Very Good

Attorney Jones is honest and straightforward. She does not always tell you what you want to hear but she tells you what you need to hear with legal guidance. She is compassionate about what she does and based all matters off facts. She does not leave you guessing or confused, she is transparent w...ith her legal delivery. She seems to hold herself accountable to her clients and will exhaust all avenues of resources/data in representation of her clients. She is personable yet professional. I have not regretted the legal work that she has done for me and my family. I have recommended her service to others who are looking for a good attorney. They too have been impressed. Keep up the great work you were called to do Attorney Dana G Jones.

Attorney Jones is knowledgeable, comprehensive, strategic, one step ahead, and a legal advocate who cares, who will keep you informed, who will fight for you, and be the voice you need to represent vs the opposing party and their attorney. My needs were put first and I was treated as a friend rathe...r than a number. My opinions were valued and my doubts were always reassured. My nerves were calmed and the process was always explained. Attorney Jones continues to fight hard for me and my 3 children. She has went above and beyond - from unexpectedly driving to Georgia for a bankruptcy court hearing that we were not invited to. Ensuring I was represented and acknowledged resulting in the dismissal and saved me and my 3 children from the unknown. To holding the defendant accountable to agreements and not compromising. I couldn't have asked for a more knowledgeable and credited attorney. I just wished I asked 5years ago!. Thank you! I may not be the ‘most profitable client’ of yours, but I will confidently tell you this… I am your ‘most grateful client’ and that comes from my heart. I want to thank you for the crucial and priceless information/advice you have given me regarding taking my power back!

Platinum standard

The first quality you need to be a good attorney, is to first be a good human being Attorney Jones is that and so much more she is knowledgeable ,professional hard-working,compassionate kind ,honest she knows how to get things done . She was there for me from the moment I walked into her office and ...long after I left the court. She went above and beyond the call of duty for me there were times when I would go into a panic about one thing or another and with her calm and reassuring voice would talk me down from the ceiling and let me know that we were in it together and she would help me through it. She gave me her honest opinion and her guidance ,when I needed it. It was always right on point and in tune with what was most beneficial for me at the time. Attorney Jones is a champion for her clients the first day I met her I told her I was new to the area and I didn't know many people she said well, now ,you know me. I want to thank you from my heart for all your help. Ms. DANA G. JONES!!!

Excellent services received

I retained her to resolve a legal matter years ago initially via word of mouth. After my first consult, I’ve been sold on Attorney Jones. She is knowledgeable, gives very timely fact-based feedback and is intensely concerned about her clients which is rare for lawyers. She took the time to check o...n me months after my initial case was closed. I’ve used her several times since with excellent results. She’s worth her weight in gold!

Did not care about me

She did not care about my case, she just cared about the money. Once the money is paid she changes her tone. First meeting with her was great after I made payments everything changed.

I often find that client's perceptions are sometimes quite different from actual circumstances. Thank you for your response, as this allows me and my firm to consistently strive for client satisfaction, "clear" client objectives and expectations. I wish you continued personal success in your future endeavors. Kindest Regards

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I'll begin by sharing that Dana is highly regarded in the legal community. Attorney Jones provides top-notch advocacy to her clients and she's one of the few brilliant legal minds that I call upon to advise me on matters I handle. She's a fierce renegade that holds them and folds them as her client's needs dictate. She's aggressive and strategic while, compassionate and reasonable. She is what every attorney should aspire to be. As such, I endorse her and recommend her without reservation. Please, place her on your short list of attorneys qualified, ready and able to tackle your legal issue."
