Contact Phil if you need to file a grievance against the state of California.

Our property was involved in a car accident caused by an employee of CalTrans. The insurance adjuster with CalTrans was a complete lunatic. It took 3 years (!) for the issue to get resolved, and that was with Phil trying his damnedest to get it done. I can't recommend Phil highly enough.

Excellent Experience

I was referred to Philip Watson by an attorney, and now I can also recommend him without any reservation. Mr. Watson successfully settled a personal injury claim for me this year. His professional experience and knowledge were integral to a positive outcome. Further, his balanced demeanor offset the ...emotional experience I faced. I also appreciated that he communicated the exact action taken, and his office staff was efficient. I will definitely be seeking Philip Watson's counsel as needed in the future.

Very Knowledgeable and Thorough

Phil and his brother Steve have been our attorneys for 27 years. Phil has been instrumental in writing and reviewing contracts for our various family businesses.....always with an eye for detail yet keeping things as simple as possible. He and his brother have helped us through our own estate pla...nning process. When my father-in-law died, they guided us through the administration and final distribution of his rather complicated estate. They are very knowledgeable attorneys who are detailed orientated, always there to answer questions and their fees are more reasonable than most. Would highly recommend both Phil and Steve.

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.

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.
