I am so grateful for this attorney and his staff. He was professional, kind, and understanding with my case. I would recommend him to anyone that needs help like I did with disability not to mention, he did all the paperwork and my part was a phone call. I will cherish this lawyer forever.

Sean Hightower was very professional and helpful. And, as this was a free consultation, he was not rushed and was generous with his time. He even took my calls for several follow-up questions in the same unrushed, professional manner. I recommend him highly.

I found Dean to be very knowledgable and professional. My daughter was in jail and he went out of his way to get the best deal for her and kept us in the loop. He was very responsive to any questions and return phone calls. My husband is an attorney and for him to say he was very impressed is more than a 5 star review!

Dean Watts is such an amazing lawyer . He will always make you feel heard and treat you like a person not a criminal. He will give you 100% in every case no matter how big or little. Dean will ALWAYS represent me if I have any criminal cases. He knows the law and knows how to get positive results. Caring about his clients comes easy to him because he loves his job. If you are looking for a lawyer that will treat you right and fight for you, Dean Watts is your lawyer. You won’t be disappointed I promise

My DWI (3rd or more Felony 3) case included some peculiar circumstances, however, Dean Watts made great efforts to resolve my case in my favor. He reduced my initially 3rd degree felony DWI down to a Class B misdemeanor DWI that included a much favorable punishment by comparison to my first offers. I believe that I could not have received better representation than Dean Watts. He is very easy to communicate with and takes all perspectives into consideration. His tireless work ethic speaks for itself when I say my case went from a detrimental conviction to a less impactful misdemeanor. 10/10 I would recommend Dean Watts again and again.

I hired Sean at Tim James Office to represent me on a felony case. He was able to get the case dismissed, and have everything expunged from my record. He gave my wife and I his home number and we were always able to talk to him at the office or at his home number. He was patient with us and explained everything to us in a way we could understand. I highly recommend Sean!

I did feel a little lost when I called I was transferred a few times and then the man I started talking with helped educated me on filing law suits. I don’t like Confusion nobody introduced themselves until I said I was talking to someone and I was placed on hold. I said this is my first time I don’t know what’s going on expect I am trying to gaining clarity on if I have a case to pursuit. In the future it would be nice to feel valued as a consumer

After speaking with several people in the community on the best lawyer in town to handle my mistake (We all make them), I met with John and have learned why he is the one that everyone I spoke with recommended him. He was very easy to talk to about what I had gotten myself into, he understood that it was more than just a charge- it was something that could affect my career possibilities after graduation. He was honest and up front with how things needed to be handled. Since that consultation, John has used his knowledge and negotiation skills to help my case in ways I did not even know could happen. John and his assistant (Amanda) have treated me more than just a client. I truly feel that he has invested time and effort into my case and the positive results from that show. He has been with me at every meeting i have had that has pertained to my case and that goes to show his dedication. Him and his assistant have helped turn a really negative situation into a "its going to be just fine" situation. Thankfully, my mistake will not follow me through my future and I give that credit to John and his staff 100%. Choosing an attorney was very hard, as I have never had to do this before and i know who you hire as your attorney is crucial- it can either make your case or break it! . I am extremely happy with my choice and would highly recommend John. His office has made this bad experience not so bad. I cannot thank them enough for their hard work.

Paul Anderson and his partner Dr. Tillman are little more than con artists. Paul is a profound liar and Tillman is an elusive figure who listens into private conversations via an echo dot. They also have a racket running with Houston journalist, Wayne Dolcifino. Paul will insist you use Dolcifino, claiming it will help your case, and suddenly you will find you owe Paul and Dolcifino far more than you initially agreed to. Paul spent a whole year arguing with another attorney at my expense while my case sat neglected. DO NOT HIRE PAUL ANDERSON. Check his record and talk to his former clients.

During the 9 months preceeding my request for termination of his services Mr Cooper repeatedly choose not to use the voluminous information provide on his request and instead used generic information and erroneous references in the preparation of every document.
