LAWYERIN' IN WATKINS GLEN VILLAGE COURT

I practice here often. Watkins Glen Village Court is right in downtown Watkins Glen on the main street through town. It's close to the bottom of Seneca Lake and is walking distance to several restaurants all along Franklin St.

The Courtroom is new and spacious.  You will be wanded by a police officer upon entering the courtroom.  It is customary when your case is called--to go all the way up to the Judge's bench to discuss your case.  The District Attorney, Joe Fazzary, is there on most days --so your lawyer can often conference or resolve the case by speaking with him in court.  It's a good set up.

Judge:  Connie Fern Miller (new justice this year)

Address:  303 North Franklin St, Watkins Glen, NY 14891

Phone:  (607) 535-9717

Fax:  607-535-7621


Website:  www.watkinglen.us

COURT HOURS:  Thursdays at 3pm (may vary)

District Attorney Representative:  The DA himself ... Joseph Fazzary handles this court. 


Bottom line:

Take this with a grain of salt (but it is still true), It is important to know the people in charge of the Court where you are appearing...having a lawyer who knows the people can mean the difference in a good outcome vs. a bad outcome for your case.
