Posted by Stephen Shultz | March 24, 2017 | Hired Attorney | DUI & DWI

Outstanding, Compassionate Attorney

I hired Mr. Jones to represent me for a DWI probation revokation. While that was pending, I was also charged with a bogus felony for Violation of a Protective Order. Mr. Jones was always very professional and showed up for my court dates on time and well prepared. He acted like he truly cared. He...'s not always available to answer his phone (as he's often in court); however, he is fantastic about answering questions and keeping you informed via text. He never acted like he didn't have time for me. Most importantly, in the end, through his counsel, patience, and relentlessness, my probation was not revoked, and the felony charge was completely dismissed. I sincerely highly recommend Richard Jones!!!!!!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
