Chase Walker
Placing people over profits and providing legal help at rates you can afford.
Attorney Chase Walker is a young attorney full of energy and a desire to help others. Over the years, Chase has seen numerous legal issues arise with various friends and family members and often heard the same two complaints: I can't afford an attorney, and I don't feel like my interests are being fairly represented. Too often, attorneys claim to be client-centered, while simultaneously trying to figure out how they can resolve as many cases as quickly as possible, for the maximum profit, and with the least amount of time and effort possible.
After taking the bar exam, Chase put a lot of thought into what kind of attorney he wanted to be. The answer? An attorney who provides legal services to those who ordinarily could not hire an attorney or get free legal aid and one who truly puts client interests first. He recognizes that, generally, two groups of people are able to obtain legal services: those below 125% poverty who can get free legal aid, and those who are making enough money to afford hundreds or even thousands of dollars in attorney’s fees. He recognizes that there are many hardworking Americans who do not fall into either of these groups but still are in dire need of legal assistance. He also believes that clients’ needs always supersede firm profits. Sometimes this means spending more hours making less money to achieve a just result.
To achieve his goal, Chase started The CW Firm, his own firm where there are two main goals: to provide legal services to hardworking lower and middle-class Americans who could not otherwise get legal help, and to always place people above profits. He does this by charging reasonable legal fees that working-class people can afford, and by always ensuring that the result matches the client’s goals.
