As stated by Attorney Walker, “I have colleagues and friends working in the Allegheny County Courthouse and they are unfortunately unable to speak out about the issues and conditions facing them during this global pandemic due to fear of reprisal. I don’t have those concerns, and neither do many of my fellow defense attorneys.”
“We are not in the courthouse every single day, so we are not immediately aware of any positive tests until the news filters through the rumor mill. This is neither effective nor efficient. We need transparency, complete contact tracing and mandatory temperature checks at the Courthouse”, says Attorney Walker.
To assist with the temperature checks, Attorney Walker recently donated touch free thermometers for every entry point of the Courthouse in an effort to slow the spread of Covid-19.
“This should be the standard for entry into the Courthouse. If Court administration won’t make the call, maybe it is incumbent on members of the Defense Bar to do what is right and ensure a safer courthouse for everyone.”

4th of July Weekend is here! The grilling, electric slide, red-solo cups, fireworks, “adult beverages” and other entertainment can be observed in backyards, on facebook live or some other live streaming service.
However, BE SMART! Everything in moderation, stay hydrated, designate a driver, don’t drink and drive or drive under the influence. With the holiday falling on a Thursday, most will party until Monday morning, which is ok!
According to Attorney Walker, “Too often, we have clients enter seeking help after a DUI arrest that clearly could have been prevented if they had just planned ahead. Tragically, we also counsel clients who enter our office after a family member was seriously injured or killed by a Drunk Driver. In the end, no one wins when someone decides to Drive while intoxicated or under the influence of an illegal drug. We just want to do our part to eliminate DUI offenders.”
Don’t be a statistic this year, please don’t drink and drive. Plan ahead, get an Uber, Lyft, ride share, taxi or have designated driver on deck to help you out. As an incentive, we will pick up the tab for your safe ride home!
Enjoy the 4th of July weekend, but please don’t drink and drive!

Enjoy your family and friends this Thanksgiving Holiday
The Thanksgiving Holiday has arrived again! More eating, drinking, sleeping, laughing, watching games and reminiscing with old friends and family.
It is true that the Wednesday before Thanksgiving (Thanksgiving Eve) is one of the busiest evenings of the year: People are shopping, networking, travelling and yes, drinking.
Just as you and your friends are meeting up to have a drink before the big day, officers are setting up DUI checkpoints and increasing patrols for the evening to keep our streets safe.
Grab a Bottle and Kick Back this Thanksgiving Holiday, But be Smart! – Frank Walker LawAgain, we don’t to spoil the mood, but you must plan ahead before you hit the town this Thanksgiving Weekend: Please don’t drink and Drive!
But all of this can be avoided with just a little pre-planning: Schedule an UBER, a LYFT, call a cab, designate a driver prior to going out. Hydrate, consume food and pace yourself over the weekend. Don’t feel pressured into bar hopping simply because you have the day off on Thursday and maybe Friday.
Simply Put: Have fun, but do so responsibly. If you’ve had too much to drink, call Cab, Uber, Lyft, send us the receipt and we’ll reimburse you for the ride!
Again, although the Free Ride program is an excellent way to avoid an accident, arrest or worse, it should not be construed as assisting, servicing or encouraging binge drinking or irresponsible behavior.
The message conveyed from the Free Ride Program is simple: Enjoy the Thanksgiving weekend, but please Don’t Drink and Drive. We don’t want you calling our office from the jail over something that could have been avoided.
So Happy Thanksgiving! Enjoy your family and friends. Consider all that you have to be thankful for and let’s help each other keep the roads safe!

