I am attorney Christopher P. Walker, and I have been practicing law since 1994. As a native of Southern California, I understand the concerns and challenges of people in the area. For some, bankruptcy is the right solution to overwhelming debt. For others, a secure estate plan is the answer to safeguarding their financial future.
A Bankruptcy Lawyer and Estate Planning Lawyer practicing in complex business and commercial litigation, bankruptcy, estate planning, probate and corporate law since 1994. Orange County Attorney Christopher P. Walker and his firm focus on providing cost-effective, expeditious, and results-oriented legal service, as he defends California clients in a wide range of commercial disputes, probate matters as well as estate planning.
Probate is the legal process through which a deceased individual's heirs receive his or her assets, settling outstanding debts and taxes of the decedent using funds from the estate and wrapping up other affairs. The failure of an heir or representative to meet probate requirements can result in personal liability.
When creditors come looking for their unpaid bills, debtors are subject to legal action. Bankruptcy law is a legal discipline aimed at helping those who are unable to pay their debts. Some bankruptcy filings manifest from medical bills, the loss of a job, economic changes in the area, and negligent spending.
Although most people never predict their financial situation will decline to the point where they can no longer cover their obligations, declaring bankruptcy can be a helpful option when facing serious economic hardship. If you are experiencing mounting bills, endless harassing phone calls, and threats of foreclosure on your mortgage, your circumstances can quickly become a situation that seems impossible to recover from.

Mr. Chris Walker was recommended to us by one of our close friend. He was very professional and very accommodating. He explained to us about the wills and family trusts and we felt comfortable after that. Thank you Chris and Laurie for all your help and will definitely recommend you to our family and friends.

After some research on Yelp, we came here many years ago to set up a living trust after having our first son. We were able to quickly make an appointment and Christopher was very patient and knowledgeable when answering our questions. The whole process was very quick and easy so I highly recommend his services.

I came across the Law Office of Christopher Walker as a participant in a legal plan available to me through my employer. We've been wanting to complete estate planning for a few years but we kept delaying it as we were nervous about the process, and honestly, the topics that come up during estate planning can be difficult to discuss.
Initially speaking with Laurie, she provided us with information about the process prior to our initial meeting with Chris, which gave us an advantage to understand what is expected as well as giving us the opportunity to come to the meeting with a list of questions

Very professional, knowledgeable and down to earth lawyer. He even accommodated us on the meeting time and day. Laurie is very personable and super nice lady. Thank you for taking care of us in a very timely manner. We were referred to them by my husband's coworkers (at least 4 families) so we knew we can count on Chris and his fantastic team.

Chris was very patient in working with us to set up our Living Trust given our complexities and family dynamics. His proven skill and experience made the process smooth and now gives us the peace of mind that our estate is now properly set. His fee was very reasonable as we were quoted considerably more elsewhere. We were recommended to Chris by our CPA and we could not be more pleased! Chris exceeded our expectations! T&S

I'm glad that I choose to do Buisness with the Law Office of Mr. Walker. He and Laurie were so helpful, throughout the entire process and most importantly they were very prompt with communication. Believe me Ive dealt with attorneys that at best will reply back to me 2 days later with the most vague responses. So it was very refreshing to deal with Chris and Laurie who were always there to answer any and all of my questions right away. I would definitely recommend their services to everyone.

Mr. Walker is very professional. His staff is very nice and easy to work with. I got all 4 documents, Trust, living will, power of attorney, and last will, done through him. They take care of everything. I just need to tell him what I want, then review and sign it. He put all documents in a nice binder, and also PDF file in a USB drive. I've already recommended him to my coworker.

This is the first time I'm writing a Yelp review but I feel like it is well deserved. Anyone who is going through a bankruptcy knows how difficult and stressful it is on you and your family. I searched the internet and did some research and decided to roll the dice with a bankruptcy lawyer named Christopher P Walker. Come to find out it was the best decision we have ever made during a difficult time in our lives. From the beginning to the end of our chapter 13 bankruptcy Chris was patient, professional, courteous and just an all around good guy. It has been a long road but I will tell you

I reached out to him for attorney advice and sent him a long message trying to see what route I should go and if he can help at all. All I got back was a text message that said "Good luck." He seems arrogant and not really willing to help. He doesn't care for clients and in our first phone conversation he cut me off 7 minutes into the conversation and had his assistant email me. Yeah, not for me. Most of these attorneys are just in it for quick money not to really gIve you the right advice
