I called Mr Jones and explained my situation. Once he was hired, he took care of everything. I didn't have to worry or wonder what was going on in my case. He got me a GREAT deal! I highly recommend him.

30 minutes late on day of sentencing. Filled motions late. Don't waste your money.
Client was charged in Federal Court with drug trafficking and had a mandatory minimum of 10 years prison. I was able to negotiate an amended charge and a sentencing range of 2-4 years. On the date of sentencing, I checked the court docket and confirmed court was at 10:30 am. The court called me at 10:00 am and told me that they changed the time to 10 am but did not update the docket. I was in court by 10:20 am. I litigated a motion to have the client designated as a minor participant, and the U.S. Attorney's Office told the court that they did not oppose the motion. The court considered and denied the motion in spite of the non-opposition. Client, who was also on State Parole at the time of this offense, was sentenced to 4 years prison. Client was disappointed with the outcome in spite of the sentence being 6 years below the original mandatory minimum sentence. After 27 years of trial practice in criminal law, and multiple jury trial wins in Federal Court, this is my first bad review. You cannot always please everyone.

Unfortunately I was federally indicted in a large conspiracy case. There were over 30 others that were indicted and I wasn’t even added to the case a month or two after the case had started. I mention that part because I was one of the defendants that started fighting their charges after everyone els...

A+! Exceeded All My Expectations!!! Responded quickly to my calls & emails. He is very knowledgeable and comfortable in the courtroom. He eased all my stresses at court and got me off! Thank you for your amazing work.
"I have lived and worked in the Heber area for over 7 years and Ed Jones has a sterling reputation in the community. In a small town like ours it is impossible to hide anything for long and Mr. Jones has a proven track record of integrity and excellence in legal advocacy."
"I've been friends from Mr. Jones since elementary school, and was his room mate in law school. While never having the pleasure to work with him on any matters, as we are not licensed in the same jurisdictions, I am aware of his experience and record as a prosecutor, as well as his private practice experience. I know him to have great court room skill as well as research and writing abilities. More importantly, I know him to be of the highest character. I highly endorse this lawyer's work."
