Attorney Jones was very professional, extremely responsive when contacted at the last minute, and got right to the heart of the matter and helped our family. I have worked with many attorneys over the years, and Attorney Jones is one of the best! Our Municipal Court matter required someone with deep knowledge of the jurisdiction and local players, and it became apparent immediately that all those involved knew, respected, and trusted Mr. Jones to argue a fair resolution. I highly recommend Attorney Jones.