Enjoying the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations this weekend? Join the crowd! St. Patty’s Day falling on a weekend, with the opening weekend of the #NCAA Tournament, what could go wrong? EVERYTHING!
The weekend is officially here and the plans have been made . . . Watch some games, hit the St. Patty’s day parade and party till daybreak. Good Times. Hey, you’ve worked all week, why not kick back and enjoy the weekend? Right?
Listen, we are by no means attempting to stop your party train, all we ask is that you enjoy the festivities responsibly: Please don’t drink and Drive! Police Officers will be EVERYWHERE this weekend. Uniformed, undercover, off duty, doesn’t matter. Officers will be hitting the streets searching for impaired revelers in an attempt to hand out citations for Public Intoxication, Public Urination, Underage Drinking, Disorderly Conduct, Fake ID or arrest you for DUI, Underage DUI, Reckless Driving or any other alcohol related offense.
Take a Selfie at the St. Patrick’s Day Parade …CHECK! Just don’t Drink and Drive! A Tip from Frank Walker Law.
A conviction for a summary offense hurt in the long run. Moreover, an arrest for DUI or Felony Aggravated Assault can lead to hefty fines, a criminal record and even jail time. Moreover, with the slow process of the jails during the weekend hours, you may sit in jail the entire weekend until you are able to see a judge for bail. It’s just not worth it.
Question for you: With all the planning for the weekend, did you think about how you will get home safely after all the bar hopping and green beer chugging? No? Well, we can help.
Pick your Ride Home BEFORE you pick your Bar this Weekend! A Message from Frank Walker Law
At the outset, our motto is simple: Don’t Drink and Drive! Don’t over indulge! Before you put on your ‘Kiss me I’m Irish’ shirt, Leprechaun beard and stuff your purse with Guinness Beer (Yeah, we know) make sure you designate a driver, schedule an Uber or a safe ride home.
In a nutshell: If you are unable to Drive due to your “enjoyment”, call a ride home, send us the receipt and we’ll reimburse you! (Check out the Rules and Conditions Below)
Toast with Friends AFTER you schedule the UBER! A Tip from Frank Walker Law.
Although the Free Ride program is very popular with party goers, club hoppers, promoters and the like, the program should not be construed as assisting, servicing or encouraging binge drinking or irresponsible behavior. Rather, the message conveyed from the Free Ride Program is simple: Enjoy the St. Patty’s Day weekend, but please Don’t Drink and Drive.
Again, enjoy St. Patty’s Day with your family and friends. Hit the parade, watch the games and check out the parties around the city, but please Don’t Drink and Drive! A DUI arrest is a terrible way to spend the weekend.

Attorney Frank Walker Stuffs the first Back to School Backpack
Attorney Frank Walker of Frank Walker Law continues to give back to the Pittsburgh Community in a meaningful way by donating hundreds of Backpacks and School supplies to children in the Pittsburgh Public Schools.
According to Attorney Walker, the decision to donate the backpacks and supplies was easy, “I received a phone call from a Pastor in the East Hills District of Pittsburgh asking for backpack donations for some of the kids in the district. I immediately thought of the impact of sending kids back to school with supplies and the knowledge that they have support from the community near and far. To me, the decision to invest in children and positively impact the community is always a great investment.”
The black and gray backpacks imprinted with the FrankWalkerLaw logo, include basic supplies such as a spiral notebook, ruler, pencils, water bottle and pens. Some of the younger children will also receive a box of crayons. The backpacks and other items from businesses and organizations will be given away at the East Hills Community Day at the East Hills Community Pavilion, 2264 Bracey Drive, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15221 on Friday August 25, 2017.
Attorney Walker hopes this community event will serve as an example to the local community of the importance of giving back, “Too often we turn on the news and hear about the negativity in World, hopefully this event will serve as a reminder of the good things people are doing right here in the community by volunteering their time and resources to give back in a tangible way.”
Attorney Walker thanks the local chapter of Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Incorporated for assisting in the packaging project and TLJenkins Photography for helping document this community event, “My Fraternity stepped up in a major way in providing some helping hands in the packaging process and TLJenkins Photography again helped out in capturing the process of this inaugural event. I’m hopeful for a great event and wish the children a successful academic year.”
