AMAZING!

We were scared, confused, angry, and feeling rather hopeless. Then we scheduled a consultation. John Watts stepped in and took charge of a case we could not begin to understand. He explained everything he was doing each step of the way. He represented us when we were being sued by Midland Funding. We... had no idea who they were or what this debt was. When we were discouraged he showed us that anything is possible. I could go on and on about how wonderful he is, but after one consultation, you'll see for yourself.

Shannon -- thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review. Being sued by Midland Funding is a scary thing to go through. We always have to look at any challenging situation and say, "Where's the good I can find here or how can I turn this negative situation into a positive one?" You did a great job of keeping your confidence up and taking action. Thank you for letting us help you and for your helpful feedback. John Watts

Debt Collection Case in Small Claims Court

Attorney Watts and his team listened to my case and explained clearly my options. He was curtious and followed-up on my case without being pushy. He explained what I should expect from the opposing attorneys and the Court process. He described what I needed to do to respond. The process unfolded muc...h like he described. With Attorney Watts' help I won my case easily. It looks easy in retrospect but I was afraid before I met him. He put me at ease! I highly recommend Attorney Watts if you need legal help.

Frederick, I'm so glad you took the time to give us some feedback. You deserve the credit for winning your case and what happened with you can be done by many folks in Alabama. Try your own small claims case. It saves money and if you win, we can often sue the debt collector. It is not for everybody but you are a perfect example of someone who took the initiative, found out your options, picked one, and then executed that option perfectly. So congratulations and I'm glad we had the chance to play a small role in your big victory. John Watts

John is EXCELLENT, get your peace of mind back!!!

My review is lengthy but I want people to know if you find yourself in a situation like mine, there is help. I received a letter in the mail I was being sued by a debt collector. My heart just sank when I read what was happening. I went through many sleepless nights wondering what to do and how I ...would get myself out of the situation. There were letters from lawyers in my mailbox offering help and I started to call them for help but I thought it was strange they knew what was happening to me. I thought could this be a scam? I decided to search on Google the contents of my collection letter and Attorney John Watts website came up with all the information I was looking for. I started reading everything he had listed and even did a YouTube search on him and found much more information. After my research, I decided to fill out the Contact Info form on Attorney Watts website. I was contacted by John with 1 hour!!!! Attorney John Watts and I had a phone call that afternoon and discussed my situation and I cannot tell you how relieved I was after our conversation. I felt like a ton of bricks were lifted off my shoulders!! We ended the phone call with a plan and I actually felt positive for the first time in a long time. I’ve never worried about my case, John and his staff always sent me updates to make sure I knew everything that was happening with my case. I’m happy to say it was a positive outcome and I’m very relieved all of this is over! I would recommend John to anyone. He is so willing to help you in any way he can. He treats you like a friend, not like a client.

JP, Thank you for sharing your experience in your review. What you described about the fear and sleepless nights -- that's exactly what these debt buyers want you to experience so that you feel it is all hopeless and you give up. I'm so glad you did not do that but instead investigated your options. We never want someone to take anything on blind faith but instead to discovery your options by investigating and doing your due diligence. We do our best to update our clients frequently and it is nice to know that this was helpful to you. Thank you for your recommendation and your review and most importantly for trusting us to help you in this difficult situation. Thanks again! John Watts

Debt Collectors

I had Mr. Watts represent me in a case back in June of 2014 against Midland Funding LCC. Mr. Watts and his team did such a great job that I am currently seeking their assistance again with another legal matter. It was a relief to have such a dedicated team working on my case while allowing me to focu...s in school and work. Not only did he do the job he went beyond that and educated me explaining every step of the process.

Great People, Great Experience.

From the moment I contacted John Watts, I was confident this was the right person for me to work with. He talked to me and explained the process of dealing with a debt collector with specific details, laid out all of my options and gave me recommendations on what I could do. He was a kind and profess...ional person through and through and didn't try to pressure me in any way. That made me feel confident that he was the right person. He did a great job with my case and it was very fast. John and his staff (Melissia and Carolyn) answered all my questions and followed up with me. I am truly grateful for their assistance in settling my case and taking a huge burden off of my mind. I highly recommend that you give John Watts a call if you are dealing with a debt collector and you need someone to advocate on your behalf.
