Blessing

I have to say some of these reviews , Desean Jones got my husband case dismissed after he was wrongly accused , and falsely identified for being some one else who had committed aggravated assault w/ deadly weapon / attempted murder . Mr. Jones than cleared our debt of about at least 3,000 dollars sti...ll owed to him as an early Christmas gift . What person do you know would just clear almost 3000 dollars . Thank you Mr. Jones for everything you did for my family .

Not Recommended

I hired him to represent me against TXDOT and DPS. He took my money, signed a Contract then later denied I hired him. He recanted when I sited our contract. Next, he denied I hired him to move my cases to Federal Court. My contract said "Federal". I found out the Judge in the TXDOT case sent Jon...es and the Defense Attorney a letter directing them to perform limited discovery followed by Mediation. They both ignored the Judge. Finally, Jones tried to force me to give up my Federally Protected VA Medical Records without him obtaining a Protective Order to guard their confidentiality. I refused to waive my rights and Jones resigned and skipped with my Retainer money.

There are so many lies in this post. This clients discovery was completed and copies were even provided to his new attorney. The retainer paid for the work. The work was done. I disengaged the client.

Employment lawsuit

Very unprofessional, catches attitudes when asked questions. Very arrogant, every question I asked a rude answer was always given back in response. He was no help in my case I did the hard work for him. Once my case was finished, he no idea nor keep me updated about the checks. Every question asked i...n the lawsuit he didn't know the answer to it, so he would reply with a defensive statement; ex "I don't work for that company". When of course I already knew that, was just trying to understand and be informed about my case. I wouldn't recommend him to anyone. He treated my case as if it meant nothing to him, and as if my questions and concerns were getting on his nervous.

"No good deed goes unpunished." When I heard this client's story, I was disturbed by the employer's alleged actions. Cost was an issue for this former client, so I waived the small retainer to help because I found case seemed to have merit. But as many of us know, "beneficial actions often go unappreciated or are met with outright hostility." Notably, the former client complains about waiting on a checks ("plural")--which means I worked out an economic resolution to her claim. In other words, at the conclusion of this matter, the issues were favorably resolved. The former client was told that the checks would take 2-3 weeks to arrive, if no issues. This was based upon information provided by the former employer. I explained that the former employer was responsible for drafting and mailing the checks. Before 2 weeks expired client had called quite a few times asking about the checks. Client also asked if my office could write her checks. My office does not engage in writing employee checks. After being advised about a delay in the checks, the client was told there would be a delay in receiving her checks. Instead of 2-3 weeks, the checks arrived at approximately 4 weeks. The former client claims they did all the work, but never spoke to a decision-maker. Client does not mention that they were never offered any resolution until my office engaged the employer. The former client felt a mastery of employment law based upon Google searches and advice from friends--who do not practice law. On several instances she brought up multi-party, class action cases stating how much money they person received. I kept explaining that those dollar amounts were based on multiple plaintiffs. The former client often confused the case for an injury case or common ideas of car accident or injury cases. On several occasions, I explained how the damage models were different. And we couldn't just ask for money without any basis. I think the client was a bit money hungry. I enjoyed the case, at one point I thought about disengaging the case because the client was not good at listening, but I felt compelled to help her because of her lack of understanding. Ultimately, this former client left my office with two checks. I feel that justice was achieved because the former client was not being taken seriously by her employer until I got involved. If you a hire an employment lawyer, hire one who will explain the law to you and will tell you that you are wrong. You do not need a "yes man" or a "do boy", you need an advocate.
