Hired Attorney

Dan Walker provided excellent service and a detailed breakdown of what needed to be done by me to be successful. He answered all of my questions and spent his energy and time taking care of what needed to be done. I was satisfied with his constant communication and rapid responses to my inquiries. His staff was professional and quick to respond and get me in contact with him as well. I could rest easy knowing that he was working for my benefit. I fully recommend Mr. Walker to anyone that requires legal counsel under his areas of expertise.

No help whatsoever. Did not return calls and he lied over & over again. Walker, why didn't you help? You made stuff up. Why? You lied about stairs, you lied about my time on my Walker and my cane. You lied about talking to me and my husband. He was dead.

Hired Attorney

Dan Walker is one the the most dishonest, disingenuous people I have ever encountered. After speaking to me serveral times, confirming the gathering of evidence and reviewing my case, he sent me a retainer to move foward. After no futher work done and no further communication he abruptly out of the blue sends me a letter stating he is no longer moving foward with the case. He gives me no reason why. This is after sitting on the case for almost 2 years, waiting until only 2 months before that statute of limitations for my case expires.

Typical pompous attorney. Better than thou. Liar. Could not even win a simple slip & fall case. Rude as hell. No help from his office or him. No answers. Stay away from him. Keep in mind his Father went to prison

Hired Attorney

Poor communication. Never updated me. False statements in "Letter of Demand". Never returned calls. Lied. Often asked his office for updates, got nothing. His assistant was useless to me. He claimed I lost my case, no, he lost the case, I had no say so. He claimed I could not answer Judge, I never saw a Judge. This was his job. His office told me not to go to Court appearance, this was just for Attorneys. No idea what was ever said or what happened af Depositions, although I asked. Did he even Depose anyone? Never use Dan Walker

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

You should be aware that the information we rely upon may not be comprehensive, or frequently updated.

Always research the lawyer further to get a better understanding of their license credentials, disciplinary status, background, and experience.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
