Tyler price

Hired April in hopes of taking care of my scumbag landlord that was ripping us off.... just to make this breif she was no help very incompetent and she sided with the plaintiff.. very disappointed she totally screwed us....

Mr. Price: Get your facts straight! You did NOT hire me for anything at anytime. At no time did I communicate with the opposing party or their attorney and your claim that I somehow “sided with the plaintiff” is false and ridiculous. Obviously, you are unhappy with what resulted from your actions and you have buyers’ remorse for whatever deal YOU negotiated with opposing counsel. That has nothing to do with me as I had no part in that. Defamation is actionable and I recommend that you immediately cease and desist the publication of lies about me and what I did or didn’t do. /s/ April L. Jones, Esq.

Excellent Service!

I called April in a panic on a Friday afternoon. While I know she was busy, she helped guide me in obtaining what I needed to get for her to assist me with my case. I then called back a couple hours later, and while she was gone, Floyd, her husband and Legal Administrator, took over and got me EXACTL...Y what I needed to clear my situation up. He stayed late to help me out, promptly sent over all documentation, and only charged me a VERY SMALL fee for their help. This is the second time I have worked with April and her team and am incredibly impressed. I would highly recommend.

Awesome.

I reached out to April Jones' law firm seeking help. I was being wrongfully evicted from my apartment. And being that I have 2 kids and 8 1/2 more ths pregnant. I would have had no where to go. I didn't want to be put out, especially when I bust my butt to make sure we can stay. But the landlords wer...e being bullys. They helped me through the whole process. Assured me that I was not in the wrong, and how to legally fight back and win. I will 100% reccomend her to anyone else.

April jones is an amazing attorney

We were told by our landlord to leave the house because he vintended to sell it at the very end of our lease. He gave us a 30 day lease extension, at a much higher cost. Then filed for eviction. My wife is Handicapped, and I over Ms Jones spent the time to get all the details to guarantee us an exte...ntion in court. Very compassionate, very reasonable, and instructed us on how to save money by doing some of the paper leg work in court ourselves. April Letitia Jones is the best example of a lawyer making the system just in what is a predatory rental market in Colorado. where the courts clearly favor the owner.

Nogotiated with corporate so I could stay in my home.

April did a great ob. Kept me well informed. Did not lie and coat things over as she said would be a tough case with no guarantee's. Always emailed the attachments to me about what was going on. Thanks to Aprils hard work and negotiating with corporate was able to turn case around for me. Would r...ecommend her to anyone and use her myself if need be.

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.
