Michael is a family advocate

Michael Watters and his team are highly skilled and experienced in navigating the complexities of divorce. Not only did he skillfully navigate the legal system and advocate for my financial needs, he understood the importance of equalizing finances between households so that I can really show up for ...my children. He clearly has seen it all before, understands dysfunctional family dynamics and anticipated what my family needed when I was not able to advocate for myself. Michael got a court order to begin paying child support and alimony when my ex had stopped; he called for a financial deposition to reveal the money that my ex had been trying to hide and could not be revealed in a simple tax return, he got my ex to pay money to me for the house that we had acquired while we were married and then had pressurized me into getting my name off of the title as I was leaving the house before we were legally separated, and he was able to get most all of my legal fees to be paid by my ex as he had the ability to do so. I am so grateful for Michael and his team's work on my behalf. Without Michael's help I still would have been an unsupported single mom stressed and not being able to fully show up for my kids who are really the ones who suffer most in these dynamics.

A Fantastic Attorney

I hired Mr. Watters to help me navigate through a sticky, contentious divorce. He was able to research many "grey area" topics and provide solid legal assistance in multiple court appearances. He has a vast knowledge and high degree of competence, thanks to his many years of high-level litigation. ... His support staff are all very sharp and respectful of the client. They work hard and have a well-earned top-tier reputation in the North Bay Area.

Complex child custody case

We hired Mr. Watters to help with an extremely complex child custody case. Mr. Watters helped us succeed in what was characterized as a virtually impossible case to win in the family courts. After that was completed, he went to great lengths to help us settle a secondary part of our situation out of ...court. Mr. Watters is the ultimate professional. Words cannot describe the level of respect and trust he earned from our family throughout our legal situation. Others have mentioned his wisdom in reviews and to be very blunt, it is spot on. Decades of experience, an abundance of resources, and a hard-working and dedicated group of professionals that support Mr. Watters were the ingredients for a successful outcome. When it comes to family law, whether in a trial setting, mediation, or communication with another party, Mr. Watters was quite frankly the best any potential client of his could ask for. And at the end of the day, Mr. Watters is a genuinely nice person outside of the field of law. Would highly recommend the services of Mr. Watters’ and his team.
