About
It is my goal to reduce unecessary estate-related lawsuits with proactive estate planning and thoughtful estate administration. When a dispute arises nonetheless, I offer a non-lawsuit option for its resolution through the Collaborative Law method.I practice in "estates" law, which has 3 basic components: (1) PLANNING, i.e., writing documents (2) ADMINISTRATION, i.e., putting documents into action, and (3) DISPUTE RESOLUTION, i.e., fixing issues arising in the planning and administration phase.The best way to head-off a dispute is with a proper estate plan that is properly administered, but sometimes the water has gone under the bridge and you find yourself in a conflict nonetheless. I conducted estate law litigation (trusts, wills, powers of attorney) for over 5 years, handling several multi-million-dollar matters. Though litigation is the best choice in some cases, I realized that in most cases litigation is not the best choice because it too often needlessly sacrifices both (1) money, and (2) family relationships. The "sacrifice" is a byproduct of the nature lawsuits. This realization led me to become trained in Collaborative Law, a promising new dispute resolution method for resolving legal disputes outside of court but still achieving a legally binding resolution you can rely on. I promise to do everything in my power to aid my clients in avoiding unnecessary litigation. The law should be and must become more accessible to the average person. I am firmly committed to being a part of that change. I do not charge for initial 1/4 hour consultations if I am not ultimately retained. My fees are competitive, but they are also flexible given certain circumstances. I have been honored to represent some clients at reduced rates, payment plans, and contingency fees. Of course, my ability to charge less in some cases stems from charging a standard rate in most cases. I would be pleased to confidentially discuss your situation with you.

Jason was incredibly helpful and patient as we updated our decade-old will & trust and POAs. He answered all of our questions and guided us expertly through the process. Highly recommend!
Jason is unique. His extremely warm personal manner and style of guidance is something that we feel that anyone seeking legal services in estate planning would seek and appreciate. He truly embraces a collaberative approach and takes the time to navigate sensitive issues. We could not be more pleased with our outcome and highly recommend Jason for all estate planning and related legal needs.
Jason was able to handle our estate needs in a professional and efficient manner.His fees were reasonable and he was very knowledgeable and helpful.
Jason helped me put together all of my estate documents with ease. The details of all of these documents can be quite confusing, but he guided me along and helped me understand what was important and how to make the best decisions. If you want a lawyer who really cares about helping people and minimizing conflict for your estate, Jason is a great choice.
My spouse and I just did our wills with Jason Jones, and t could not have been easier. We are totally satisfied with the wills and the experience. Great guy!
My husband and I put off creating a Will and POA because we were intimidated by the process; however, after the birth of our first child and another one on the way, we knew we couldn't afford to procrastinate our estate planning any longer. Jason guided us through every step of the process, and we never doubted his expertise and attention to detail. We highly recommend him and plan to consult him for any estate planning needs in the future!
I was very hesitant and almost felt guilty for hiring an attorney when trying to work through some conflict after the passing of my grandfather. Jason was definitely the right choice! We were glad to have his help which resulting in us keeping a positive relationship with family members as well as resolving our disputes in a smooth way. If your NOT looking for a fight and just looking for guidance and resolution he is the attorney for you!
Jason is tops. When my wife and I had our first child, we knew it was time to get a living will and power of attorney taken care off. Jason used great care, empathy, skill, and patience as he guided us through the process. We could not have been more satisfied with the value and peace of mind that he provided us. I would not hesitate to give him our highest recommendation.
I hired Mr Jones after a terrible, very expensive and useless experience with a previous lawyer. He was attentive, responsive, efficient, and resolved my biggest problem in 3 weeks while the previous lawyer did not in 3 months. He was prompt to answer my calls or emails, he was precise in his answers and did not charge me an arm and a leg. He showed genuine intent in quickly settle matters and not in dragging my problems along to inflate his fee, and he delivered excellent results. I would recommend hiring him in a heartbeat.
What Mr. Jones brings to the table is exceptional. The combination of his knowledge and expertise, his superlative professionalism, and his pleasant and patient demeanour is rare indeed. Jason has advised on our family trusts for several years. Over the past four years, Jason has tirelessly reviewed and inventoried over twenty years of financials and four different trusts for us, while keeping us updated on each stage of the work. While working to resolve the tax controversy, Mr. Jones has collaborated with attorneys in four different states to ensure the fastest possible resolution of our legal issues. Jason has helped us extensively to resolve our tax problem, and to this end, he has made referrals to accountants and collaborated with our tax professionals, making sure everyone had much-needed information. Jason has consistently provided us with a "bird's eye view “of all matters he has worked on for us. He has thoroughly explained the circumstances of our trust issue, and its past, present and future implications. Jason has a particular gift in that he can take complicated legal matters and distil them down in a way that is at once succinct and all-encompassing. He has been able to consistently explain our multifaceted legal issues to us and make them clear and easy to understand. I especially wish to comment on Jason's availability. Jason has never been one of those lawyers that you can never reach on the phone. My wife and I have been immeasurably grateful for Jason's compassionate listening ear when at times we have felt compelled to discuss the effects of one crisis or another on both our case and on our wellbeing. He has been there for us on a level that was over and above the call of duty. After our long professional association, we are glad to call Jason a friend as well as our lawyer.
