Walt Moffitt- GA DUI,criminal defense,divorce,personal injury,family law,traffic
I am a dedicated attorney serving clients across the vibrant communities of Northwest Georgia. My deep understanding of the local legal landscape and my commitment to providing exceptional representation allow me to guide clients through their legal challenges with skill, compassion, and unwavering dedication.
Before founding Walt Law, I served as an assistant District Attorney in NW Georgia, which was instrumental in launching my career in criminal law litigation. This experience in the Lookout Mountain Judicial Circuit provided me with a solid foundation for my practice.
For many years, I was a partner at a legal firm in Rossville, GA. In 2023, I made the decision to open my own law office. Now, with my dad serving as an "of Counsel" legal advisor, I have complete control over all aspects of law office management and client follow-through. This autonomy allows me to ensure that every client receives the thorough and personalized service they deserve.

Free Consultation
Our law firm offers a no-cost initial consultation in order to assure that the potential client does not miss an important deadline in their pending case. Particularly in criminal law cases, missing a court date or deadline can cause severe problems, plus is may possibly cause the judge to think that you are not taking the legal matter seriously. Also, if a domestic violence TPO has been issued in a family violence case, our potential client will usually need guidance on what to do, what to NOT do, and how to proceed with the case. For personal injury cases, it is vitally important to capture images and measurements as soon after a car or truck accident as possible. Losing that evidence can diminish the value of some cases. Driving under the influence arrests usually have an immediate driver's license suspension that needs to either be appealed to the GA DDS, or have a 12-month ignition interlock device installed in one vehicle, to preserve the right to drive. -
Contingent Fees
In personal injury cases, you pay no fee unless you win. Our fee agreement will lay out the way the case settlement of jury verdict is disbursed. The good news if that Walt will come to your location, if you are injured, in pain or unable to come see him at his law office. -
