Amy Jones

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.

I hired Ms. Jones on 12/19/16. Initially everything went well and she was a power house until 11/13/18 when she filed a second lawsuit CC-18-06252-C on my behalf the day before sh had surgery. She was out of the office recovering for 14 days, so after the end of November I began to call her office... to see when the certified letters would be posted.  She gave me excuse after excuse for weeks as to why they had not, until I called and demanded some answers only to be told that that they had been found on a desk. They were not sent out until mid January, 45 days AFTER THE COURT ISSUED THE CITATION. The citations were returned unexecuted January 11, 2019 and SHE DID NOTHING on my case until on March 6, 2019 the judge filed a notice of dismissal for April 12, 2019. Ms Jones filed an order to retain and several other motions on April 11,2019, the day before the dismissal hearing.  The Judge filed a notice of deficiency on April 30, 2019.  Ms. Jones did not address the deficiency and the judge began to move the case for dismissal each month beginning 5/17/19, 6/21/19, 8/2/19 and 9/13/19. I demanded information and updates and was somewhat placated until 8/6/19. At the hearing on Friday, 8/2/19, Ms. Jones told me that she had e-filed the materials but that they had been rejected because they were of poor quality. I checked the court portal on Monday 8/5 and called the court clerk on Tuesday 8/6 asking why the documents had not been posted to my case.  They made it clear to me that there had been no attempts to post anything to my case by Ms. Jones electronically for months.  I called, emailed and texted her several times and got no response until I sent her a certified letter. She will tell you that her office was flooded with a sewer line break June 24,  which created a nightmare situation for her and that is very true......but that was AFTER the second dismissal hearing AND after she had received an affidavit from a process server that she should have filed with the court, BUT THERE IS NO DEFENSE FOR LYING TO A CLIENT WHICH SHE DID WIN GREAT DETAIL TO MY FACE. I feel that this Lawyer intentionally sabotaged my case.  She wasted precious months doing nothing and created great financial hardship for me because I had to hire new counsel and pay him to get up to speed on my case.
