Walter is an OUTSTANDING attorney! After spending six figures with another firm without achieving my most important custody or estate goals, I hired Walter as my appellate attorney, and he delivered a significantly better outcome. He is responsive, level-headed, and genuinely cares for his clients.His exceptional knowledge of case law and expertise in navigating the nuances of the family court system truly set him apart. Genuinely, my child and I have a much brighter future thanks to Walter. Highly, highly recommended!

I couldn't be more proud to have been represented by Walter. I had consulted with 4 different attorney's before my consultation with him, and Walter was by far more impressive. In fact, He was referred to me by an attorney that I consulted with. This said attorney informed me that I would need a great trial lawyer for my situation. She told me to call Walter. You see, I am a father and 2 weeks before I hired Walter​ I lost a child custody case for my then 6 year old son, even though I won the recommendation from the DRO Evaluator. The firm that was representing me at the time had dropped the ball and didn't recognize the DRO Evaluator as a professional witness.​ This made it easy for the opposing attorney to object to having the evaluation report admitted into evidence. A huge blow to my case. It was the only hope that I had at winning.​ Walter let me know that he would have to convince the judge that the ruling may have been incorrect because important evidence was not heard/seen by the court. Or more simply put, convince the judge that she got it wrong. A very difficult task indeed, but Walter knew that this judge was very technical savvy and she would prefer to make sure that she made the ruling that would serve the child's best interest. He scheduled a court hearing with the judge and both parties. This will be the first time I would witness how well Walter knew his way around the courtroom. As lame as this may sound, I was in awe. Walter explained to the judge why this case should be reopened and the importance of admitting crucial evidence. He assured the judge that it would change the ruling of the case. Then he carried on by citing examples of other cases and explained that the DRO Evaluator was very clear with her recommendation. Keep in mind that the judge has not seen the evaluation report. The opposing attorney tried pushing back but the judge had heard enough. She did not allow for the case to be reopened for new evidence, but she awarded me with a new trial. The opposing attorney asked the judge for an explanation for why she granted a new trial. The judge replied that she needs to hear the crucial evidence. Walter had planted the seed. Next up was my deposition. Now during the original trial I wasn't the best witness. Walter coached me on proper witness etiquette, especially during the cross examination. I wouldn't exactly say that I nailed the depo, but I was much better under his tutelage. I also have to mention that Walter, and his amazing paralegal Vanessa, had collected supplements and discoveries from the school, hospital, and from the opposing side that would help strengthen our argument. He knew what he needed to gather to help my case. I had a new DRO Evaluation a month later, and I won the evaluators recommendation again. This is what I mean about handling your end of the bargain. I don't want to give away any of Walter's trial strategies. But I will say that he had me well prepared for the trial, and he definitely was too. After the closing statements from both sides, the judge said that she will review some of the info and get back to us the next day. I was confident that Walter represented me to the fullest. He put it all out there and didn't leave room for the opposing counsel to pick apart our argument. Walter, thank you so much for taking on my case and going to war for me. I am more than happy with the way that you handled every aspect of my case. Win or lose, I was more than satisfied with the way that you represented me. If I had to do it all over again I wouldn't have changed anything that you did. By the way everyone, we won!

Walter knows the law. He is aiding me in my appeal at thr appellate court level. I wish I could have had him for my trial and we likely would not be appealing.

I was recommended Walter by a friend after trying to do my divorce myself … After trying to figure things out and only to get a run around and set backs for over a year. I tried reaching out to legal assistance and other lawyers only to be told they’ll charge me an arm and a leg or they couldn’t help me… being a single mom with low income this was not possible for me and then I reached out to Walter and he was able to help me and make my process so much more stress free and once he took over I was divorced within 3 months. This man is amazing and I’d recommend him to anyone who needs help. He’s not like the rest of the sharks out there :) always fast to respond and answered all of my questions.

I had a very complex and difficult case. Walter was able to handle everything very professionally and build not only a solid offense, but a very strong defense. He walked me through the entire process, always keeping me informed, put my mind at ease, and was able to handle everything thrown at him. I can't say enough great things about Walter, he was truly an advocate for me and my children. Exhibiting compassion, understanding, and tremendous knowledge of the law. This man really knows his stuff & will fight for you! Not only did I win, but I won huge! If you are looking for a reputable, family oriented, and skilled lawyer look no further - Walter is your man. You will not be disappointed.

He called me after I had put in a request with some details about my case. He asked me what I wanted as my goal after I had explained everything over the phone, which took quite some time. Not once was he rude or try to rush me. He told me what the best thing to do would, that I hadn't even thought about (and I've been obssessively reading in the family law books, legal practice procedures for a now). I'm meeting with him for the first time tomorrow. But I already know he's the attorney for my babies and me. After speaking with several different attorneys, the only one I feel confident enough to have high hopes of winning my case, is with him. I can't wait for this upcoming process to start. I'll review again when it's all over. But I don't believe there could be a better attorney for us!!!

I was referred to Walter by a family member and I feel so lucky to have had Walter as my attorney. He guided me through my divorce with honest, accurate, helpful and kind guidance. He never made me feel like like my questions were not important or like my case did not matter. He is truly a professional and someone who makes you feel like you are his only client, when you know you are not! Kudos to Walter for being able to balance this dedication in this challenging field. I will refer any future family and friends who need his services, without a doubt! He’s one of a kind! Thank you so much Walter!

I contacted Walter on a weekend and he was all ears, and I don't think most lawyers make themselves available on the weekend. Walter has currently taken on my case involving a custody dispute and child support battle. After I informed him of my situation, he was very empathetic to what I am going through, but also very insightful into the laws regarding child custody and child support. I like that he is eager to help. I have a very challenging case where I moved out of state and he is helping me gather my facts and evidence so I can stay in my safe environment with my family. We haven't had the hearing yet, but I will be back to leave another review regarding the outcome of this case. I have all the trust in the world that Walter will help me win my case.

I hired Walter on short notice. Like 4 weeks short notice! Very bland, his words were short but useful. The day of my trial.... So scared and nervous. Knee's trembling every step I took to the court room. I had not yet Mr. Walter... Ugh... My stomach is turning.. I walk into the full court room and look to my right! Mr. Walter is sitting there waving at me with a full smile and full of all this positive energy that clearly filled the entire court room. I can go on and on about Walter! He won my case! & He's dear to my heart. Thank you Mr. Walter for fighting for what is the truth and the right way. Love, Monica, Madison & Magdalen Mommy & her girls will never forget you. God bless you

I wasn't sure that Walter and I had communicated enough before court because he didn't talk much when we would meet, but when it was his time to present my case and defend my position, it was like two different people. He had memorized every detail that we had in our conversations and was able to put everything in its proper context. No detail was missed. His knowledge of the law protected me, but it was his attention to detail that impressed me the most. The outcome of His talent and skills resulted in retaining 85% of my estate. I would highly recommend Walter.
