Mr Leigh Jones

Misty is a pleasure to work with. She does not loose herself in legal jargon which is helpful to a layman. Many lawyers use 1000 words to say what could be said in 10. Misty says it in 10. This shows me that she doesn't feel the need to show people how smart she is. All good qualities.

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.
