Mr. Watson was a very easy to work with on our child support case. We were out of state and needed somebody to represent us in court. Mr. Watson was superb at communicating to us what was happening in the case against DHR. He notified us with plenty of time to square away travel plans if we needed to be present in court on a specific date. He was very knowledgeable about the law and was always on top of our case. He made everything understandable to us that are not familiar with all of the legal jargon. I would positively recommend him to future clients and I would personally use him again if I ever need another lawyer (which I hope we do not).

Jonathan Watson is one of the best attorneys I have had to represent me. His attention to detail, tenacity in determining the facts, and dedication is unmatched. He represented me in seeking custody for my young granddaughter after my daughter’s death. A challenge was made by the absent father and the ramifications of an unhealthy situation for my granddaughter should he have won was very trying for me emotionally. Mr. Watson skillfully and compassionately managed my emotional tangents and, in court, demonstrated a masterful presentation of the facts and exposed the true motives of the father. The outcome was I received full custody and shall be forever grateful for his representation. I highly recommend Mr. Watson and believe his approach to the attorney/client relationship is unmatched. - V.P., 2017
