True Advocate through difficult time

As a foreigner, I was lost in my understanding of the legal system here in Colorado. When I called Jennifer I was terrified of what lay ahead. Jennifer was empathetic and able to talk me through all perspectives in a calm reassuring tone. Her fuss-free ethic kept me stable while she worked hard at my... case while maintaining a deep understanding of my stress. I absolutely recommend Jennifer Watkins Esq.

Experienced lawyer, Wonderful human!

I hope you are reading this review out of curiosity, however, my prayers and hopes go for you if you are in a legal trouble. In the latter case, the reasons you HAVE to work with Mrs. Watkins are the followings: 1) she is exceptionally experienced on the criminal DUI process, 2) she is decently famil...iar-with and respected-by the judiciary system, 3) she is realistic and reasonable, and 4) she is great human being. Without any doubts, I nominate Mrs. Watkins as the best criminal defense lawyer in the Boulder county. If you are interested in my story, here it goes…..I’m a 30yrs old working professional with doctorate-level education. I moved to Colorado last year and didn’t know about the DWAI laws and ended up being arrested for DUI+Reckless driving…God I was scared, horrified and was feeling helpless at the time. The whole world was spinning in my head. Alot of questions...ruminations...anxiety. I remembered that I sent emails to 4 different lawyers the next day (it was a Saturday)…Jennifer was the first one who called me less than 1hr afterwards. I talked to her and based on her questions immediately felt like “she knows this process very well!”. The impression that I never received from other lawyers that I talked to and/or met with. Fast forward, I met with her and shared my concerns regarding career, immigration, potential jail sentencing and etc. She was calm, respectful, nonjudgmental and empathic in regards. Based on her advise, I started Level II alcohol education class immediately and signed up for some volunteer works and MADD panel. It took 8weeks to appear before the judge with BAC of 0.07, however, we gathered and presented the documents regarding my attendances and my career. We plead quality on DWAI and reckless driving was dismissed. Unbelievably, my sentencing was lower that any minimums! No jail, no probation, no work release, no house arrest or etc. Just minimum fines and the finishing the level II classes with 24hr community service which already got credited from my volunteering. Takehome: There is a lot you can do before appearing in the court and Please do so! You wont’ believe how impactful those can be. It starts by calling Jennifer!

Simply Amazing

I was arrested for a DUI one day before receiving a student visa that was supposed to allow me to move to Ireland for a year. Using that visa Jennifer Watkins advised me to finish the MADD panel, all 12 education classes, 48 hours of volunteer work (since it's not community service without being ass...igned by the court) and as many therapy sessions as possible before my court date. Once the court date finally arrived the judge said that what I had accomplished was "extraordinary" and approved the deal that Ms. Watkins worked out with the DA. I was given 20 days of house arrest, no therapy track, and no probation, allowing me to continue with my plans to move to Ireland for school. My DUI was brought down to a DWAI and I was given the minimum amount of every fine. Some people told me that hiring a lawyer for this process was a waste of money. I can honestly say that was not the case. Hiring Ms. Watkins saved me thousands of dollars and allowed me to continue on with my life much sooner than I ever imagined. Considering my particular case this outcome was a dream. I can't even say this was the best case scenario because this was better than I could've imagined. Furthermore, Ms. Watkins was always quick to respond to any questions I had via email and was great at keeping me up to date on everything going on with my case in the three and a half months between my arrest and court date. Hiring Jennifer Watkins was the best decision I made.

Like a caring Best Friend

I am a computer programmer from India.Recently I had a DUI charge against me with higher points as I did not have much awareness of US rules. I did little research on local lawyers to help me and finalized Jennifer.This is the first time I was in need to continuously deal with a person profe...ssionally to help with my need in my 6 years of US stay. So I initially had a hesitation and doubt how it is going to work out considering cultural difference and my personal frequencies. But Unbelievable. She showed lot of patience to listen and cleared all of my questions and as well as my silly questions.My initial discussions with her started giving me strong belief and relief that I will be saved. She looked at my case from all angles i.e I am being a non-immigrant she was quickly able to suggest me to consult immigration attorney which I did not aware initially. Based on her guidance, I was able to collect inputs regarding my immigration and discussed with her. Effective email/phone communication -- This is more important for me to feel everything is going in right direction with my case. I never felt that I had even a small gap in that aspect. Jail term for DUI-- Even if it is for single day it would have shaked my family. But in our first meeting itself she confirmed that I am not going to jail. DMV hearing -- Helped me with the DMV hearing. She exactly knew what need to talked now to get the favorable outcome with final court hearing. Court hearing -- When I stood with her in front of judge, I was able to feel that a good person standing next to me for support. Her representation was awesome. My DUI got reduced to DWAI. After judgement, When I felt that I am saved, I could not able to express my happiness even in front of her.I lost my words. I am a kind of person who should not have a single trouble to concentrate better in my work as I love my work so much. My first meeting with Jennifer & further communications with her gave me lot of relief to concentrate. She listened to me,cared for me. Her actions in the foreground and Background very much satisfied me and helped me ultimately. Good human gets good amount of support every where to perform their duties in a kind and best manner. That is Jennifer.
