Renee Walter is an Attorney at DZ Law, PLLC. Thoughtful litigation counsel grounded in preparation, organization, and practical advocacy is the through-line of her work.

Renee commenced her legal practice in 2025 following her graduation magna cum laude from Lincoln Memorial University – Duncan School of Law. Prior to law school, she served as a paralegal, cultivating her attention to detail, comfort with drafting and filing documents, and acquiring insight into litigation that she now applies to meet her clients’ needs effectively. Renee’s practice areas encompass Civil Litigation, Construction Litigation, Contract Litigation, and Insurance Disputes.

She helps clients understand what the dispute involves, what the litigation process may require, which documents and facts matter, what practical choices may arise, and what the next step is.

Who Renee Helps

Renee’s work is especially relevant for:

• Contractors and construction companies
• Business owners and small or midsize businesses
• Property owners and commercial property owners
• Companies involved in contract disputes
• Clients facing insurance disputes
• Individuals involved in civil litigation

Litigation Experience From the Ground Up

Before becoming an attorney, Renee worked as a litigation paralegal and developed a practical understanding of the work that moves a civil case forward. Her prior litigation-support experience informs the way she prepares cases—including drafting, filings, document organization, discovery, deadlines, case management, and client communication.

Working as a paralegal gave her an early understanding of how litigation develops from filing through resolution. That background continues to shape her attention to procedure, organization, and client communication. It is not a substitute for years of practicing law, and it does not guarantee a particular outcome—but it does explain why preparation and clarity sit at the center of her approach.

Key Practice Areas

Renee assists clients involved in construction-related disagreements, including disputes concerning contracts, performance, payment, project responsibilities, and related issues handled by DZ Law. She works to organize the project record, identify the issues that may influence the matter, and help clients make informed decisions as the dispute develops.

Contract Litigation

She assists clients with disputes involving contractual obligations, interpretation, alleged breaches, business agreements, and related civil claims. Clear documents and a clear theory of the dispute matter; Renee helps clients understand both.

Insurance Disputes
