Top notch professionalism and service

I found myself in a rather unfortunate situation that I felt I was unjustly treated for. This was my first time in this sort of bind and sure enough I was quite concerned about it. With no one to turn to, (most attorneys were unavailable for that day or required quite a lot for the case) Attorney Wat...kins stepped in without hesitation and gave me the confidence I needed in getting this matter resolved, in addition to an offer I couldn't refuse. He was willing to meet me (whereas with others, I had to go to them) and expressed genuine concern in my case. Marc said "as long as you listen to me and do as I say, we have a good chance of getting this resolved". He was proactive in seeking the best outcome for me and sure enough, that's exactly what happened. My case was dismissed and I didn't even have to step foot in a court. I don't usually write reviews unless I feel they are warranted and in this regard, my expectations were surpassed. Attorney Watkins was a true professional and is willing to work with you as long as you're willing to work with him. God forbid I will need him again, but if I know someone who does, I'm highly recommending this gentleman.

Outstanding Attorney

I hired Mr. Watkins regarding a misdemeanor drug case for my son. Mr. Watkins was very professional, and he thoroughly explained all of the steps involving the case. Mr. Watkins had my son's best interest at heart. He was able to have my son participate in a pre-trial diversion program, since it w...as his first offense. We received a favorable outcome for my son's case. I am forever grateful for Mr. Watkins working on behalf of my son. He saved my son's future and life. I would highly recommend Mr. Watkins to serve as anyone's attorney.

Family Law

Mr Watkins has been representing me for about 3yrs now, when my child custody case was spread between two different states. Mr. Watkins and I had not met personally yet my attorney in CO highly recommended him for the case in GA. He has contuined to represent me anytime I have to appear in GA. He pro...vides professional legal advice. All cases that he as represented me in have been in our favor. He is knowledgeable, affordable and personable. I plan to contuine to retain Mr. Watkins until my child is an adult. I recommend his services to all those in GA. You won't be disappointed.

Visitation Modification Hearing

My experience with Marc from start to finish was excellent. Marc helped me out tremendously in a nasty visitation modification hearing. Marc was meticulous with how he approached the hearing and well organized throughout the entire process. Marc mediated between both parties until a logical, realisti...c resolution was agreed upon. If I were to ever need another Attorney I would not think twice about consulting and hiring Marc.

Best Attorney Out There

I have had several attorneys over the years. Marc Watkins has completely changed my perception of what an attorney can be. I can always get in touch with him. He responds to emails in a timely manner. He has a great ability to see the bigger picture. He will fight for you. Hiring him was the best dec...ision I made in my case.
