      Review John Jones

      Excellent caring attorney

      5.0 stars

      Posted by

      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.
