Martin Jones knowledge of the law was excellent

My original opinion of the PD was that it was the option of last resort. I now believe it may be the option of first resort. . He has a good working knowledge of the court room and helped us understand how the system worked. He appeared to have good relations with the district attorneys office. I interviewed several private attorneys all them knew Mr Jones, spoke highly of him and recommended that I stick with him. I’m sure that attorneys for the PD’s carry heavy case loads. Mr Jones responded to our calls and emails in a timely manor. In court he always made time for our questions. I would like to thank Martin Jones and the PD’s office for their service.
