Happy CLIENTS
Cecilia helped my husband and I prepare our wills and trusts. She was very helpful in explaining the documents and process. Not only responsive, she came in on her day off so we could sign the docs. She has a great personality and made us feel comfortable.
Tiffany 
I rate Ms. Jones excellent because she has provided prompt and thorough responses to our requests for employment related issues/concerns. She explains information so that the non-legal person understands the response. She researches similar cases so that she can provide the thinking of the courts and juries in their decision making as it relates to your issue. She returns your calls and emails quickly and gives you a comfort level that she will provide the best legal advice.
