I handle workers' compensation, automobile accidents, personal injury, medical malpractice, criminal defense, traffic, and DUI/DWI cases. As a former prosecutor and former insurance defense attorney, I was able to gain a unique perspective of how the other side operates in a case. I bring those experiences to the table when I represent clients with criminal, DUI, or traffic charges or clients who have sustained injuries as a result of another's negligence.
I am also a trained mediator. This experience allows me to better represent clients who are ordered to participate in mediation. It also allows me to evaluate a potential case and recognize when litigation is not the best course of action for a client.

It is rare to find an attorney these days who is well-versed in many areas of the law. Ms. Jones is one of the few. From personal injury to DUI defense work, Ms. Jones is well-versed in the law and her professionalism never takes a day off. If you need help in Maryland, give her a call. You will not be disappointed!

Tracey Ritter, Workers compensation Attorney on Mar 27, 2015
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I wholeheartedly endorse Joyce Jones to anyone seeking smart, thorough, and aggressive representation. Joyce knows the law and gives her clients the individualized attention their cases deserve. This however, can be said about a lot of lawyers. What sets Joyce apart is compassion. She understands that her clients are people who have lives and families; they are not just another file to her. This is an important quality to find in any lawyer, but particularly in a Workers' Compensation lawyer. Without exceptional representation, an on-the-job injury can turn an injured worker’s life upside down very quickly. Joyce is a skillful advocate and obtains great results for her clients.
Elisha Hawk, Personal injury Attorney on Mar 27, 2015
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
I met with Ms. Jones while working as an attorney at Janet, Jenner & Suggs. She was the team leader on a mass tort at the time, and I knew her to be an excellent role model and mentor for the attorneys who worked with her. She gave clear direction and constructive feedback, and the clients' best interests guided all of her work. I admired most her fearlessness.
An excellent attorney in an extremely difficult field, who is an excellent advocate for clients. I endorse this lawyer.
Daniel Miller, Medical malpractice Attorney on Mar 17, 2015
Relationship: Worked together on matter
Joyce and I represented separate groups of victims in the St. Joseph coronary stent litigation, a complex project that lasted over 4 years, including numerous state cases, and a federal class action. There were many complex legal questions such as hospital insurance coverage, charitable immunity, and a multitude of negligent and intentional tort theories. She and I became close allies due to her excellent knowledge of the law, her fighting spirit in the face of contentious discovery proceedings, her ability to manage numerous cases simultaneously, and her wonderful personality that made it a pleasure to work together collaboratively. We had many spirited debates on the law, and she was always well prepared and ready for any challenge. She is an attorney I call when I need someone I trust to help solve difficult legal problems. I give her my highest recommendation as a lawyer who truly cares about her clients and one who possesses the talent and dedication to win cases.
Kevin Joyce, Workers compensation Attorney on Feb 24, 2015

I have had the pleasure of working closely with Ms. Jones on protracted and complex litigation and I remain impressed at her professionalism, legal knowledge and tenacity as an advocate for her clients. I am proud to count Joyce as a friend and colleague who I can trust to generously provide her insight into nuanced legal issues - and to whom I can refer worker's compensation clients, malpractice victims, and others who can benefit from her assistance. Ms. Jones' clients are in good hands and I endorse this lawyer.
