Richard Timothy Jones

Richard was awful and only helped me get my case dismissed after I threatened him with a poor review....well, here it is: I think he takes on too many cases and does not devote equal attention to all of his clients. Its not to say there's a chance he'll be able to help you, you'll just have to beg f...or attention before you get a response. And that response will almost ALWAYS be "I'll look into it later this week". After Richard missed my first court date in February of 2014 and allowed my case go into the bond forfeiture status (i.e. the courts start a Civil case against you), he couldn't even inform me when I eventually had a warrant out for my arrest. I was arrested in April of 2014 on my way to class at Texas State....granted, he DID get me out of jail that same day but, he COMPLETELY neglected to follow up with the courts in order to get my case cleared after I was released. 4 years later, my civil case goes into default and I owe the Travis County courts $2,000+. Fun fact: in Texas, you're responsible for your attorney's idiot mistakes. Richard's excuse/response will probably be something like "I didn't hear from her for four years" which is true, but from January 2014 when I hired him and April 2014, he did nothing except take my money, tell me he would "handle it" and then neglect my case entirely. See my attached picture...when I asked him about it after receiving the default judgement notice in Feb. of 2018, he gave me that "I'll look into it later this week" excuse AGAIN and I decided to call the courts myself to get it handled. Only after speaking with an extremely helpful Judge's aide AND the Asst. District Attorney for Travis County, was I able to get my CIVIL case dismissed, pro se (on my own with NO HELP FROM RICHARD, AT ALL). Yes, you read that right...the entity that brought the case AGAINST me was more helpful than my lawyer. A person (me) with ZERO legal experience was able to get the case handled in less than a week while Richard stood by, promising to help, when he had no intention to. I paid him an attorney's fee like everyone else and only got a four year headache and a day-long jail stay in return. Heed my warning....there are better lawyers out there than Richard Jones.

Richard is an excellent lawyer and handled my case in the most professional fashion. He was meticulous in his understanding of the law and details of my case and was not only helpful just to me, but also to my family members. Of most importance to me other than the outcome of the case - which was... favorable by the way - was that his communication lines were *always* open. That is one of the main reasons why you should hire Richard Jones's firm. Excellent Communication - Superb Representation - and Positive Attitude - and Favorable Results!

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...he money and did not do the work. We all here about how shady some attorneys are and I tried to keep an open mind. I would never recommend this particular attorney to ANYONE. I believe Mr. Jones is in it just for a paycheck and not for the good of his clients. I have read all of the reviews before posting my own and I wholeheartedly agree with the bad ones and I feel they are totally honest.

i was referred to Mr. Jones by a good friend of mine who had used Mr. Jones numerous times. I was incarcerated in county jail facing 3 felony failure to appear cases, a new felony and a new misdemeanor; i hired Mr. jones. i spoke with Mr. Jones on the phone and he assured me that he would represent... me and during my short stay of incarceration, he vehemently stayed in contact with my support group on the outside. i went to court 45 days later and 3 of my felonys and the misdemeanor were dismissed, my 4th felony was plead out as a misdemeanor, I received 90 days in the county jail and was released that evening. Mr. Jones was INCREDIBLE!!! he walked into the courtroom with such an impressive air of confidence, I was floored. he is the MOST QUALIFIED attorney i have EVER dealt with. only one word describes his legal ability...AWE-INSPIRING!!! need an attorney...Mr. Richard Jones is your man.

Richard was very professional, and really cared about helping me , returned my calls in an orderly fashion, very prompt and professional in the court room, he was very good at explaining to me and calmed me down when I was feeling anxious! He got my case of jail jumping completely dismissed ! EXCELL...ENT CHOICE OF LAWYER !!!!
