Hire this Lawyer!!

Craig Walkon was very professional and knowledgeable in our case. He was efficient and kept me informed of the process and even after we were done with our case and settlement was paid, he went beyond the call of duty and got us an additional refund from Medicare. I would HIGHLY recommend Craig Walko...n for your medical related case. You will be happy with his office, practice, and services.

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.
