Joseph Walker represented me in a Jones Act lawsuite that went to trail, and he nailed it. His knowlage of the Commercial Diving Industry is based on personal work experience he gained as a Closed Bell Diver. Having Joseph as my defence was a privilage. He is professional, meticulous and an expert in the applicable law. Ill give Joseph my recomendation for all divers who have been injured at work, he will put up the fight for you! Thanks Joseph. You changed my life.

After being involved in a diving related decompression incident, I was blessed to have Joe as my attorney. His professionalism and meticulousness were essential during the legal road that he navigated me through. No matter the obstruction the insurance company used, Joe's preparedness and abilities bested them. Our rapport that developed throughout our journey together demonstrated to me that if I ever had to face a legal battle, I would want Joseph Walker in my corner.

Great lawyer.. I would recommend Joe Walker. He took my case when no other lawyer would. My case was hard to fight, he never backed down. He faught all the way through. I explained my case to him and he said, ‘ let me work my magic’. He was right!! He’s a very smart intelligent guy that will win a case for you. If I had to do it all over again, Joe Walker would still be my Attorney.

Mr. Walker handled a breach of contract by my medical insurance provider. He is actually a dive attorney; i.e., he represents plaintiffs who have been injured while scuba diving on the job. I think he can get a grip on and handle any case in the civil arena with speed and brilliance. My little case was settled with one letter from him to the insurance provider. Not only did they pay the claim, but I was awarded a rather astonishing settlement in light of the fact that the case was very small. Breach of contract is serious in any event, but my case was small in that they refused to pay for a diagnostic procedure that was clearly their contractual responsibility. I have no idea what he wrote in that letter to them but it worked. A unique feature about this lawyer: He is the only lawyer in the USA who holds a Saturation Diving Certification for the North Sea. The North Sea is where the Titanic went down. It's dark, rough icy water, and very deep. I think he is getting picky about what cases he takes on. He is a great personal injury lawyer. He handled this case for me years ago and I should have written this review about him sooner. I don;t understand that he has no industry recognition. He has numerous newspaper article about his court room victories framed on his office wall.
