Jessica Watson, An Excellent Lawyer

Jessica Watson is my lawyer for 1 1/2 year. She is handling my dissolution case from Nov. 2009 until the present time. I like her, she is an excellent lawyer, very professional, courteous, delicated, trustworthy, supportive, knowledgeables, thoughtfulness, and cares about her client. I definitel...y recommend her to anyone who has a dissolution or family law case.

Law Office of Jessica Watson

Jessica is an amazing attorney and is great at what she does. She is professional, dedicated, supportive, and able to give her clients superior counsel. I interacted with her on a custody case involving my nephew. The situation at hand was painful for my family and she not only advocated for our p...osition in court, but the empathy and care that she gave went above and beyond her call of duty. She is a compassionate individual that uses her intelligence and legal expertise to win! I worked with her on another family law dispute that appeared to be an open and close case, but turned out to be a little more tricky. She was well equipped to handle all of the challenges that arose. It was a great day when the judge ruled in my favor. Thank you Jessica!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. She is easy to work with and, at the same time, is a strong advocate for her clients. By being easy to work with, this keeps down the tension in Family Cases and allows the parties and/or their attorneys to focus on issues, rather than drama."

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.
