Posted by wb | August 24, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Forever grateful

I will forever be thankful that I came across a professional like Mr. Jones. Being a senior in college and trying to make the best of the unfortunates can really be a pain, especially when you live in another state. Through it all, Mr. Jones helped me throughout the whole court process, and was able ...to take care of everything else when I couldn't be present (finals are a bore). It was stressful, but without his help, I would been a way worse predicament. From a 2015 graduate- Thank you so much Chris. Stay Blessed and continue doing what you do- which is help people get their lives together.

Would hire again and recommend to others

I had a very great experience when I recently hired Chris Jones to represent me. He is very knowledgeable in a variety of areas. It was easy to contact him and his responses to my questions were always prompt and thorough. He resolved the case quickly and affordably. I would hire him again withou...t hesitating!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"When Mr. Jones was a prosecutor with the Clark County District Attorney's Office, I defended several defendants in cases that he was prosecuting. Mr. Jones was always very well-prepared and was able to anticipate the issues that I wanted to raise. These are the exact qualities someone would want from their attorney. I think Mr. Jones is particularly well-suited as a criminal defense attorney and his clients will benefit from his experience as a prosecutor."
