Zero stars!

Horrible attorney. Like the other reviews say, she will take your money and never contact you! I hired her and it took her over a year to get started because she had a “flood” in her office then she ghosted everyone for MONTHS without updating anyone on their case (according to other reviews on googl...e) Literally hire ANYONE but this attorney. She is a thief. Only positive reviews are from her wife and her friends.

Amy Jones is the WORST --- STAY AWAY FROM HER

We had the most terrible experience with this lawyer. She took money, stopped working, no response to any of e mail, and telephone and lied about the bill. we cannot believe that she is practicing the law.

A thief and Conn artist is all this person is

Me and wife paid this Amy Jones upfront $2500 Cash and NEVER heard or seen another thing from her in over a year! Causing more distress ! She literally stole money that would helped my wife from being very ill !! And now her life is in on the line and we are in a fight to keep her alive do to this t...hief taking advantage of us and praying on our desperation !! And ALL these REVIEWS that I know are FAKE should be a criminal act and treated as a crime and punishable by prison ! Shame on you if you are any part of this criminals behavior ! So Amy Jones I'm saying it again you are liar,thief,con artist that has takin precious time away from my family that's fighting for wife's life!!! And again All of the 5 star reviews are B.S. because No body I can find has seen or heard from her except on social media posting ball games new motorcycles, and having a ball on All of the people promised to represent! Please avoid Amy (Amelia) Jones at any cost !!!! 100% Con Artist!!!!

Scam

I used Amy Jones a couple of years ago and she done a good job for me and that was the reason I paid her to help me again this month with something I needed help with. She was returning calls and emails until I gave her 3800 dollars. After she received the 3800 dollar payment she disappeared. No c...alls, no email, no return email, no return phone calls. After paying Amy 3800 dollars, I had to hire another attorney to do the work I paid her to do for me. I've asked for a refund but have heard noting in return. It's been a month now and based on the other reviews from this year and last year my guess is my money is gone and I seriously doubt the bar will help me recover my money but I will file a complaint.

Great lawyer

I have been using Amy for years. I am not related to her. I didn't know her before I found her on line. She always does a great job for me. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a lawyer.

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2021.

Resignation in Lieu of Discipline issued in TX, 2021

updated on 02/22/2022

This means the attorney resigned in order to avoid being disbarred. "Disbarment" is the most serious penalty for a lawyer.

Partially Probated Suspension issued in TX, 2021

updated on 02/22/2022

Partially Probated Suspension means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. When the attorney returns to practice, he or she will be on probation, meaning the State monitors the attorney's activities for a period of time in hopes that he or she will not repeat the behavior.
