Posted by anonymous | May 06, 2025 | Hired Attorney

In my opinion, this is the worst lawyer ever! He is more concerned over his bank account than he is about helping you! Run away!

Walter Hammon is the worst lawyer imaginable! He is only interested in how much money he can take from you, not how to best represent you!! Read all the negative reviews! Look for specific examples why many people hate this man so much, not just a feeling of how great he is (which is probably written... by him or someone who is paid for writing reviews on his behalf). He lies, steals, makes up bills, pads his bills, and doesn't even provide necessary info to the court if it conflicts with him stealing more money. I could write an entire book of all the things he did to help his bank account and completely ignore what was best for me. Run away from him as fast as you can!

Screwed my childhood

This man screwed over my mom in divorce court. He pressured my mom into selling our house, so then he could take the money from selling it. To pay him, my mom had to use my college money. He screwed both my mom and I over. Do not go to this guy. He is terrible, and will not help you whatsoever. He wi...ll 100% scam you. Do not hire him.

Purple nose that grows

This attorney was appointed to represent my "best interests" but because of his purple nose issue, this attorney should have Just Said No but didn't because over the next 7 years he took $50,000 out of my college fund and it wasn't until my brother became an adult that I was able to address the court... and move 3 hours away from Walter Hsmmon. This attorney ruined my childhood on purpose and now I am writing this review cause sooner or later people, we kids get to have a voice

Too Old Too Desperate

I was Walter's clients in 2005 and can't seem to get rid of him. He won't settle my case and I am most likely going to listed as a defendant, with Walter as the plaintiff, very soon. Do your children a huge favor. Don't hire this attorney.
