I was in a really tough place after finding out that I was in some unexpected legal trouble. Seeking legal help I ran across Jennifer Watkins ' business page and began to read the many great reviews she has and knew I needed to give her an explanation of my situation. She is as genuine and helpful as it gets, and I guarantee you won't find another lawyer who is as concerned or caring for the situation you're in - big or small. She was super helpful through the whole process, and when I say WHOLE PROCESS I mean it! Due to COVID there was an extensive delay in getting anything done so she stuck it out with me for a year! She made every step as painless as possible and helped keep me positive when I wasn't feeling very optimistic. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better outcome for my case, and the only person I'd give credit to for that is Jennifer Watkins. If you don't hire her, you're truly overlooking a wonderful, talented, and caring lawyer.

Jennifer got my whole case dismissed and all related records sealed! From start to end, she was always available and made me feel supported by someone I could count on. Jennifer is a seasoned professional and has strong relationships with the District Attorneys and Judges in Boulder. On the practical side, Jennifer offers a very reasonable fee structure that ensures there is no chance of cost overruns or surprise expenses. Once you have retained her services, you can rest assured Jennifer won’t stop until she has gotten you the best possible outcome!

Jennifer was awesome to work with in a truly terrifying time for me. She kept me informed and told me the truth even when it was not good, was compassionate from the start and believed in me when no one else did. She shined through to the end and I got what I think was a great outcome. I only have good things to say about her as an attorney and as a person and highly recommend calling her if you are in a bad spot with the law.

I will admit, I was the first person in the room to roll my eyes when I heard the term, “Good Attorney.” However, after working with Jennifer Watkins, my faith has been restored. I was charged with a DUI in July. I had received one 22 years ago, which seemed like an eternity, so thought it would not be a big deal. I was wrong. Colorado is a tough state and DUI’s follow you through life. I interviewed few lawyers the week after my arrest, but felt but felt like I was being shoveled a pile of make believe. Other firms made false promises and wanted to charge me a fortune. I was a mess and contemplated the worst, I wanted to give up. That changed when I talked with Jennifer Watkins. She was the only one who didn’t make false promises and offered me hope. She was professional, kind, and brilliant. She did all of the paperwork and prevented me from losing my driver’s license and my sanity. Jennifer referred me to the best therapist and guided me through the entire legal process. I truly felt like she understood me and wasn’t just my ally, she was my accomplice. I cannot recommend her enough. Jennifer knows the system backwards and forwards and will do all she can to obtain justice. I made a big mistake, and she didn’t excuse me, but instead, helped me regain my self-esteem and become a better, humble person. Retaining Jennifer Watkins is one of the best things I have ever done.

A bright light in Boulder! She's the one to call! She walks softly but carries a big stick with her negotiating skills, intelligence, legal connections, and vast experience. I'd use the word wisdom. She TRULY cares and works her butt off to help her clients to the nth degree. Ms. Watkins is also a caring and loving person, a very evolved person. Call her first!

“Ms. Watkins helped me not only avoid prison time but also helped me to receive the best sentence possible and was extremely helpful throughout the entire process in explaining anything I did not understand or know. She’s not only an exceptional attorney but is also an incredibly caring and compassionate human being who truly advocated for me as her client but also as a person and wanted to know my story. As professional as she is, most of the time I felt like I was speaking with an intelligent and kind friend who also happened to be a skilled, experienced, and knowledgeable attorney. Highly recommend, If I could give six stars I would. Don't even look elsewhere, hire Ms. Watkins.

If you anyone you know who need a criminal lawyer also DUI, I recommend Jennifer Watkins in Boulder . She is superb and goes “above and beyond” to defend her clients Including going to the DA for plea deals trying to save them money. Jennifer is also very compassionate and considers that you are a person and even advises healthwise when she senses you are nervous or stressed. She Knows her way around as relates to legal matters And is also very compassionate. She really connects with her clients like they are family. I very highly recommend her....very very highly. If she could, I’d like for her to be my lawyer in all cases ……. financial, civil rights, criminal, family affairs, etc. I trust her and the decisions she makes for her clients.

After looking into quite a few attorneys and reviews, I decided to contact Jennifer Watkins Esquire in Boulder to help with a DUI citation. Boy, am I glad I did! She was extremely professional and helpful. Sometimes, even calling me just to see how I was doing. Going through a DUI can be very stressful. She was almost always available to take my call or email. Incredibly quick responses if she was wasn’t immediately in the office. Her rates were very reasonable. I was confident from the start she would get the best result possible with my impossible case. She gave me advice and directed me with options to give my case the best chance to succeed. I followed her recommendations and finished every last item. The end result was amazing. If you want a lawyer who goes above and beyond and really cares about her clients and results, she’s the one for you. I couldn’t have asked for a better outcome.

