NO MORE FALSE DEBT COLLECTIONS

I had debt collectors calling me over bills that were not mine! The debt collectors had also reported these inaccurate debts to all three collection agencies. Some even tried to sue me! I contacted John and he was instantly willing to help me. He is very knowledge in this area of the law. John w...as able to stop the harassing phone calls, clear my credit reports of all false information, and did a wonderful job representing me in the court. Needless to say, John was able to get the job done!! Also, his assistant Heather was wonderful with taking my messages and assisting me with my appointments.

Kim, Thank you for letting us help you! And thank you for leaving us a review. You know that saying, "When it rains it pours?" That's what you experienced. Not just debt collectors calling, but credit reporting and suing. You did a great job standing up for yourself and refusing to give in to these abusive collectors. Thank you for letting us work with you and thank you for the nice comments you left us! Have a wonderful day.... John Watts

Informative and Honest

I hired John when some debt collectors were harassing my family and me. I was so frustrated and embarassed and felt I couldn't do anything to stop them until I talked to John. He made sure we understood everything that would happen and kept us updated throughout the process. Now I feel so relieved an...d John helped me to see I don't deserve to be treated how the collectors were treating me. I recommend John to everyone.

Amber, We enjoyed helping you. Amazing that these collectors are willing to harass family members to collect a debt. They do this because they assume no one will stand up to them. But you did! Thank you for letting us help you and thank you also for the kind feedback! John Watts

Knowledgeable and experienced consumer lawyer

John is easygoing and a pleasure to work with, but he's also a strong advocate and knows how to get the most for his clients. Very knowledgeable about consumer law, especially about all these mortgage issues.

Clinton, Thanks for the nice feedback! Mortgage issues can get a bit complicated due to the complexity of the frauds and violations of the law. We enjoyed being able to work with you on this case and thank you again for your feedback! John Watts

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
