R. Walker Fults

Walker Fults represents a select clientele of individuals who have been charged with crimes in Dallas, Texas, and the surrounding areas. He treats every case as if it will go to trial. Taking an aggressive approach at the outset allows him to uncover every detail that could contribute to a positive outcome for his clients’ cases. Where some lawyers settle on the prosecutor’s terms, Walker Fults has successfully obtained Not Guilty verdicts at trial and had cases dismissed outright. Walker Fults doesn’t stop working for his client until he’s gotten the absolute best result.

Before opening his own law practice, Mr. Fults worked for several years at top private law firms. He was also selected for a prestigious federal clerkship at the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, where he authored over twenty-five draft orders and opinions disposing of a wide range of federal cases related to civil rights litigation, qualified immunity, immigration, and judicial fraud, among other subjects. While inside federal court chambers, he also worked up close with federal criminal cases including federal drug trafficking, federal sex abuse cases, judicial bribery, and criminal immigration matters.

Walker Fults received his undergraduate degree from Duke University and his law degree from the University of Virginia School of Law, both top-ten nationally ranked institutions. While at Duke he was published in the Washington Undergraduate Law Review for his research on driftnet electronic surveillance and its Fourth Amendment implications. While at law school, he was Executive Editor of the Virginia Journal of Law and Technology, and participated in the selective criminal defense clinic, where he was the only practitioner to obtain a not guilty verdict at trial for a client charged with a serious drug crime.

Mr. Fults has worked as a visiting scholar for International Justice Mission’s law office in Mumbai, India, where he combated sexual trafficking and prostitution of minors. He also instructed over two hundred university students during a year as a college professor in China. He has traveled to over 30 countries and is conversational in Spanish and Chinese.

Walker Fults lives in Dallas, Texas, with his wife and growing family. He is a third generation Dallas trial lawyer, and is deeply grateful that he has the opportunity to work every day in a law practice focused on bringing the best legal representation to those who need it most.
