Hired Attorney Mr. Douglas J. Walter

I knew from the very first phone call to the office that I was in good hands. My divorce was extremely complicated as I had been married for over 25 years before seeking counsel from Mr. Walter. His truly innate sense of compassion and understanding encouraged my strength as a woman and empowered me to do what I needed to do. The end result of what potentially could have lasted for years and years was closure,financial security, and as I requested- not to be bitter. There is so much more to “getting” divorced. Without a lawyer like Mr. Walter and Jana I feel I would still be battling and not living the life of Joy that I deserve!

Hired Attorney Mr. Douglas J. Walter

I met Mr. Doug Walter in 2018 after being served divorce papers by my then wife. He explained everything simply so I could understand and worked hard to get me a legal and fair judgement, especially in dealing with my wife's irascible lawyer. He was complemented in court by the judge as one of the best lawyers in the area. I always felt comfortable with his explanations and recommended courses of action. His patience with my questions in wading through the legal procedures and legal jargon were of great help to me and greatly appreciated. I would look to Mr. Walter in any future legal issues that I may encounter in the future.

Hired Attorney Mr. Douglas J. Walter

I met Mr. Walter 23 years ago when he was the GAL for my daughter. He was insightful and professional. He provided advice that I have followed to this day. I send my friends to Mr. Walter because I know the type of person and lawyer he is. Recently I needed legal representation and I hired Mr. Walter. He was what you want an attorney to be. We met for an indepth interview. The next time we met he knew my case, knew the law and had options for me to consider. He always asked for my input and concerns. He is both a good person and lawyer. I trust him to represent my most treasured thing, my family.

Mr. Walter is passionate, dynamic, extremely knowledgeable, and efficient! He transformed a very stressful, confusing, and emotional situation into a process that gave me peace of mind and established trust by guiding me throughout this journey. The level of communication was excellent and effective as he kept me informed, answered my questions, addressed my concerns, returned my phone calls, and responded to my emails. I highly recommend Mr. Walter to anyone needing an extraordinary and aggressive attorney who will achieve positive results!

The very first day I went to have my consultation with Mr. Walter I was a crying wreck (so embarrassing) ! He was so kind to me and I immediately felt at ease. He knows his stuff and stood by my side time and time again. Mr. Walter has represented me several times over the last 6 years and I would not hire anyone else! He is the best! Highly recommended!

Hired Attorney Mr. Douglas J. Walter

We are from out of state and I spoke with an attorney friend locally whose recommendation brought me to Mr. Walter. After speaking with him the first time, I felt very comfortable and confident with hiring him to represent my 18-year old daughter who had received a speeding/reckless driving charge. Mr. Walter advised me to have my daughter complete several processes prior to court and we did everything he suggested. I would use Mr. Walter again if needed for the area in which he practices.

Mr. Walter was amazing! My last experience with a lawyer in Hampton, VA left me wondering if it was worth hiring another. Every time we met he was attentive, caring, and understanding. I would recommend Mr. Walter to anyone needing services within his area of expertise.
