Great Experience!

I had a great experience with Jennifer. She was very comforting and always so helpful. I would recommend her to anyone!

DUI and DMV

Who should I go with? If the case is not stressful enough, I find myself debating for the right lawyer. I spoke with several lawyers and most seemed reasonable, but Jennifer was the only one who was truly straightforward about the reality of my situation. From the first conversation, she didn’t sugar...coat anything but was honest, compassionate, and focused on on helping me understand my options and next steps. The best of all, she was knowledgeable, professional and incredibly responsive throughout the case. Because of Jennifer’s work, all of my charges were dismissed and sealed - an outcome that felt out of reach at one point. She went above and beyond and I’m sincerely grateful for everything she did. To those who are reading this review, if you’re looking for someone you can trust, someone who will be direct, supportive, and fully invested, I strongly recommend Jennifer. Call her and talk through your situation; you’ll quickly see the difference.

Great lawyer

In a very uncomfortable situation was always available and super helpful. Got me prepared for everything that would happen in court and was extremely proactive. Replied to any questions I had immediately and made a horrible experience bearable

Watkins Law Firm LLC ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Jennifer Watkins was a lifesaver for me. She was such a pleasure to work with. She gave me excellent professional advice that made all the difference. I received the best possible outcome given the circumstances. We got the lowest plea, and the lowest minimum mandatory statutory requirements on ...that plea. I truly can not say enough good things about my experience using Ms. Watkins. I would highly recommend her.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
