Walters Law Group came highly recommended by a family member, and they absolutely lived up to expectations. Todd and Cindy were exceptional in their communication throughout the entire process, always keeping me informed and responsive to my questions. What impressed me most was Todd's approach - he provided clear guidance and valuable feedback while also ensuring my long-term interests were protected, not just the immediate matter at hand. His extensive knowledge and experience were evident at every turn. You can tell he really knows his stuff. I've now used Walters Law Group twice, and both experiences have been excellent. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing legal services.

I feel extremely grateful that I found Todd Walters to represent and led me thorough my complicated ,difficult divorce for many years. Many intricated and sensitive aspects were involved unfortunately in my divorce case. Professional, knowledgeable, reliable and very supportive,Todd and his wonderful assistant Cindy,were always prepared to approach any situation remarkably, from the very beggining. Quick responsive to all my calls/emails was another positive aspect and Todd's advice invaluable. My expectations and trust were always met with them. I'd highly recommend Todd Walters Law Group to anyone seeking a responsible, compassionate and effective attorney,a dedicated team close to you in those difficult times you need!

Watch how rude not up to on her case.

Response from the owner · 2 years ago

This office never heard of this person, never represented this person and never spoke to this person. Perhaps they are referring to a different law office, but not ours.

I DO NOT recommend Walter Law. The gentleman I spoke to for my "consultation" was rude, assuming and judgemental. If you are a female ....this is not your attorney. He did however return my money so I gave him 2 stars instead of one. Good luck to anyone going thru the divorce process!! Then post the recording and let the people be the judge..... And an eye roll...really??? So professional.
