About

Walker M. Duke is a seasoned personal injury attorney who has won tens of millions of dollars for his clients since co-founding Duke Seth, PLLC. A tenacious fighter, he prides himself on listening to the needs of his clients and crafting legal strategies to obtain maximum compensation for their injuries. Walker believes the key to success is hard work and thorough preparation, creativity, and never losing sight of his client’s goals.

When clients turn to Walker for help, they are often facing the most difficult moments of their life, whether it is a catastrophic injury, the wrongful death of a loved one, or the loss of the physical ability to take care of the day-to-day activities of life. He understands both the physical and emotional toll of a personal injury, and he prioritizes letting his clients know what is happening in their case, but also explaining why things are happening so his clients understand the legal process.

Walker’s dedication to service extends beyond the courtroom, as he helped develop the Duke Seth Charitable Matching Program, in which the Firm matches any donation made by its clients to selected nonprofit organizations, and he has served as a judge for moot court and mock trial competitions.

Throughout his career, Walker has been a frequent writer and speaker on cutting edge legal topics and has helped educate other attorneys. He has received numerous legal awards, including being named a Super Lawer four times and a Rising Star five times by Thomson Reuters. He is a lifetime member of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum and the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, a member of the College of the State Bar of Texas for his commitment to continued legal education, and a member of the Texas Trial Lawyers Association—the preeminent organization for personal injury attorneys in Texas.
