About Betty

 
When you hire B. Elaine Jones to represent you, you get B. Elaine Jones.  I make myself fully accessible to you and charge reasonable rates for the services I provide.  I am a native of Tampa Bay being born in Tampa, Florida in 1959.  I went to high school at H. B. Plant High and attended Hillsborough Community College and University of South Florida for my undergraduate degrees.  Prior to attending law school, I held a degree as a paralegal and worked in a local law firm.  I do all of the legal work on your case this allows me to offer my services for a reasonable fee.  In November of 2021, I left the Law Office of David M. Goldman to go back to practicing as a sole practitioner.

The areas of law in which I provide advice are:  Family Law, Guardianship, Criminal Law, Small Business, Wills, Trusts and Probate, Employment law and Personal Injury.  Most initial consultations are free and are done via telephone, GoToMeeting or via Zoom.
