While a relatively new lawyer, Scott Walker is an "old professional" with decades of practical experience in various roles. His legal skills reflect his personal dedication, but there is always room for him to grow from an 8 to a 10, and probably to surpass this scale, given enough time and opportunity.

Biography
SK Walker Law, LLC in Marion, IL, is a Marine Corps Combat Veteran owned law firm with SIU School of Law Alum, attorney Scott Walker, who focuses his practice to the area of Personal Injury, Probate, Wills, Trust, Estates, Contract, Real Estate, Business and Mass Tort law.
I use my military and mechanic background and training to troubleshoot, diagnose, and resolve our issues.
I listen and relate to my clients through my real-world experience, which includes 14 years of military service, with combat tours during Desert Storm and Enduring Freedom, and over twenty years of managerial experience in the maintenance, mining, and resort industries.
