

Steve Walsh and his son, Kyle, represented me in a DWI jury trial this past Friday. The jury came back after 17 minutes of deliberation with a Not Guilty verdict. I would like to say thanks to the Walsh Law Firm for supporting me and helping me out through all of this trouble that I was in. I woul...d recommend this firm to anyone who needs assistance with any legal matters. The Walsh legal assistants are awesome.

DWI

I was charged with a DWI back in July and Mr. Walsh was able to get it off my record and off my license completely.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
