Lowther | Walker - Atlanta, GA

National Powerhouse in Federal Criminal Defense

Lowther | Walker is a preeminent federal criminal defense law firm headquartered in Downtown Atlanta. Founded in 1998, the firm has earned a national reputation for handling the most complex and high-stakes cases in the federal justice system. The firm is led by senior partners Joshua Sabert Lowther and Murdoch Walker II, two aggressive and highly experienced trial attorneys who dedicate their practice to protecting individuals and corporations from the overwhelming power of the federal government. Unlike general criminal defense firms that handle minor state infractions, Lowther | Walker focuses extensively on federal crimes, where the rules of evidence and sentencing guidelines are vastly different and more severe.

They employ a team that includes former special agents from the FBI, DEA, and IRS-CI to conduct independent investigations, often dismantling the government's case before an indictment is even filed. Whether defending a physician against healthcare fraud charges or representing a CEO in a white-collar investigation, Lowther | Walker brings a level of sophistication and firepower that is unmatched. Their track record includes successful defenses in federal courts across all 50 states.
