Excellent caring attorney

Mr. Jones explained carefully and clearly every step of the way. It was easy to reach him or an assistant who was qualified and knowledgeable about my case. I feel Mr. Jones went out of his way to be sure I understood the issues involved. I felt I was an individual and not just a case to him.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
