Brett Watson, chair of the firm’s Retail Banking Practice, has been appointed to the Inland Counties Legal Services (ICLS) Board of Directors. He will serve a three-year term. The ICLS advocates and provides free legal services to residents who are low-income, seniors, and with disabilities in San Bernardino and Riverside Counties. As a member of the board of directors, Brett will assist with strategic and organizational planning, fiduciary oversight and financial management, fundraising and resource development, and monitoring ICLS’ programs and services.
For more than two decades, top banks, credit card issuers, and financial institutions across the United States have called upon Brett to litigate issues relating to the full spectrum of their retail financial products. Clients appreciate his vast experience in both the legal and business side of their operations and his tactical and holistic approach to litigation. They also value his deep understanding of the typical tactics the plaintiff’s bar uses in prosecuting retail financial product matters. This understanding allows him to anticipate, often before filing a responsive pleading, how plaintiffs will approach litigation and what type of settlement demands they will make. This has earned him a reputation among the plaintiff’s bar that is beneficial to his clients.
