A pleasure to work with

I was very happy with the representation I received from Mrs. Jones Law firm. Very polite and professional.

Child custody case

I’m just getting around to this a year later, first thing this lady has a snappy attitude, she showed up to the custody hearing with no cross-examination questions, I looked over at her she started making up a few questions on the spot right before her time to cross exam, I said to myself what in th...e hell. Prior to the child custody trial, I emailed her questions she could potentially ask because I knew the opposing party’s situation and they were not truthful. Throughout the entire trial she probably objected the opposing council a hand full of times. When I would look at her face, it was like a dear in the headlights, she was stuck. it was like she was afraid of the opposing council. We took a bathroom break during the custody hearing and my character witness came over to me and said you need to fire this lady, I told him, I had already paid her. During this entire experience, this attorney was extremely apathetic, she did the bare minimum, she did not put any effort into this case; really quick phone calls, did not put any time and research in the case. My child’s mom even asked me where did I get that lawyer from? This lawyer has absolutely no business in the legal field.

Child support case

Mrs. Jones represented me in a CS case and she delivered what she promised. I remembered when I first interviewed her, I knew she would do a good job. However, she didn’t do a good job, she did an excellent job representing me. She responded all my emails in a timely manner, her assistant was alw...ays there with reminders and more. I worked with another lawyer before her and I learned how hard is to find a good family lawyer. Particularly those on the side of the father and I strongly recommend Jana Jones. You will not regret hiring her, she is very knowledgeable and she will have your best interest in mind when going to court. She know her way around the court and knows exactly how to address toughest judges. Bottom line…. She is really good One more thing and most important… when it comes to legal services… she is fair when it comes to her fees. You will not have any billing surprises, if you used legal services before you would know what I am talking about it. She is there to do the job, not to get your money.

Contempt case

I would not recommend Mrs. Jones to anybody. She didn’t prepare for my case. She got completely out lawyered by the opposing attorney. Her pleadings were drafted incorrectly for a criminal contempt case. She didn’t do a good job laying out the evidence for contempt through my direct exam, my fiancée ...came to the hearing to offer supporting testimony, she decided not to call her. Her cross examination was totally unprepared. And she faces the worst closing argument I have ever heard. At one point she tried remove her mask claiming she couldn’t breathe. She nice to be a nice lady, she has a good mission. But she appeared to provide highly ineffective assistance.

Family law consult

Mrs. Jones was courteous and answered all of my questions during the consult. She gave me great information even though it wasn't something she specifically handled. She gave a road map on what to do next and referrals to help me solve my legal issue.
