Just a question

I called reguarding a garnishment that I have that has been going on for a while. I was immediately put a the phone with aomeone who looked into my case and went over my options. She tried her hardest and found a possible solution for me even though she didnt have to. I wish I would have found them ...sooner!

Garnishments are very scary -- glad we could give you some thoughts and suggestions for how to handle the situation. About finding us sooner -- lots of things I wish I had figured out earlier. :) What's the old saying, "The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is today." True! Important thing is we take action now which is exactly what you did. Thanks for contacting us and thank you for proving us feedback -- we appreciate it! John Watts

Amazing! He is the best

When my fiance and I were hit with a lawsuit by a debt collector we were so upset and really had no idea where to turn. We found John Watts with a google search and ended up hiring him. From the very first phone call, everyone at the firm has been so friendly and all around wonderful. Mr. Watts resol...ved our issue recently and we are so glad we had him on our side! The peace of mind he has provided us is priceless. If you are in need of assistance, look no further. He is truly the best man for the job and we would recommend him to anyone. Thank you so much Mr. Watts to you and your team, we are so thankful to have found you!

Knowledge, Professionalism, Respect

John was calm, respectful, knowledgeable and a good teacher of the law. After having met with him I, too, left with a feeling of calmness and trust that I had the most appropriate and professional attorney. The debt collector called me names and lectured me about being a good mother, called... my home incessantly, threatened court action for a debt that was not my debt. When John took action against the agency the harrassment/bullying stopped. Plus the settlement was more than satisfactory! I believe he is making a difference for good people who are powerless to defend themselves.

Mary, You were the one who was willing to step up and take action -- thanks for letting us help you! It is amazing when you stand up to a bully -- they tend to crumble. :) Glad these guys left you alone and compensated you for their bad conduct. Thanks for leaving us such a nice review and for letting us represent such a good person! John Watts

Class "A" Experience

I'm a single mom of two boys and having just gone through a horrible divorce started receiving letters and phone calls from a company I have never heard of. I had no idea who this was or that I owed them money. I explained my situation to them and that the particular amount they said I owed had bee...n payed off in 2005. This was not even the credit company that the money was borrowed from in the beginning. I knew I owed them nothing. Still the letters and phone calls kept coming. I received a letter in the mail from Watts &Herring stating that they could help me with this problem and I am so glad I called them. They won this case for me and for once in a very long time I feel more relaxed and able to sleep at night knowing those people won't be bothering me anymore. I highly recommend this lawyer for any case you may have if strong and positive results are what you're looking for.

RB, Thank you for taking the time to give us this feedback and review. A lot of our clients who are dealing with abusive debt collectors are coming out of a divorce. A bad divorce (almost any divorce really) is so damaging to our finances. And collectors are eager to try to take advantage of a bad situation when we are vulnerable. We appreciate you having the confidence in us to let us represent you -- you made the tough decision to fight this and we could not have done our job without you being strong. Its great to know this helped you to sleep better and be more relaxed. Thanks for sharing this and for taking the time to review us. Appreciate you letting us represent you my friend.... 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
