Ms. Watkins is an exceptional attorney that has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to estate planning and administration. I recall having an issue trying to decide whether to file a petition for a formal administration or summary administration because there wasn't a lot of personal property but there was some land. I called Ms. Watkins and she knew what questions to ask which helped me make a good decision. She also advised me on the pros and cons of filing each petition. She was a great help and I would refer her to anyone needing an estate planning attorney!
