Every way to reach Macaluso Law Firm in one place.

  • Who owns The Walker Law Group?

    The Walker Law Group is owned and run by Mike Walker, who founded the firm after more than 35 years practicing law. His son Josh works alongside him as the firm's second attorney, and his son Alex leads client communication.

  • Does it cost anything to talk to an attorney?

    No. Consultations are free, and we work entirely on contingency, so you don't pay us anything unless we recover money for you.

  • What areas do you serve?

    We're headquartered in St. Petersburg and represent clients throughout Tampa Bay, including Tampa, Clearwater, Bradenton, Sarasota, Brandon, Tarpon Springs, and New Port Richey, and we take cases across Florida when someone needs us.

  • What's the best way to contact The Walker Law Group?

    Whatever's easiest for you. Fill out the free case evaluation form online, or call us directly at 727-865-5724 — either way, you'll hear back from our team, not an answering service.

  • How do I know if I have a case?

    You don't need to know the answer before you call. Tell us what happened, and we'll review the details honestly and tell you plainly whether you have a case and what it might be worth — with no pressure to hire us either way.

FAQ

  • I was just in an accident, what should I do?

    Seek medical care first, document the scene if it's safe, avoid giving a recorded statement to the insurance company, and contact Macaluso Law Firm directly — Lane responds personally to calls and texts.

  • Is there an urgent lawyer needed after a car accident in Louisiana?

    Not every accident requires immediate legal help, but if someone else's negligence was involved, reaching out quickly protects both medical documentation and the timeline for filing a claim.

Whatever just happened, the first step is the same: get medical care, then reach out. Lane responds personally to every call and text.
