Linda Watson is WHO you want as YOUR lawyer!!!
I am not quite sure where to begin...I had originally hired a previous lawyer to represent me for my divorce (which started in 2019). The previous lawyer did not seem to be doing much work on my case nor did did I feel heard when I explained my case to them. I ended up asking them to withdraw as my l...

Waste of money
Had a child custody case. Seemed like she was too busy to take care of my case because nothing got done unless I was the one asking and reminding her and her paralegal what was going on. I also received extremely important information given to me by her paralegal that was incorrect. They were not on ...
I am sorry you feel that way. My door is always open to all my clients to schedule a meeting with me to review any strategy or information you wish to review with the attorney. Clients are encouraged to do so as often and frequently as they feel they need in their case. In addition, clients have my personal cell phone number to address any emergent concerns they may have at any time. My extremely talented staff are directed by myself personally in all their interactions and work. Naturally an attorney's strategy and opinion may change as the case progresses and detailed facts and evidence is revealed. Watson Law with our fully client integrated digital file systems is the foremost in the area in providing a high level of personal service to each and every one of our clients. It is vital in this open visitation environment to retain an experienced attorney to ensure that your final orders reflect the needs and reality of your family. In addition, an experienced attorney will be able to anticipate and draft orders which will reduce the potential for future conflict between households. Watson Law with 20 years of experience is the best choice for navigating you and your family through these family issues. As always, we wish you and yours health and happiness. Sincerely, Linda Watson

Linda Watson
I am very please with how Linda Watson handled my divorce and I especially appreciate her ability at court appearances. This was a process and she did two really great things along the way.

Needs to go back to school
Linda's billing practices are quite sketchy. Be certain to document times you contacted and spoke to her or staff. She will charge you for anything...and also for nothing! Duplicate charges, no direct answers. Don't bother to attempt resolution, she's always right. Linda is very condescending. Linda ...
I am sorry you feel this way. My door is always open free of charge to anyone with a question regarding our itemized detailed invoices.
