In trouble with the Law? You NEED Jennifer Watkins representing you...

I was facing some pretty ugly charges, one was a felony. I totaled my car, broke my back, and now I had to deal with all this stuff. I had to get a lawyer. The best reviewed one I could find was Jennifer Watkins. I filled out the online paperwork and scheduled a consultation. I never thought I would ...have to deal with this kind of thing. Jennifer called me and I knew right away she was the person I wanted representing me. She talked candidly about what was going to happen, what I needed to do, and what WE could expect. I say "we" because I really felt like a team member with her as my counsel. She had a way of being very personable and approachable while at the same time being very professional. It's hard to describe, but I never felt like she was judging me or looked down on me. Ultimately I got a result that was better than my wildest dreams! And it's all thanks to the representation of Jennifer Watkins, Esq. If you've gotten in trouble with the Law, you need to get a good Attorney to represent you. Jennifer Watkins is the best of the best, she'll work hard to get you the best result you can get.

Though and kind

Jennifer was always considerate and kind, asking how I was feeling after my car accident and during the court procedures. She held her position with the DA and did not let him bully her into a plea that we were not comfortable with. Jennifer responded quickly to my emails, texts, or phone calls..., even after hours. I would highly recommend Jennifer to my friends, as she did a great job and is very knowledgeable of the various laws and procedures.

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.
