Probate

When our Mother passed away, my Sister and I had no idea what we needed to do with her will and what probate was. Bobby Jones was recommended by a friend. We hired Bobby and he took charge of everything. He explained everything and each procedure in detail. He handled everything and we basically jus...t had to sign the papers. His fee was reasonable and fair. We would recommend Mr. Jones to anyone who needed help probating a will. My husband and I will be using Mr. Jones in the future.

A GREAT ATTORNEY!!!!

I hired Bobby Jones in a Trafficking in Methamphetamine case in Harris County, Georgia. Although I was innocent, they charged me because they found marijuana and a gun in my car and 7 ounces of meth at the place I work. Much of the evidence was based on things taken from my cell phone. Mr. Jones file...d a great Motion to Suppress the evidence with the result that all charges against me and the other two defendants were dropped. He always answered my calls, worked hard on my case, and prepared me to testify at the Motions Hearings and Trial. I probably would be in jail if it were not for Mr. Jones. He got my bond reduced tremendously so that I was able to post it. He also won a forfeiture hearing which made them return my car and property. I would not hesitate to recommend. Mr. Jones as a attorney for anyone with a criminal or probate case. I truly am thankful for his hard work and concern.

Best lawyer within the state of Georgia

This man is very intelligent, knowledgeable, principled, among other things. He is a great lawyer. He has helped my son and me over the years. He cares for his clients, not just their case. He isn't just representing you for all your money either. I didn't have enough to pay. He lowered the price som...e and let me pay it little by little over time. He is a great man. Always a gentleman. You could never go wrong with him as your representation.

Horrible lawyer

I will never hire this lawyer again. He did not even do anything on my case. I would have gotten the same program I'm in now if I had not even hired a lawyer. I know this because I have talked to others with the same charge. He told me that he could get it fully dismissed and actually guaranteed it t...o me. Instead he did absolutely nothing.

Replied last November 04, 2015

Wow", first time in 36 years of practice I have gotten a reaction such as this. First, I would NEVER guarantee an outcome. Secondly, I work hard on EVERY case, as every case IS IMPORTANT to me (not only for the outcome for my client but, because of my personal reputation! Thirdly, the "alleged client" has not voiced these objections directly to me. If this IS an actual client, I would appreciate him or her contacting me. I can think of no client of mine who would feel this way and would not have already voiced these feelings to me or my staff.
