Hired Attorney Nathan Low

I contacted Attorney Low to discuss an issue I was having with my solar installer and home builder. He gave me a few options to think about and was very up front about the situation. I appreciate the quick response as well.

Very responsive. I hired the Watkins Firm to form my medical practice and I'm really happy with that decision. I had plenty of questions for Mr. Watkins and his knowledge, professionalism, and quick responses have proved invaluable to me. I fully recommend his law firm.

Hired Attorney Daniel W. Watkins

Danny Watkins has been our attorney since 1990. We are waterproofing contractors and from time to time we have been dragged into litigation. Although I generally hate lawyers, the attorneys at the Watkins Firm are different. Danny Watkins and the Watkins Firm have always come through for us. I could not imagine a better lawyer or law firm to work with.

I have known Dan Watkins for several years. Dan has always handled my affairs in a competent manner. He listens and then gives a game plan. If he does not know the answer, he is honest and tells me that he will consult with a colleague.

Mr. Popov provided me with not only excellent service but also with a passion for my case. This was an unexpected, but meaningful, experience for me. I recommend his services for anyone who is looking for a high degree of intelligence, professionalism, and integrity.

Dan Watkins is a born litigator and the best attorney I have worked with in over 20 years. Dan is persistent, creative, and his knowledge of the law helped me recover losses from a controversial business investment. His staff is also very friendly and experienced in all areas of the law. When you hire the Watkins Firm, you are in good hands.

Aggressive lawyers who don't charge an arm and a leg! Caring people who put the clients needs first. Dan was willing to work around my schedule and is a good listener and very knowledgeable about real-estate and business related issues. I felt in good hands at all times.

Hired Attorney Nathan Low

Mr Low took on a case he had no expertise on. Very unprofessional in handling client's case, lacked knowledge and file a case in the wrong court, and dropped the case when he found himself stuck and referred case to another firm, causing double charges to client. He will create opportunities to take your money and lied about charges. Very dishonest and operated in conflict of interest, associating with opposing counsel against his client and use psychological oppression to violate your rights.
