John Watts is unlike any lawyer I have ever met. He is personable, knowledgeable, respectful, and an all around great guy. I met John because I had been sued by someone I didn’t even know, for a debt I didn’t know existed. Panic set in. I was horrified, and had no idea what to do. That is when I called John. He explained things to me in a manner that was easy to understand and quieted my fears. He took… (Read more)

A debt collector was wreaking havoc on my life. First the letters and phone calls, then a judgment and finally they tried garnishment of wages! That’s when I called John.

I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of the settlement. I would recommend John to anyone having trouble with debt… (Read more)

I am one of those that thought I could never stand a chance against the unlawful actions of the biggest violators of law in America. I was just a “consumer” which by corporate definition is a “nobody” that no one cares about. Talk about being wrong!!! John and Randi saved my bacon, and the bacon I needed to provide for my family from a very large and obviously well monied collection agency. I will continue to use him, and consider… (Read more)

It took 3 years (remember we had 6 defendants) from start to finish but they were always on top of things whenever I asked. They gave… (Read more)
