PRO
also known as Scott Jones
Lifelong Knoxville resident T. Scott Jones believes in taking risks, but only when they benefit his clients. When attorney Jones is not fighting aggressively in court, he can be found skydiving or on the track, racing high-performance motorcycles at speeds of up to 200 miles per hour. As an experienced and fearless trial attorney, Mr. Jones embraces a challenge and often accepts cases that other lawyers turn down. Active with the Shriners, he emphasizes the importance of community service to each member of the firm. Attorney Jones demonstrates this by undertaking numerous pro bono cases each year. In addition to being a fierce trial attorney, he is also a Rule 31 Mediator in the Tennessee Supreme Court.
