Honorable

Steve represented me in-reference to my military case. I didn't know where to turn. Then, one day I was determined to find an attorney who would fight for my rights after 36 years of service to this nation. Steve went to work on this once he gathered all the facts. He's truly cares about his client...s, and he is an amazing person. I was always well informed. His team did a wonderful job on my case. At the end of the day, I know who's got my back. In the end, Victory! Thanks Steve.

I was unjustly accused by the MPs on Fort Hood for allegedly entering with false DV plates from another car which Was mine and gave it on trading for the purchase of another car, I was arrested and subjected to criminal tresspassing charges, most of the MPs on fort hood do not know how to do their jo...b correctly, thank God went to Mr. Walden who works for Carlson law Firm, the professionalism and knowledge of Mr. Walden was crucial to emerge victorious from the case, do not hesitate to go to Mr. Walden, highly recommended.

Absolutely the best Lawyer

My child was ran over by a postal worker and then taken away from me by CPS because they said he wasn’t supervised which was untrue! I went to several lawyers who said they couldn’t help me but when I found Mr. Steve Walden he took my case immediately and was so compassionate and understanding. Not o...nly did he take the case he got my kids returned to me within a week and then won my case completely!! Every time I called or emailed him he swiftly returned my calls and emails and his paralegal was also amazing and prompt as well. He actually cares about his clients and defended me and my kids they did not let people bully us he protected us and won everything!! This man is hands down the best Lawyer I’ve ever seen. The amount of care, understanding, patience, and hard work he gave to me made me calm and had 100% faith that he absolutely knew what he is doing and he has over 20 years of experience. I can not express my gratitude in words I’m so grateful that God led me to Mr. Walden and the Carlson Law firm it was the BEST decision I’ve ever made! Thank you Mr. Walden from the bottom of my heart and my family thanks you. Your a true blessing for anyone to have on their side.

Extremely Dedicated, Knowledgeable, Empathetic, Compassionate

To say that this man is a great attorney would be an understatement. Mr. Walden not only helped me with my military defense case, but he took a personal vested interest in it because he didn't feel as if an innocent soldier should lose his career over false allegations. Mr. Walden was more than helpf...ul with legal advice and representation and due to his dedication to his job he was able to assist in having a not guilty verdict at my hearing. If you are looking for dependable representation as a soldier you should not go anywhere else besides Carlson Law Firm and more specifically, Mr. Steve Walden.

Intelligent, Compassionate, Smart and Successful

Mr. Walden handled my husband's mistakenly failed urinalysis given by the Army. He was so knowledgeable and professional and really put our minds at ease. He was successful in representing us and making the facts of the case known. The end result was in our favor and I honestly feel that without Mr. ...Walden's representation that most likely would not have been the case. We appreciate Mr. Walden and his staff so much and highly recommend him to any soldier or civilian in need of sound legal advice and representation!

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.
