Brian David Watts

We hired Brian to help us with a divorce situation. It now has been 7 months and not much has got done. Every time we needed to fix paperwork it would take him about three weeks to a month to even respond back. He never explained anything fully and then would tell us that we had to pay more to spea...k to him again. Finally we got a different attorney and to find out we filled out the wrong paperwork. We threw $500 down the drain. He was worthless and a waste of time.

I had found Brian Watts through Craigslist, as I think most people do. Our first conversations were great and I decided to hire him on. I did not realize upon hiring him that all I was getting, was the paperwork completed. I could have easily completed the same paperwork myself and saved myself 400.0...0. Now, there was a lengthy amount of time between contacts and even after I received my finished paperwork; I had to wait till I could get divorced (financial reasons). Once I was ready, I reached out and never received any kind of response. Honestly, if you want to hire someone JUST to fill out papers for you - you can do them yourself. Ohio is allows pro se representation and you can fill out the divorce papers on your own. Even if you have a strange situation, it's possible to still do it on your own. I wound up having to completely redo my paperwork because so much time passed that address of both parties changed and I wasn't even given all of the papers necessary. Not to mention, I didn't need a divorce - I only needed a dissolution. Just another way to make it even more expensive. He will also tell you that it's more money to go to court with you, more money to file online for you (which by the way, you can file online yourself), and more money for this or that. He might seem affordable to complete the papers but there are lawyers who will do everything for you for double what he charges. Save your money and file once you have all the money or find a lawyer who will take payments if you don't want to file by yourself. Serious waste of 400 dollars

Found him on Craigslist for a divorce , after he got my check for a flat fee, he sent me a questionnaire to fill out and then I waited for a month. Email him twice, no reply. Called him and he called back once with a different attitude than before I wrote the check, also claimed that he didn't get an...y email. Since then, he never called me back nor sent me the forms that he was supposed to prepare for my case. Did I mention that he asked for extra $100 if I wanted my paperwork done within 24hrs, tried to make money out of me

I found this attorney on Craigslist. I am a mother fighting a battle to have my babies back in my home after their father used the system to legally kidnap them. Attorney Watts, called my home and as I began to tell him the story, he kept interrupting me and not listening at all. I found myself repea...ting things over and over again. He told me " The court found you to be unfit". A woman with no arrest record EVER but he has multiple Domestic Violence arrests and I'm unfit?! Please be careful with this attorney...especially if you have children involved!!
