Best Lawyer in Columbus!

I was referred to Mr.Jones by a close friend of mine. Mr. Jones was by far the best lawyer I could have chosen for my case. He called me almost everyday and kept me updated on my case. The public defender I had before him told me I wouldn’t receive anything less than five years in prison Mr. Jones g...ot me off with a suspended sentence with no jail time upon me doing 80 hours community service and paying my fines. I recommend anyone who needs a good lawyer to give him a call. If it wasn’t for Mr. Jones I would have got a sentence I didn’t deserve. Thanks to him I get to be with my kids everyday and provide for my family and my wife not struggle to make ends meet. I will forever be grateful.

Best Attorney Around

Mr. Jones represented me on firearm charges. I was previously convicted of a felony and federal charges. The previous lawyer I had was offered to plead me guilty and I would have gotten a year to serve in jail. I then hired Mr. Jones. He represented me and was able to work out a probation sentence af...ter he had threatened to file a motion to suppress and go to trial. He spent a lot of time and effort on my case and obtained evidence which convinced the DA not to send me to jail. I live in another city and Mr. Jones always returned my calls and kept me informed as to what was going on in my case. Also, I had several surgeries and he was able to continue the case and provide documents from my doctor. I really feel that I would now be in jail had I not hired Mr. Jones

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.

He presents an aura of competence, confidence, concern, and compassion in his dealing with his... clients. Never one to brush you aside, or feel that your concerns are unimportant, he listens to you. I have often said that he has the patience of Job. He stands head and shoulder above the rest in working diligently to ensure that he gets the best results for you. I highly recommend Attorney Jones to any potential client seeking sound legal advocacy in the courtroom. Much gratitude to you, Attorney Jones, for your professionalism and your dedication!

This is a criminal lawyer that you want on your side providing the best legal representation

We hired Mr. Jones to represent our family member who is charged with two felony charges and a probation violation. Mr. Jones has kept us informed and has worked with our family to help us understand what to expect and is providing the best legal representation for our family member in trouble... . With his legal knowledge of the system we are confident that our loved one will get the representation needed to help reduce these charges or get them dimissed. During times when a loved one is in trouble you want someone who can help that knows the legal system as it is very tramatic for the accused and for the family of the accused. Bobby Jones can provide that help. I would recommend him to anyone.
