Dissolution of Marriage

I can't say enough about Louise and her staff. Louise is compassionate, honest, knowledgeable, highly motivated and enjoys her job. She responds to emails, texts, and phone calls in a timely manner; even responding in the evenings and late at night when I was in a different time zone. She kept me u...pdated at all times and was upfront with me on how she felt the case was proceeding; giving me her honest opinion with all the facts, and then letting me decide how I wanted to proceed. She was extremely supportive throughout the whole process of filing, mediation and the taking of depositions. I always felt informed. Her staff is also efficient and responsive to any concerns I had. I was pleased with the outcome of my settlement, and Louise continues to respond to issues that continue after the settlement. I would highly recommend Louise for her professionalism, knowledge, and compassion. After initially interviewing 3 other lawyers before selecting Louise, I feel that I made the right choice.

READY FOR EVERY TWIST AND TURN

Over the years I have worked with many attorneys and learned that they must have your best interest at heart or you are fighting a losing battle. Louise Jones is an attorney that will fight your battle to the bitter end. This year I found myself in a complicated situation that I never thought my da...ughter and I would survive. I put my trust in her and laid all of the cards on the table. She never doubted me and I never doubted her. Louise and her entire staff marched forward with me and handled each twist and turn along the way. She communicated with me night and day and did everything she could think of to keep us from harms way. Her ability to evaluate every angle of each situation comes with many years of experience as a criminal and family attorney. She is well respected amongst her peers in an out of the courtroom. Thanks to Louise and her staff I never gave up and today we can move forward with our lives.

Divorce/Dometic Violence Client

i Highly recommend Louise Jones as she is the best Lawyer in Palm Beach County. She is highly motivated and loves her job. She is very competent and honest. I cannot say enough wonderful things about the obvious she knows how to deal with very difficult opposing counsel and their clients. She i...s very thorough and gets to the truth of every matter she handles. I thank Louise from the bottom of my heart for all that she has done. I have never heard a judge compliment a lawyer for her phenomenal job on a very complex case. And she did a phenomenal job!!

True advocate

Louise handled my dissolution of marriage. I'm an attorney but was smart enough to know I needed an advocate and I found one in Louise. She always kept me informed, made sure I was prepared for mediation and have both legal and moral support.

"Louise Jones is an excellent lawyer. She specializes in divorce and family matters. She handles custody cases and she also does family matters related to criminal defense such as DUI and possession. I've referred many clients to Louise because I do not specialize in her type of practice. These clients universally tell me that Louise is caring, reasonable, smart and ultimately successful in resolving their legal matters. I endorse and recommend her without hesitation."
