also known as Law Office of Sherry Ivey Jones, Sherry Jones P.A.
Attorney Sherry Ivey Jones leverages years of courtroom experience to defend clients facing criminal charges across Florida. She launched her career as an Assistant State Attorney in the Third Judicial Circuit, taking on matters that ranged from minor traffic infractions to armed robbery felonies. Later, as a prosecutor in the 16th Judicial Circuit of Florida—serving the unique communities of the Florida Keys—she handled Fish and Wildlife Resource cases, sharpening her unique criminal law skills. Recognizing the value of the defense perspective, Sherry joined the Eighth Judicial Circuit Public Defender’s Office, where she juggled more than 300 cases simultaneously. That intensive caseload not only deepened her practical knowledge but also taught her to think several steps ahead of opposing counsel. Today, Sherry draws on her dual roles as both former prosecutor and seasoned public defender to create winning strategies and protect her clients’ interests at every stage of the criminal justice process.

"I endorse this lawyer. Sherry is an extremely kind and caring human being who works tirelessly for her clients. I highly recommend her!"
"I fully endorse Sherry and the work she does. She is a strong advocate for the rights of her clients and is an ardent proponent of enforcing proper legal and judicial procedure. I have referred clients to her and will wholeheartedly do so in the future."
"Ms. Jones has been an ardent protector of the rights of the accused for many years. She is extremely thorough, creative, socially adept and intelligent. Her intelligence, thoroughness, level of preparedness, social aptitude and the fact she truly cares for the clients he chooses to represent makes her a truly outstanding lawyer. I have been a trial lawyer for thirty years, have a preeminent rating (AV) from Martindale-Hubbell ™ and would not stake my reputation or recommend someone who I truly did not believe is not only extremely effective but also has a high degree of personal and professional integrity. She treats not only her clients with respect but is also highly effective at communicating with prosecutors which generally results in a great outcome for her clients."
"Sherry loves the courtroom and enjoys helping her clients as much as possible. She takes the time with each person she represents, to ensure that they fully understand the risks and potential rewards of every move, at every step of the way."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Ms. Jones since she was a student in my class at the University of Florida. I have met few attorneys as dedicated as she is to putting the needs of her clients first. Too many lawyers forget that each client is their "employer" and deserves special treatment. You will get that treatment from Ms. Jones along with truly exceptional representation."
"I endorse this lawyer.Sherry Jones is very personable and reliable. She has a lot of experience in Florida Criminal Law, as well as in Family Law. She knows most of the prosecutors in the courts she practices in which is a big advantage in negotiating plea deals and charge bargains"
