Marquis Delafayette Jones Jr

Marquis D. Jones saved my sick disabled special needs child’s life more than twice in 2017 and again in 2018, when he stopped the wrongful forced court order to remove my disabled child from his medical treatments, team of medical specialist, and rehabilitations from North Carolina where he resided f...or two years. The removal would have killed my sick son. Custody remained with me. Marquis went above and beyond in being a lawyer, but he is a "life saver." Jones, was the lifeline of my sick disabled child from the time I retained him in 2017. Marquis understood my child's medical needs came first and he fought for me as an single parent and as father to keep sole and physical custody. He fought every step for my special needs child who suffers with an array of medical diagnoses. I trusted this lawyer with my child's life and my own, as I was deceived by other lawyers in the past with my case and who never appeared in court but took thousands of dollars of my money. This court battle went on for 3 years before I met Marquis D. Jones, Esquire and he closed the case and transfer the jurisdiction so my disabled son can remain in the state to continue his medical treatments. As a lawyer, Marquis D. Jones, and his law firm was also very knowledgeable about Sovereignty of Indigenous People, Federal Indian Law Rights, Tribal Rights and the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) enacted by the Congress, at which this tribal judicial practice is highly needed in New Jersey, Connecticut, and New York to protect Indian Children where alot of Tribes and American Indian communities / reservations exist today. By Mr. Jones having this knowledge in Federal Indian Law, he maintained the Tribal Rights, which most lawyers today may lack this very specific education in Federal Indian Law, Indian Child Welfare Act and Tribal Rights. He was very dependable, consistent, passionate, strong, and excellent, but most of all, he listened to me and that also made a difference. Any time I needed to call him and speak about a urgent matter, he was always there and he never put me off. Mr. Jones, always communicated with me. The law firm and Marquis knew how bad my situation appeared to be, but they believed in me first and not the lies. It's important to have that trust specially when lies have been put on parents or fathers in custody battles. Mr. Jones fights for the "best interest of the child." In my case, Marquis Jones did court investigations in my file and found missing documents and he found something was very wrong. He went back to the Courthouse and requested the missing documents, which was taken out on purpose to remove my child from his medical treatments, then he found the truth that was needed. Because of his prior years as Superior Court Judge, he knew what to do and how to handle it. Moreover, his experience brings other lawyers to respect him in the Court and his law firm. Marquis D. Jones will fight until the end for what is right. Marquis is a Super Lawyer and the best.
