William J Watson III

I hired Will to represent me in a slam-dunk custody case. He collected my retainer plus more for motions and papers that he claimed to have filed, but upon investigation by another atty he actually never did. In fact, he never submitted anything on my case. I asked him to file for custody and amen...d our protective order for months, one costing $500 upfront and he never filed a single thing on my case...not one single motion. I didn't receive any child support for months and he did nothing when my ex emptied our joint account. He told me to move out of my home with my child while not receiving any financial support with the promise of getting me child support at our final hearing. Instead, the other atty cancelled our hearing and Will did nothing about it. He didn't even file for child support for me. He wouldn't ever schedule the meetings he said he wanted to have, he ignored my calls and texts, he allowed my case to fall off the calendar and was so unprepared that our judge even reprimanded him during court and all but accused him of running the clock on me. Ultimately I terminated the representation, but he certainly kept every penny of the $3,000 that he didn't do a thing to earn.
