This guy is top notch!

I just needed a dissolution as my husband and I agreed on everything and got along well enough. I contacted a few attorneys including Mr. Watts and I decided to hire Mr. Watts to be my attorney because of the way he spoke, how detailed he was and how genuine he sounded. His flat fee was reasonably pr...iced too. Mr. Watts had my dissolution paperwork done within days after I gave him all of my information and then I was divorced a little over one month after he filed the case. I was amazed at how quick the entire process was. I also appreciated how quickly Mr. Watts responded back to my text messages and phone calls. If you’re looking to hire a divorce attorney then I’d recommend you call Mr. Watts.

100% call Mr. Watts if you need a divorce attorney!

Mr. Watts got me everything I wanted in my divorce case. I spoke with other attorneys before I contacted Mr. Watts and most of them didn’t seem to care about me or my case and they all wanted more money than Mr. Watts. He was personable and honest and told me how things would likely play out. I have ...already recommended Mr. Watts to two friends of mine who are about to go through a divorce.

Thank you Brian

So glad I decided to hire Brian for my divorce. He was easy to deal with and more affordable than the other lawyers I contacted. Thank you Brian for all your help!

Easy to work with. Recommended!

I had a great experience working with Brian on my recent divorce. After a detailed consultation he had me fill out some paperwork. He told me exactly what to fix after he reviewed it. He then did all the filing for me and all I had to do was show up! His fees were transparent and he was very clear ab...out what to expect at the courthouse. On the actual day I knew where to go and exactly what to do. It was such a relief to know everything was done correctly and legally, and that my rights and obligations were all accounted for. I saw another reviewer complaining that they had to gather their own financial info and get the paperwork notarized themselves. A divorce attorney is not a psychic magician--he doesn't know your financials and he can't pretend to be you at a notary, so yes, there is some work for you to do. Overall he was helpful and very responsive.

Buyer Beware

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
