Would never recommend
I hired Mr. Jones to represent my son. He was terrible! He forgot details about my son including on of the most important, my son was on probation. One of his biggest selling points about himself was that he represented MANY people on probation and he would FIGHT for his client. He basically took t...
I work hard for my clients. I take hard cases and not just the easy ones. Sometimes the hard ones, where guilt is overwhelming or someone is on probation with multiple violations, don't workout as well as the clients wish. I can't change the facts. I do put my clients in the best possible position given what I have to work with. It's natural to want to blame someone. As the lawyer, I'm an easy target. I admit I have a busy practice and occasionally people feel left out. I tell them upfront when they hire me that if they feel that way to text me. That's why clients get my cell number. I respond to texts 7 days a week. If someone has an issue - whether real or imagined I'm here to deal with it. I stand by my work. I'm sorry this person was unhappy but I do my job well.

Misdemeanor Bond and Felony Bond
Originally, I had a different attorney that I met at my first court date. She said she was going to try to get me out on personal bond. I was denied personal bond with that first attorney. I was in jail for 2.5 weeks before Richard Jones came to visit me. He told me he would do his best. He said beca...
