Reckless driving ticket

He was able to get my reckless driving ticket down to a improper equipment, nothing went on my record. In addition he also completed this before my court date. Very excellent work!

Mr Jones not just a great lawyer but a great human being

Mr Jones not only fought hard on case but he also took time to make me feel like I was worth fighting for.He's not only extremely knowledgeable but very hard nosed about getting results.Mr Jones went well above and beyond for me...I would personally recommend him to anybody

Knows what he's doing, honest communication, fair price

I live in another state and was on vacation driving through NC when I was stopped and given a ticket that I thought was unfair. It was impossible for me to go to Halifax County court as needed to argue it, so I looked online for an attorney to represent me and handle the situation. On the phone other... prospective attorneys seemed to be recommending a somewhat-blind shotgun approach, whereas Mr Jones knew the court and its players, was knowledgeable about the SPECIFICS that he expected for my path ahead, and offered an honest, honorable, precise plan of what to do and why it was preferable. He spoke frankly, and I felt his pricing was reasonable, so I chose Mr Jones. He handled everything for me, and the whole process went just as he said it likely would (and his assistant Tekla was very helpful too). I would highly recommend his services.

We're so grateful!

We're so happy and grateful to have had Mr. Jones represent us. Because of him, we can now relax and know that everything has been taken care of in the best possible way. Thank you so much for your help!

Exemplary Counsel

I retained Mr. Jones to assist in resolving a contentious civil matter. His responses to my inquiries about case strategies and negotiation status, consistently, were prompt and helpful. As important to me as his legal competence was Mr. Jones’ genuine interest in my receiving a just outcome. At t...he risk of sounding cliché, Mr. Jones’ efforts went above and beyond all reasonable expectations in a matter like mine. I endorse him without reservation. Grace and Peace

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
