Criminal Defense 50%

The criminal justice system is designed to protect the accused. A Defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty. Unfortunately, too many citizens do not know how to navigate the criminal justice system. This lack of knowledge can cause drastic results that can follow them around for the rest of their lives. When you are charged with a criminal offense you need an experienced attorney who truly believes in protecting your rights.

Traffic Ticket

I had a traffic ticket from the summer and missed a court date. The courts wouldn't speak to me to plead my case. I found Attorney Jones online, he contacted me within 10 minutes of emailing him. Before hiring him as my lawyer he gave me the plan of action to handling my ticket. After being retaine...d, he began working on my case right away. He accomplished everything on our action plan. He helped save my driving record, insurance rates, and additional court fees. He's amazing and I recommend him to anyone.

Kindness to a stranger

Today I reached out to Kevin Jones about a small business administration matter. He answered his own phone, listened to my reason for calling and offered a valued recommendation. He was sincerely engaged in our conversation and gave me a rare, uncommon sense of trust, professionalism and genuinen...ess in the minutes we spoke. This never happens! Who does that these days - let alone a busy lawyer? All I can say is I’m so incredibly impressed that I will long remember him and gladly refer his services to a friend or stranger.

Excellent Lawyer

I recently hired Attorney Kevin Jones to represent me in a civil case that my wife’s ex-husband brought against me. Mr. Jones went above and beyond spending countless hours working on my case, he took my wife and I through the entire legal process step by step and ultimately had the case against me d...ismissed. If anyone ever needs an attorney then I would definitely recommend Attorney Kevin Jones.
