I came across Watts & Herring, LLC when I was looking for an attorney after being contacted about an old debt. I wasn't being sued, but I did want to get an expert on my side so I could take care of it and move on with my life! John Watts contacted me quickly and was able to answer all my questions and recommend a solution. He negotiated with the collector and took care of the issue completely. John and his office staff were friendly and extremely responsive. John answered all my questions and gave me peace of mind that my issue was being handled by someone that was confident and knowledgeable. That's definitely the kind of person you want negotiating on your side!

John and his staff are amazing. A debt company sued me i contacted john and within 2 weeks they had resolved everything . If you are being sued contact john before you do anything, John and his team will walk you through everything and put your mind at ease. Thanks john

John Watts is the best. I was facing a lawsuit that was headed to circuit court that I didn't know how to defend on my own. After consulting with John Watts and his law firm, he was able to get the case with my lawsuit settled and dismissed. He gave me all of my options and after only two months, everything has been resolved. He comes highly recommended.

As for how I felt when I was sued, It was very unsettling for both myself and my Husband. I have to admitt that I immediately went into a panicked. Although it was after 6 pm on a Friday evening, I grabbed the telephone and began to call the list of Attorney's I had Googled. My stress level shot up and I thought about taking the pills that my Doctor recomended to calm my nerves a few weeks ago, but I discovered that I had ran out.  What I did do, was make sure that I had taken my blood pressure meds. for that day. Thereafter, the entire weekend was a blur.  I could not get my mind from focusing on being sued. Monday morning rolled around and we figured that perhaps we can try to work this out without legal counsel. I then called the number on the paperwork. The person on the other end (whom I thought represented the TJMAXX Co.)convinced me that I would be out of this mess if I paid them a lump sum or payed a sum monthly for 2 years, and signed a Concent Judgement Form. That was a chance I welcomed if it meant that we would be out from under this pressure. We considered selling my Husband's vehicle to do the settlement but decided against it( his car isn't worth much anyway). Instead, I made the first monthly payment which was money set aside for my 14 year old daughter's Curriculumn for that year. We felt uneasy about the Consent Judgement Form after we did some research on it. My Husband and I placed a stop on the check , but the bank said it had already been processed. We then decided that we will seek legal counsel because clearly, we needed it! Tuesday morning I got a call from Mr. Watts's Secretary, Carolyn. Just speaking with her,  made me feel less anxious, but I was still not completely settled. The following day My Husband and I spoke with Mr. Watts. He took his time and explained the situation and our options. All of our questions were answered and we ended the call with the feeling of having had a black cloud literally lifted from over our heads! Although we are aware that the process is in its infancy, our anxiety level has greatly diminished! Fast Foward to October 8, 2016: Around 8:45 that morning we got an email from Mr. Watts stating that we won our case! We were so grateful to God and Mr.Watts and his Staff! One other thing...during the time we were waiting for the case to settle we did not receive anymore threatening comunication from the Company that we were being sued by. This made waiting for our Victory a great deal easier! We recomend Watts & Herring, LLC to all anyone who ever find themselves in such a terrible place as we did. Sincerly, Mr. and Mrs. Prewitt

John was a tremendous help and went above and beyond. Over the course of 2.5 years, John guided me through a very difficult situation and helped find a resolution. Thanks for all you do.

My family has been going through a stressful time moving my grandmother to a nursing home. We were not getting any help from the faculty she was in. The facility was trying to coerce us to hire a specific attorney. We did not think we needed an sttorney. I contacted this firm and John Watts gave us direction during a consultation. He did not believed we needed an attorney either. He answered all of our questions and advised us. It has been a trying and confusing time and we are so grateful to Mr. Watts for his help!!

I'd like to thank John Watts and his team. He and his staff were very knowledgable and got my case settled quickly. I would definitely recommend them.

We came upon an unexpected legal matter just as we were preparing to close on a home via a corporate relocation plan. We were in a really tough bind and the financial ramifications could have been severe. Moreover, we had a very small window of opportunity to resolve this matter in time to close on the home we were building. To complicate matters, we had to handle this situation from out of state. We sought specialized legal counsel and found John via a Google search. The videos that John posts on his website, intrigued us enough to give him a call to discuss our situation. This turned out to be a great decision! From the first call, John and his staff provided understanding and formulated clear options for a successful resolution. John took personal ownership of the case after the initial call. From that point, there was constant and open communication by phone, text and email. Honestly, John was ALWAYS available to discuss our case. We followed John's advice and the case unfolded just as he said it would. This experience exceeded all of our expectations and turned a bleak situation into a resounding success. We truly believe John was the reason for this outcome. We can't thank John and his staff enough for helping us when we needed it most. We HIGHLY recommend John's team for anyone who needs similar legal help.

