excellent consumer attorney

I met John last May after being sued for credit card debt. John represented me against the junk debt buyer and won the case outright. I have since learned about consumer protections in place and continue to exercise my rights. I have collected monies from one collection agency already on FDCPA violat...ions and have two more suits yet to be filed this fall. These debt collection agencies are clearly guilty of violating federal law and they too will be writing me a check. Call logs and voice recordings are my weapons of choice. Why would a well funded large scale collection agency violate my rights and the rights of others? Because they largely go unchallenged by consumers. Know your rights and exercise them. Spend some time on the excellent web site that John Watts has put together. I would highly recommend his services. I believe he's one of the best consumer attorneys out there.

Jeff, You are absolutely right -- why would these guys break the law and risk getting sued? "Because they largely go unchallenged by consumers. Know your rights and exercise them" Perfect advice!! Thanks for letting us help you and for leaving some great advice in your feedback. I join with you in encouraging everyone to learn their rights and then take massive action. Thanks my friend!

Highly Recommended

I consulted with Mr. Watts regarding a false credit reporting/identity theft issue that was troubling me. Despite having a law degree myself, I found dealing with the behemoth financial institution causing the problem, and the complexities of disputing its report, to be overwhelming and unproductive.... Mr. Watts expertly guided me through the process, pointing out various pitfalls to avoid and recommending important steps to take to ensure a satisfactory result. Mr. Watts' knowledge, responsiveness and courtesy are unmatched. I recommend him without reservation to any consumer who needs an advocate in his corner.

Tracy, Thank you for leaving us feedback. False credit reporting (especially ID theft) is very frustrating. That's actually what got me started focusing on consumer protection issues -- dealing with this as I was buying a house. You were wonderful to chat with and while you did not need our help, I'm still glad you reached out to us. :) Thanks again for everything including the nice feedback. John Watts

A guy you would hang around

I ran across John one day when I had been called and told the sky was falling by a debt that was 9 years old. John kept me informed of every aspect of the case and always did it with a smile on his face. He also educated me on my rights and how to handle anyone who calls with threats. I have enjoyed ...my time dealing with John and now consider him a friend.

Review- John G. Watts

We received a summons we knew was incorrect, but the credit agencies were not interested at all in reviewing our request. I reached out to John Watts and was immediately put at ease that there were options for us. He clearly explained our rights under the credit laws and listened to my concerns. ...He was diligent in filing our complaints and interceding for us with the credit company, and was able to correct the situation far above what we had hoped. He was so easy to understand and trustworthy. I would recommend him to anyone struggling with credit card companies - you need someone to help you with your rights as a consumer.

Sue, Thank you for the review! We try to lay out the options -- that's what I like when I'm needing help. To understand my options in plain English. Thanks for letting us help you and for being such an easy client to work with. And we appreciate you leaving us feedback also! John Watts

Effective and responsive.

John Watts will return your calls. I have retained dozens of attorneys over the years and John Watts is one of the best. He is knowledgeable, responsive, trustworthy, and most of all effective. He does a great service representing the consumer here in Alabama. Give him a call. You will feel the same....

Dr. Ring, Thank you for your review -- as far as the calls, Carolyn and Randi keep me organized and on schedule. I'm not any good at multi tasking so I have all of my calls scheduled -- makes it doable for me. :) Thanks for your kind words -- appreciate them! John Watts
