Client Comments

All client comments represent the opinions of the people who provided them. All potential clients are urged to remember that no two cases are ever completely alike and that the result in one case does not guarantee a similar result in another case.

Stan Purvis Buckingham Group

Health Care Law

Watkins & Eager is professional, flexible and battle-tested. I am confident in their work and can recommend Watkins & Eager without reservation.

Family Law

What separates Watkins & Eager from the smaller, limited practice firms is their ability to cover all areas of expertise that the matter requires. For example, in a high-net-worth divorce, the ownership and transferability of closely held stock might be questioned. Watkins & Eager has the personnel to resolve any question regarding tax or potential restrictions regarding the stock transfer. This makes Watkins & Eager a leader in the field of family law. The smaller firms that only handle family law have to send the client elsewhere, and representation becomes piecemeal. Integrating the representation is far more valuable. Perhaps this is the reason Watkins & Eager is recommended so often in family law matters.
