We were very pleased with Mr Jones. He explained everything that was going on and kept an open line of communication. He is understanding and patient. I don't feel that I would have received any better representation at any other firm. I strongly recommend the Law offices of Franklin Jones.

I simply needed to thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you have done for me and my family. Winning this case means more to me than I can adequately put into words—it’s our future back, it’s peace of mind, it’s justice. There were moments when I felt overwhelmed and doubted the process, but your confidence and clarity always guided me through. I never felt like just another case file to you. You listened, you understood the human element at stake, and you fought with a passion that was truly awe-inspiring. Watching you work in the courtroom was like watching a master at their craft. Thank you for your late nights, your relentless dedication, and for believing in my case when it mattered most. You have my eternal gratitude. Warmest regards

I got pulled over for 24 mph over ( 94 on a 70 ) on 12/31/2022 and I was very frustrated because it was my first speeding violation in my life. And I really didn't know what to do. Also I live in NJ so I can't go to the court on the court day and I need an attorney to help me out. I hired Mr.Jones and he reduced it to 9 over the limit and reckless driving to endanger was dismissed. Mr.Jones is the best attorney, especially traffic violations. If anyone needs an attorney for traffic violations, I can strongly recommend Mr.Jones. He is the best of the best. Also one of his staff members Amanda helped me out and she was so kind and professional.. I'm really thankful to Mr. Jones and his staff. you

Franklin Jones is actually the best attorney I have ever hired in Halifax County. Born for law school, I would have to say. With the serious accusations and actually being inditated by a grand jury, I felt life was over and depression sunk in. But after hiring Franklin Jones, I automatically felt better because he was compassionate and explained to me that it wouldn't end how I assumed due to his knowledge of law. I received a call and. " dismissed " concluded my case. Oh gosh was I relieved. If anyone needs a great attorney I would recommend Franklin Jones a thousand times. Thank you Franklin Jones.

I am very grateful for the help I received from Franklin Jones when I needed his services. He personally took my call after hours to advise me on my matter and called again the next day to see if I had any questions. After hiring Mr. Jones, he was very driven in accessing the records needed from State Police and continued to advise me on the particulars of my case. I was equally impressed with his staff, as an out of state client during the fluctuations of COVID, they kept me updated on any changes in my court appearances. Mr. Jones was able to ensure I received the very best outcome for my case which allowed me to keep my commercial license and clean driving records.

My husband received a speeding ticket on his way home from Florida. After finding out that the ticket could not be paid online and needed a court appearance, we hired Franklin Jones Jr . Mr. Jones was able to get this ticket reduced to improper equipment. Thank you and we highly recommend. Issue resolved and all court fees paid. 3 day turn around from hire date deserves a 5 star. Blessings to you and your staff.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
