Excellent attorney

Jennifer did a great job of helping us navigate through a difficult case. She was professional, experienced and able to steer us through. What results in her leaping above other lawyers were her compassion, thoughtfulness, additional suggestions and willingness to spend extra time whenever needed. ... Highly recommended.

Watkins Law

I highly recommend Jennifer Watkins to anyone in the Boulder area. From start to finish Jennifer was compassionate and understanding of the underlying issues concerning my case. Through the whole legal process she kept me calm and informed of what was going to happen. Jennifer Watkins is the be...st and the most HONEST attorney I have had in a long time in the Boulder area.

Amazing experience and outcome for a stressful situation

I contacted Jennifer Watkins while interviewing attorneys to represent me for a first time DUI case. Out of 6 inquiries Ms Watkins was the first to respond and took the time to explain the process and outcome scenarios.After interviewing other attorneys it was clear that Ms Watkins was by far the bes...t choice. The outcome of my case was better than expected and Ms Watkins took additional time to walk me through the program processes that have to be completed. Highly Recommend.

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.
