Richard Timothy Jones

Hired Mr Richard and regret it now. Very poor response, he is not organized and often forgets about the case details. He got me nothing (not even tried) except to just take what the prosecutor gave us. He has no secretary or help and so you are at the mercy of his memory. Made me sign the prosecutor... documents in the court in the last minute without properly discussing and explaining me what I was signing. Basically, he was all sweet before hiring and then no time for me after.

My husband got picked up on 8-1-16 I did all I could that day to get him out but it didn't work.. I contacted Mr. Richard Jones that night he got back to me then next day 8-2-16 told me to meet with him the next day 8-3-16. He didn't ask to may questions he kept in contact with me via text he was pro...mpt and answered all my questions. very nice guy!!! If your in need an attorney Mr. Richard Jones is the guy to see

In speaking with so many lawyers to help my fathee\r with his cases and jail release I honestly started to doubt anyone's ability to get him out and help defend him. When I decided to hire Richard he told me that he "truly wanted to help us out." The next day he was already advising me that my dad wo...uld be released so that he could fight his cases from the outside. I am so grateful for his help. He has a wonderful manner and I appreciate his hard work. I know I made the right decision.

In short, I would hire him again without hesitation. Today, my case was dismissed and in 6 months the arrest history will be expunged. (will update here, if possible) At length: As a first time offender, the whole process was daunting to say the least. I emailed a number of lawyers the morning fo...llowing my arrest and within what seemed to be no more than an hour, he contacted me. He was also the only one to respond. In retrospect, I suppose the thing I appreciated most was Mr. Jones' ability to keep my mind at ease. Despite the regrettable fact that I have one of those overactive minds that's always jumping to the worst possible outcome, there was never a point in time that I didn't feel taken care of. Or perhaps even more importantly, I never felt like a nuisance for requesting to have my mind put at ease. The man is experienced and thusly is efficient with his time. If you don't need to be somewhere, he won't ask you to be. It's been my experience that if you try to relax and trust him to orchestrate the process, you'll have a much better experience.

IMPORTANT: If you have been assigned Mr. Jones, IMMEDIATELY start recording ALL conversations, and save multiple copies of ALL documents and ALL recordings you've made in multiple secure locations. Be nice and discrete even when he is obviously acting against your interests, and he will likely provid...e you what you need for a retrial (if convicted) and a potential lawsuit against him and/or the court. Mr. Jones pays for positive reviews on multiple sites, and all calls to his office are recorded. If the recording(s) contains evidence that can be used against Mr. Jones or his legal assistant/secretary, it will disappear and you will never get it. However, if it can be used against you, it likely will in the event that you claim malpractice or ineffective assistance of counsel. In Williamson County Mr. Jones operates under a financial conflict of interest with the prosecuting court, and he will not advocate for you as much as he acts in the best interests of his career (which means the best interest of the court, his "adversary"). I suspect that Mr. Jones has to request court appointments because few, if any, of his former clients would recommend him. Although Mr. Jones is well educated (UT Law), and generally understands and is able to apply legal concepts, he appeared to not only not care about my case, but he began to actively prevent me from defending myself effectively (i.e. I would have been better off with NO attorney). I sustained significant financial injured as a result of the baseless accusations against me, and he did not even attempt to prevent it. After some five months of delays, refusing to even speak to the prosecutor, refusing to provide me my case-file, providing me false information about many topics, using deception to manipulate me and prevent me from speaking with the court, tampering with me as a witness, hanging up on me, refusing to return calls and actively trying to avoid me, etc. (basically your nightmare attorney), I fired Mr. Jones and went with the cheapest attorney I could find. It is generally a bad idea to hire the cheapest attorney you can find. This other attorney that was far less professionally competent got the charges against me dismissed. Although Mr. Jones refused to take any action that would help my case, he was preparing for sentencing, and I am quite certain I would have been wrongly convicted under his counsel. AVOID at all costs.
