Brian Walters is an exceptional trial attorney. I have had the privilege of observing him in court and can attest to his poise, professionalism, and preparation. He has a good rapport with judges and is respected by his peers in the family law bar. He is also a tireless worker. No matter the hour, he will respond to my emails--and I'm not even a client. Finally, Brian is just plain smart. If you have a contested family law case that will likely go to court, I encourage you to hire Mr. Walters.
