Timothy Walker (December 1, 1802 – January 15, 1856) was an American lawyer who founded the Cincinnati Law School and was its first dean.
In 1831 he moved to Cincinnati, Ohio, where after a year spent in the law office of Bellamy Storer and Charles Fox he was admitted to the bar and joined a practice with the politician Edward King.
[2] They were joined in this partnership by another young Cincinnati lawyer, Salmon P. Chase, who left the firm after a few months to pursue his interest in banking law.
Walker served as Dean, and continued in that position when the school merged with Cincinnati College in 1835.
[4] Walker was President Judge of the Hamilton County Court of Common Pleas, founded the Western Law Journal in 1843, and was its editor.
