About
I have been practicing family law for over 14 years. I have volunteered my time at Divorce Care 4 Kids (Christian based peer counseling for children) and domestic violence shelters along with acting as a judge pro tem and over seeing family law cases. I also started a company called ProperComm that edits emails and text messages between high conflict parents. Go to www.propercomm.com for more informatoin. I am happily married to former Judge Steve Sheldon. On thing that sets me apart from many divorce lawyers is that I am divorced with children. I share custody. I understand how difficult the divorce and the process of divorce can be for people. I have been a speaker for AFCC and the Arizona State Bar Association.

I appreciated Launi's straightforward approach as a PC. She is honest and fair and I highly recommend her if you have high conflict and with your ex and you want the best interest of your child to be served.
I recently had the pleasure of going against Ms. Sheldon in court and although my side won, she put up one heck of a fight. She was very emotionally involved with her client and even worked pro-bono on her behalf. Would strongly recommend her to anyone that would do anything to try to win their case as there are no boundaries for this women and nothing she will not do or say for her clients.
It is my sincere priveledge to have the opportunity to be represented by Ms. Launi Jones-Sheldon. Before I met Ms. Jones-Sheldon; I had experienced months of trauma and transition. Sooner than I had finished reading the first sentence, within the first Document written by Ms. Jones-Sheldon on my behalf; I was stopped by tears of relief, and of joy. For the first time within this life event, I felt hope. Hope that there is someone to stand with me, and for me, and further; that this someone is not allowing past Injustices against me to continue any longer. I am so thankful to have been led to this extremely Gifted Professional. I rejoice for anyone else fortunate enough have this peace of mind because of Ms. Launi Jones-Sheldon. That you do not have to stay in, or return to past circumstances; but that that you too, can move forward under her safe guidance.
I don't know how I would have managed to get through my divorce without Launi's support. Not only did she do an amazing job with all the paperwork, she emotionally supported me in a way I'd never expect an attorney to do. She knows divorce law WELL, and made sure I was well taken care of. That was the most tragic year of my life; but her support made it bearable. I recommend her to ALL my friends who face the devastation of divorce. She's incredible!
Launi was referred to me by a friend and I couldn't be happier with the work she is doing on my case. Her personal and professional experience with family law makes her an asset. I am so grateful she is on my team.
My divorce proceedings were rather complex. My ex husband developed a gambling problem that resulted in his wasting over half of the marital asset. Among many of Launi's areas of expertise includes accounting forensics, which is exactly what I needed. We ultimately went to trial, and our hard work and attention to detail led to a positive outcome. Our proof sources were impeccable, and she also spent a considerable amount to effort prepping me to be effective on the stand. Through the process, I learned that Launi had a very good reputation among her peers and among the Maricopa County Judges. She is well experienced, ethical, and most importantly a nice normal person. An important point, however, is that your attorney can only be as helpful as the client is to the attorney. Being organized yourself and helping your attorney help you is the best advice I can give (and will save you $$ in the end).
Launi handled my divorce and custody case and saved me almost countless $$ and headaches and increased time with my daughter. She helped me gain joint custody. And she worded the agreement in such a way that my ex-wife cannot move our daughter to a different school system - which she is now trying to do - and cannot without my consent - or a court order in which I would have Launi represent me - meaning I will win. Thank you, Launi - I cannot be more grateful for your help.
I went to Launi by recommendation. I had to fire the first lawyer because it felt like she was working for my ex, not me! Within the first 20 minutes of having my file, she found $4o, ooo.00 the previous lawyer missed. The previous lawyer had the file for 9 months! Launi fought for me as if I was related to her! SHE WON MY CASE! We were awarded everything we asked for! Do yourself a favor and beg her to take your case! She's worth every penny! If I were rich, I would have tipped her the amount I was awarded! I truly believe she was a gift from God!
Terrible law firm. The lawyer I used made frequent mistakes through her staff including: incorrect information communicated in email, needing frequent time line reminders, not remembering important case details, not paying court fees the lawyer was instructed to pay (thus delaying the process), omitting important details in the divorce settlement relating to property settlement allocation and who would retain possession of individual accounts (this resulted in additional paper work filing with financial institutions and unnecessary closing of accounts), alarming and stressing the client due to incorrectly remembering details of the case. These failures resulted in unnecessary delays, created anxiety, and increased fees charged to the client.
