Jami Witbeck Jones

I retained Ms. Jones as my attorney in 2009, and she has been nothing but consistently excellent in every aspect of our relationship ever since. When I came to her, I needed help fighting a long term disability case against my employer who happens to be a rather well known and powerful corporation. M...s. Jones made me feel comfortable and safe from our very first meeting. After having been put through the wringer considerably for some time dealing with the issue on my own, I was mentally exhausted, emotionally defeated, and entirely convinced that I couldn't trust anyone. I was also convinced that no one would want to fight for me because of the bigness of who I was up against. Ms. Jones immediately set me at ease. She both listened and heard my entire story. She asked very specific and detailed questions to make certain she knew all the facts; she took time with me in order to get it right without rushing me through or implying I should speed things up. She ALWAYS returned my emails and calls without making me feel like a bother. She never failed to answer every question and address every concern. Most importantly to me as a client, she NEVER spoke defeat. If she ever had any doubts, she didn't put them on me which I appreciated very much since I had enough to worry about already. She was honest and realistic, she didn't mince words, however, she was always hopeful, always optimistic, and always of the mind that we were going to come at the issue from every legal angle available to us. In short, we weren't going down without a fight. For someone who had the fighting spirit beaten out of her, to have found a lawyer who had enough of it for the both of us was a blessing! By the way, we won. Although resolved, my case was somewhat ongoing due to reviews and re-evaluations. Ms. Jones never abandoned me. She remained on my team, she remained available to me to answer questions or give me a little guidance along the way. It made a world of difference! She is once again actively at work for me (2015) because my case took an ugly and unexpected turn. I immediately contacted her about the latest turn of events and, without hesitation or reservation, she was back in the fray with me and ready to fight once again on my behalf. I've dealt with other lawyers and have known many who have travelled this same disability road, and I've seen things play out much differently than my experience and not for the better. It truly does matter who represents you. The situation can look impossible but, if you have someone who not only cares but knows their job and the playing field well, believe me, you have more than a fighting chance no matter what anyone says! No lawyer is a magician, no outcome is guaranteed, but I know without a doubt having experienced it first hand and with that experience being over 6 years with Ms. Jones, the journey can be made less treacherous and frightening if you have the right travelling companion. Trust me, she will travel with you from start to finish, and you will never regret having chosen her, you will never feel you're going it alone, you will never have the sense of being lost or turned around, and, at journey's end, you will not in any way, shape, or form feel you weren't represented even one scintilla less than 110% of her very best. Can such a glowing review be true? I wouldn't have referred one of my very dear and extremely precious friends to her if there were any doubt in my heart Ms. Jones wouldn't handle her case with all the fierceness and determination with which she has and is once again handling mine. And, yes, she is fighting for my friend even now. If you're in any of the situations Ms. Jones specializes in, please, do yourself an enormous favor and call her right now. Having walked in similar shoes, I'm promising you it's okay, she's the one you've been hoping to find, your search ends here, you can rest, she's got this.

I brought Jami a disability case ... My disability insurance carrier suddenly decided I was OK and could go back to work and simply stopped paying after 7 years! In Michigan TWO appeals within the insurance company itself are required before you can dispute the company's actions in court. I thought... about trying to handle the appeal(s) myself (I'm a former media pro with heavy writing experience and pretty much an expert researcher). In the end, I brought the issue to another attorney who had helped my wife get her SSD benefits, who in turn referred me to Jami. After meeting her and discussing my case, I decided that the issue was far too complex to risk trying to fix without professional help. One of the best decisions I ever made! Jami handled the appeal and it never even got to the second "internal" insurance company review. My benefits were FULLY reinstated as a direct result of Jami's involvement. And she's been with me ever since assisting with other problems with the two insurance companies I currently have to deal with. I would HIGHLY recommend Jami if you have ANY problems in her particular fields of expertise!
