Jennifer Watkins got my FELONY CHARGES DROPPED!

I'll start with the most important parts - What MY result was: I don't know if I can talk about results too specifically, but there were several charges, one of which was a felony which would have put me in prison for quite some time. She got all of them DROPPED, and one final charge she got reduc...ed to something that I could deal with reasonably, and I wouldn't wear a scarlet letter for the rest of my life. No lawyer can guarantee any particular outcome, but nothing I could have imagined was as unbelievable and BRILLIANT as this! When she told me what she had gotten worked out with the DA, I nearly lost my mind with joy! You can imagine how petrified I was facing felony charges. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't think clearly, I just couldn't function. It was awful. I just knew I needed representation, be it the Public Defender, or an Attorney like Jennifer Watkins. For me to go into a case like this without representation would have been foolish. I hit Google hard. And I found Jennifer Watkins Law Firm. I had some expectations of the initial consultation, but nothing would have done the conversation justice. Pun intended. I filled out the online form, and within a few minutes I received a phone call from Jennifer herself. Not her paralegal, not an administrative assistant. Jennifer Watkins, Esq. That was unexpected, but a welcome surprise. She asked me a few questions about the case, and worked in the background looking up specifics. Then she and I talked for quite some time. I never felt like she was trying to rush me off the phone, or that she was too busy to spend more than a few minutes consulting with me. And she is VERY busy, but I always felt like a VIP. And something that she did that I really appreciated: She gave me the facts and an honest appraisal of my situation, BUT SHE DIDN'T pressure me. That was HUGE. It was a huge decision to make, and I made the right one retaining Jennifer Watkins to be my advocate. Probably the best decision I ever made. I expected, at the minimum, jail time. At worst, prison time. Things were not looking good. Jennifer told me that some of these things were possible, but that she was going to work very hard to make sure that I got the best result possible, and working together we'd get this handled. Not in so many words, but essentially that's what we discussed. She asked and directed me to do some things, and I worked on those things immediately. They helped my case, took some burden off of her, and perhaps most importantly, helped me to see where I needed to change and improve. Communication throughout this process has been WONDERFUL! I always know where I stand. We talk on the phone, or via email, and I never feel like she's trying to rush me off the phone. And even though Jennifer Watkins works SO INCREDIBLY HARD, I've never felt like I was anything less than a VIP client. She never was anything but patient with me. She was understanding of my situation and health issues, and she did her best to make sure that court dates and any necessary appearances could accommodate me. These things were important to me. Somehow, she just knew it, and was great about them. Heaven forbid you ever find yourself in a position like this, but if you do, my hope is that you will make the same decision I did, and retain Jennifer Watkins, Esquire to represent you in your case. I can promise you this, you will not regret it. Thank you so much Jennifer Watkins, Esq!!!
