About Walker G. Harman
Walker G. Harman Jr. earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Marymount Manhattan College in 1993 and went on to receive his J.D. from Fordham University School of Law in 1999. He completed his legal studies at Fordham at the close of the 1990s, entering the profession at a moment of technological and regulatory change. The combination of a fine arts undergraduate degree and a law degree gives him an uncommon academic path among his peers.
He began practicing law the year he graduated. In 1999 he joined Dickstein Shapiro LLP, where he worked as an associate attorney. Five years later he took on a leadership role as a principal at Harman Green PC, a position he has held since 2004. That shift from a large firm environment to a principal role at a smaller firm reflects a move toward hands-on practice and firm management.
Harman is admitted in multiple federal and state jurisdictions. His admissions include the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit and several U.S. district courts: the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York, the Northern District of Texas, and the District of Colorado. He is also admitted to practice in New York. Those credentials allow him to appear for clients in both trial and appellate settings across a range of venues.
Professional memberships are part of his profile. He holds current memberships in the New York City Bar Association and the National Employment Lawyers Association. He was a member of the American Bar Association from 1999 to 2002. These affiliations place him in networks that span local and national practice communities.
Over the course of his career Harman has combined litigation work with firm leadership. He moved from an associate position at a national firm into a principal role where he oversees cases and contributes to firm strategy. His practice involves representation in the courts where he is admitted and ongoing membership in bar organizations. He maintains an active practice at Harman Green PC that centers on representing clients in state and federal courts across the jurisdictions where he is admitted.