I was being sued by a collection agency for a large sum of money and when I tried to negotiate they offered to reduce the amount to 90% of the original amount. Unhappy with the attitude of the collection agency, I searched the internet and found John Watts. I was a little skeptical but I am so happy I went with John. My case from beginning till end took 2 months but he did exactly what he said he would do. I paid 0 dollars to the collection agency and they had to clear up on my credit reports. John is truly helping people and I hope to find more people to send his way. I want to thank John and his staff for their help. You have helped me and my family so much!

When I was first served a summons and learned that I was being sued for an old debt, I was terrified. I am a young mom and have a lot on my plate, not to mention- I have never been in any "legal" trouble before. The debt was far more than I could afford. At first, I did very little research. I tried reaching out to the debt collector directly to try and settle this. When that did not go anywhere (and it typically doesn't, they would rather not settle directly. They can get more by taking you to court.) I reached out to Ferry & Nichols. Ferry & Nichols send out the same letter to everyone in the state of Alabama that has an open case against them. They state they are a mediator and will "assist" you in "settling your debt at a much lower price". For me, it was $300 lower than the alleged debt..but with their fees I would be paying only $50 less than what I was being sued for. After a few calls to them, something was fishy. They never answered any of my questions and I spoke to multiple different people who kept telling me different things. I was not confident with hiring them. At this point I had only a few more days to respond to my summons before a default judgement was placed against me. My anxiety was through the roof. I did more extensive research and came across Watts & Herring. The videos on his website were so helpful, I called immediately. Caroline answered my call and she was so comforting..I laid it all out on the table; my problem and how fearful I was. She reassured me that Mr.John Watts could help. And he did! Not only did he give me the best possible choice, he taught me a lot! He was always a text, call, or email away. He solved my debt with this nasty debt collector better than I even expected! My total cost spent was far less than I would have guessed when I first started this process. My only regret is that I let myself worry and stress too long...I should have called the minute I found out. John is a life saver and made what could have been a very bad experience into a great one! My advise- do not make any decisions into solving your debt until you speak to John. He is an amazing and genuine person. Highly recommend this wonderful man and his office!

On March 23, 2016, I received a writ of garnishment notification from the county clerk office in the county where I reside. I was baffled and upset. I had no idea that a default judgment had been entered against me. I never had any legal issues before and I felt helpless. However, I did feel like I had some kind of legal rights and taking no action at all was not an option for me. I felt like I had to fight back in some type of way and not let these people (the plaintiff) unjustly take my hard earned money. Therefore, I began to do some online research to find out how I could combat this legally. I came across the Watts & Herring, LLC Law Firm. I liked the information that they displayed on their website and they seemed very experienced and knowledgeable of consumer rights. I decided to give them a call and I initially spoke with Ms. Carolyn Allcorn and she was very courteous and understanding of my situation. She got me in touch with one of the attorneys, Mr. John Watts, who has been nothing short of helpful, knowledgeable, experienced and he keeps me up to date on things every step of the way. Needless to say, I have no regrets of choosing Watts & Herring, LLC as my attorney. I am grateful to have found them and my journey with them has been very satisfactory and pleasant. I highly recommend this law firm to anyone and you will not be disappointed with the results as I have not been disappointed! Thanks again Watts & Herring for all you have done!!!

This experience for me has been interesting. When I first received those papers of being sued and possibly having my wages garnished I felt helpless. That made me depressed and hopeless I wasn't able to sleep or eat for a couple of days. It seemed unfair that my credit and my income were constantly taking hits and there wasn't any room to breathe or get ahead. Then I started to look for help and come to find that there aren't many lawyers that are willing to help and support you during those times. Fortunately in one of the oddest places I found a person who would teach me a lot that was Google and YouTube. First I was able to find Randi on Google and she enlightened me on many aspects of how these things go then she sent me links to helpful information that led me to John and YouTube. The videos were a breath of fresh air! Finally someone who is interested in educating others as well as putting actions with it. Randi connected us and there wasn't any delay in him reaching out to me and putting the situation in terms that I could understand and making me sure that there are options. Many people don't get the chance to have options when dealing with legal issues and I am glad that there are lawyers out there that will inform as well as help you to stand up to poor collection practices and tactics. I wish that they had a larger platform to reach many others like myself whom otherwise would have to take being mistreated by the collections system. I feel if all lawyers could be like this then people would have less disappointment with the legal system, from start to finish his whole team treated me like a person and kept me informed as to what was going on with my case and made me a part of what was going on. One of the most satisfying things about this whole process was to deal with someone who when they said something they meant and did it. I have learned a lot during this experience and I can't thank you enough for your help. Sincerely Yours Terry Bain