The right choice was made in deciding to work with Jennifer and I highly recommend her services.

I don't even know where to begin in my review of Jennifer Watkins representation. Perhaps I should start with the result I got. I was charged with two serious misdemeanors and a felony. You read that correctly: a FELONY. I ultimately plead guilty to a MUCH reduced misdemeanor that resulted in a mere 24 hours community service and probation. I could be in prison. When I finally recovered from the shock of what I had experienced and the charges that were leveled on me, I very lucidly realized I needed a lawyer. And I needed a very good one. I started digging on the internet, and I spoke with several in my area. The only one that seemed to be the total package was Jennifer Watkins. She was kind, understanding, professional yet warm, empathetic, and most amazingly, she was razor sharp. It seemed like she knew what I was going to say before i opened my mouth to say it. She knew what I was worried about, she knew what I needed to hear in order for me to soldier on and take care of the parts of this ordeal that I needed to handle. And that's a critical part of this process: there were some things that I needed to do - and Jennifer encouraged and led me in the right direction so that I could do them. It's interesting that no matter where I looked, I found nothing but 5-star reviews for her. You'd think that someone that reviews that highly would be kind of egotistical, or holier-than-thou... She's as down-to-earth and humble as a person can get, especially an incredibly astute and talented lawyer. At ANY level of critique, you will not find a better lawyer for this kind of legal matter than Jennifer Watkins, Esq. If you're in trouble in a situation like this, do yourself and your future a favor and get Jennifer Watkins to represent you. I can't thank Jennifer Watkins, Esquire enough. Her hard work (and trust me, NO ONE works as hard as she does) and skill saved me from a future with a huge, dark cloud hanging over me.

Jennifer Watkins got my felony charges DROPPED! The results we got from working together on my case speak for themselves. Jennifer worked tirelessly to make sure I got the best possible outcome in the case. I was facing SEVERAL charges, the worst of which would have landed me in Prison. Jennifer got all of them DROPPED and one of them reduced to a MUCH lesser charge. Communication was excellent, and I always knew where we stood. She was very patient with me, and I never felt like I was just another number. I could speak volumes about how great she was in my case, but it wouldn't do justice to her. She is the consummate professional. I needed an advocate that would help me to understand what we were facing, and an advocate that would give me the direction I needed to handle my portion of the solution. Retaining Jennifer Watkins, Esq. was the smartest decision I could have made for my future. If I could give her 10 stars, I would!

I was involved in a minor accident while driving under influence of alcohol. I was charged with three cases DUI, DUI per se and reckless driving originally. I approached Ms. Jennifer as my brother referred her. She listened to all the story and answered all my questions. Through out the whole period, she replied to all my emails and phone calls promptly. She is very much available and had lot of patience to answer all sorts of my questions. By following her instructions, we were able to win the DMV hearing which is our first win. Due to which I am able to drive the car with out any restrictions . I requested her to postpone my court hearings multiple times due to personal reasons and she helped me in all instances. She is very much supportive and understanding. Finally, She helped me dismiss all those cases and reduced it to the lowest possible charge which is DWAI. Also, helped me get the minimum possible probation period. She knows the boulder justice system very well. Overall, I am very much happy to have her as my attorney and I would recommend her strongly. She is very kind, helpful and an excellent human being.

Jennifer was great and I would recommend her to anyone that finds themselves in a tough spot with a DUI and needs a lawyer. She was very responsive and seemed to have a lot of answers for me about whatever I needed to know, despite all the uncertainties that come with a court case. She genuinely seemed like she cared about the outcome of my case and I was thankful for that. She was very knowledgeable about the different laws and was a comforting presence during that tough stretch of time for me. While I certainly do not recommend getting a DUI, if you find yourself in such a situation, Jennifer is your person--10/10 would recommend.

Jennifer was great from the start. After my arrest, I was in panic mode calling a bunch of different lawyers. Jennifer stood out because of her calm demeanor and years of experience with DUI cases in Boulder County. She provided a free phone consultation and made me feel a lot more positive about my chances given the circumstances. She then provided a free in-person consultation where we discussed my options and her background in more detail. After hiring Jennifer as my lawyer, she recommended the necessary steps to take in advance of court and I’m so happy I took her advice, as taking Level 2 counseling and MADD panel proved to be instrumental in my sentencing. Level 2 counseling also was great to be around other people in similar circumstances and work through the process and learning together; I found myself thanking the counselor at the end for the breakthrough I had. While in court, it became obvious that Jennifer’s year’s of experience and relationships with the judges and DAs was strong, and led to the best possible scenario we were looking for. I received the minimums on everything we asked for and the judge was completely understanding. Throughout the whole process, Jennifer was extremely helpful with the ton of questions I threw her way, and her advice was spot on in the end. I highly recommend Jennifer to be your lawyer - she is great and well worth it!
