Calming and Supportive

Alex handled my divorce, following 14 years of marriage and including custody issues of two children. He did an excellent job of communicating with me concerning my case and ensuring I made good decisions, based on logic and reason, rather than emotion. He was a calming voice in a time of turmoil. ... And, he was less expensive than many of the other attorneys in town. While I can't recommend divorce, if you need to seek a divorce, I highly recommend you let Alex handle it for you.

marriage dissolution

I hired Alexander to represent me in a complicated, contentious and difficult divorce. He was a calming influence when it came to dealing with the various emotional and mentally exhausting situations that arose, keeping me focused and reminding me what my priorities were. I found him to be knowledgea...ble and well aware of all areas of the rules and laws regarding marital dissolution in Oregon. I came away well satisfied with his work ethic!

Divorce

I hired Alexander Jones for my divorce. He was very good and helped me as much as I could be helped. He always had time for me and answered all my many questions.

Highly Recommended

After researching divorce attorneys in my area I decided upon hiring Mr. Alexander Jones because of his specific experience with divorce and his positive recommendations. I have not regretted my choice at any point along the process. Mr. Jones was knowledgeable, firm, and clear as to my rights ...and responsibilities in my case. This made the process less daunting for me. There were extenuating circumstances and property complications that held up the process, and he was able to advise me as to the best way to approach and be proactive to resolve. Mr. Jones was looking out for my best interest. When I was confused, emotional and lost, he was calm, steady and clear. A divorce can be a painful and laborious process no matter how you approach it, but hiring Mr. Jones was the best choice I made throughout the situation. He was upfront concerning costs, and his billing was clear and concise. I highly recommend him as a divorce attorney.
