Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.“William A. Watkins, Esq. and his firm were trustworthy, reliable, and highly professional throughout the entire process. They kept me informed, handled my case with confidence and care, and always made me feel like I was in good hands. The best part is—they won the case! I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for strong legal representation.”
I hired Attorney Watkins for a simple matter; someone wasn't truthful to a police officer and I was surprised when I discovered I was being charged at the magistrate office. I had a free consultation; he was thorough, attentive and very organized. I hired Attorney Watkins to represent me at my hearing; but my hearing was rescheduled for months later. Not only did he remember my case; he was prepared, he spoke on my behalf and all charges were withdrawn. Attorney Watkins also dispelled false information; I was being accredited with another woman's criminal record because she had a similar name! I would hire his office if I am in need of another attorney and highly recommend him.
I have known bill ,and he has been my Attorney for over 25 years . Bill is exceptional and very smart Marcel laVigne .
Attny Watkins presented a strong defense on our behalf, his presentation was clear concise and delivered the points needed to make our case. As a result the judge ruled in our favor. Bill informed us of the decision almost as soon as it was handed down. He took the time to explain our next steps and remained with us through fruition. If you want an attorney with a no nonsense approach who is straight forward and addresses your concerns then I would highly recommend Attny Watkins
