Statement from Steven Walker concerning Korey Kiger and Walker Kiger, PLLC - September 18, 2025

In my 20 years of practicing law, I have always conducted my practice in an ethical and moral manner—always putting my clients’ interests first, and I will continue to do so. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for Korey Kiger, a former member of Walker Kiger, PLLC.

On September 3, 2025, I immediately reported Korey Kiger to the North Carolina State Bar when I discovered that there were discrepancies in a separate trust account that Mr. Kiger had sole control and authority over, and which contained his clients’ funds. To say that I was shocked, saddened, betrayed, and angered by this discovery would be an understatement. Mr. Kiger had hidden these actions from not only his clients, but from me and others. I trusted Mr. Kiger, and what has transpired was not consistent with the honest, family-oriented individual that I believed Korey to be when I brought him into the office to practice with me. I have worked diligently over the last two weeks to attempt to assist his current clients in pending matters and give all the guidance that I can to assist them through this process. I have been fully cooperative with the State Bar and with law enforcement to attempt to assist his clients.

Most importantly, my deepest sympathies and resolve stand with Mr. Kiger’s clients who have been harmed. I will continue to work diligently to help them through this process to my best ability. I also want to assure my clients that any money they have in my separate trust account is completely accounted for and is safe.

I do not plan on making any further statements at this time to the media, and any media inquiries should be directed to my email.
