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.

DUI/Drug case
T. Scott and his team recently came to my families aid when our son found himself charged with alcohol and drug related offenses. Scott was very personable and understanding and flat went to the mat to save our son. We recommend him and his staff of attorneys highly!

Not on your side with car accidents
I am looking for an accident attorney and came across S Jones name. I used him over 20 years ago when I was rear ended, totaled my vehicle, sent me to the hospital and unable to work for weeks.

The fact that this contributor chooses to remain anonymous and references a 20 year old matter speaks for itself. In addition this attack post has already been removed for lack of a factual basis once by AVVO. It's disappointing to see it reappear with the verbatim language from before and even more of an indicator that the same is merely astroturfing from someone in an attempt to belittle me in order to improve their own standing. I have not nor would I ever give less than my best for a client, and as anyone knows there are no settlements effectuated except on specific instructions from a client. Case closed and a garbage review debunked!
