Helped me as I faced a debt collection lawsuit

I was struggling tryng to defend a lawsuit on my own. I had very few options as I was in debt and being sued with the very real possibility of losing the case. With the potential loss of the lawsuit I was facing garnishment of my wages which would have been catastrophic for my family. Because I was b...eing sued I started getting advertisement letters from attorneys. Mr. Watts advertisment letter was the second one that I received. The first letter was from a bankruptcy attorney. I made an appointment with the first attorney who only had it in his mind to steer me toward bankruptcy. That first attorney offered no options and said if I was not filing bankruptcy he could not help me. When I received Mr. Watt's letter I started reading it and actually began to see other options. His letter was very informative and helped me to understand the ramifications of the lawsuit that had been filed against me. His letter offered a free phone consultation so I called. Best call I ever could have made. With no strings attached Mr. Watts took the time to understand my situation and actually offered options other than bankruptcy. Mr. Watts is actually a problem solver and does not cherry pick his cases. He will listen to you and take action on your behalf. He worked diligently to bring my case to a very equitable resolution. I would not hesitate to call Mr. Watts for any legal matter.

Have no fear! John Watts is here!

John Watts is unlike any lawyer I have ever met. He is personable, knowledgeable, respectful, and an all around great guy. I met John because I had been sued by someone I didn't even know, for a debt I didn't know existed. Panic set in. I was horrified, and had no idea what to do. That is when I cal...led John. He explained things to me in a manner that was easy to understand and quieted my fears. He took my case, and won! He then helped me sue them, and won again! John always took the time to meet with me, or talk with me on the phone. He was always prompt at returning phone calls, answering emails, or sending updates. I never questioned whether my lawyer was really working for me. I pray that I don't have to, but if necessary I would use John Watts again, and again, and again. If you need a lawyer who will be on your side, and in your corner...look no further!

Deborah, Thank you for taking the time to leave us this feedback. It is scary being sued -- especially by some company we have never heard of for a debt that we don't know supposedly exists. You did great -- we love representing consumers who want to understand what is happening and what their options are going forward. We could not have won the case or sued these jokers in federal court if you had not been strong and willing to fight so congrats to you! Thanks for letting us help you and for your kind words.... Best wishes! John Watts

I was terrified!!!!

I had been contacted by a shady organization trying to scam me for money. I was scared because of the threats of criminal action. Once I met with Mr. Watts, he eased my worries, explained the law and how to "put the ball back into my court". I was so pleased with his professionalism and knowledg...e. Thank you Mr. Watts! You will definitely get my endorsement!!!!

Billie, Thank you for your review. Some of these debt collectors don't merely cross the line -- they can't even see the line anymore. We were happy to help you and thank you again for your kind words! John Watts

The Jack McCoy of Consumer Debt Collection

I contacted John in early 2013 when I was being sued by a junk debt buyer. I am an attorney and even I was confused, anxious and overwhelmed by the process; I could not imagine how terrifying this would be for the average consumer. John was patient, constantly kept me informed of case updates, and... always explained my options. John took the time to meet with me in his office and he explain to me, step by step, how the process worked and what we needed to do to defeat this junk debt buyer. I did exactly what John told me to do and we prevailed. He, never once, batted an eye over the 10,000 questions I asked him. John is extremely professional and an outstanding attorney. I would recommend him to any colleague, family member or friend. He is THAT good.

Foreclosed Home

It has been a pleasurable experience of working with Mr. John, Mrs. Randi, and his law firm. The time that I have worked with Mr. John on my foreclosure case from start to finish, I have never been mislead by him. He walked me through step by step. He is very knowledgeable, understanding, determine,... and ready to fight. Remember folks my house was already foreclosed, and he is able to undo the foreclosed and got my house back. Believe me, there is still hope even when your house is under foreclosure. Just don't give up. I have learned a valuable experience in my case. Learn to trust the person that you hired. I believe that you will win half of your battle through "trust." The other half, Mr. John can use his professional tools to work for you. I am so bless to find Mr. John. I highly respect and recommend Mr. john to anybody that needs help and advice in legal matters. Great work, excellent communication, intelligent, and friendly. Well done!!!! ( Hope to work with Mr. John again in the future. I know this is not what you want to say to an attorney). From the very bottom of my heart, I want to wish everyone success and happiness.

Ven, I sincerely appreciate your very thoughtful review and feedback. Dealing with a foreclosure is very stressful and when it has already happened, and you want to stay in your home, that makes it even more stressful. Thank you for putting your trust in us and letting us help you. We can't always do it but sometimes we can get the foreclosure undone. And when someone is willing to work as hard as you were to make it happen then you greatly increase your odds of success. Thanks again for your very nice review and letting us help you. John Watts
