Over priced and not able to contact after payment

Vaughn Jones is an over priced lawyer. Once he gets your money you will not be able to contact him. There is no one physically at his law office. He only returned my call when I stated I would not be using him for my daughter’s case. Whom he never spoke with. He called me with his arrogant smart mout...h. He would not give me a full refund. Only if i repeated after him on the phone saying he was a good lawyer which was not true. I think he was trying to record me saying this. And to beg for my full refund since he was not representing my daughter. Please do your research and don’t give him your money. You will never hear from him afterwards. Wish I had did my research. There are other lawyers!

Rest Easy....he has your back

He is busy, communication isnt the best but rest assured when your moment comes, HES GOT YOU. Also, a special thank you to his paralegal Spring.....Significant charges dismissed in under 5 minutes.

All about business

Best lawyer in my eyes of course he shows up and gets the job done. Definitely someone you can trust with your case he will definitely try his best to get the best option for you. I recommend to hire him if you have any problems with the court or justice system he will be by your side and won't leave... you hanging. Look no further the best lawyer is right here.

Great results

I was charged with 3 felonies, 2 of which were for controlled substance and the other for felony possession w/ intent to distribute marijuana. I had a prior felony as well for distribution of marijuana. Although there was heavy evidence against me Mr. Jones was able to reduce the distribution felony ...to a misdemeanor to avoid mandatory jail time. One of the felony possessions got nolle pros'd, and the other felony remained as part of the plea agreement set forth by Mr. Jones. Thus, concluding my 3 felony case as 1 felony and 1 misdemeanor. Mr. Jone's expertise was worth every penny. I'd highly recommend him.
