Over the past few years we have had the opportunity to work with Jonathan on many complicated issues. He is incredibly professional, patient and thorough. An extra bonus in working with Jonathan is his wife Deanne! They are both wonderful and make a well rounded team. Without question, we would recommend Jonathan Watts. - Wendy and Earl Dunivan

We retained the services of Jonathan Watts following some issues with my father's estate -- to say it was complicated is an understatement. Jonathan was able to sort through the maze of tax issues, title issues, etc., and help us get to a point to be able to close out my father's estate. He and Deanne kept us up to date and went above and beyond to be sure that, going forward, we would not have any further issues. It was a pleasure to work with Jonathan and Deanne and I would not hesitate to refer anyone to them in the future.
We were so impressed with his work, that we also used Jonathan and
