Any legal issue can cause harm to an individual’s finances, reputation and future. If you are facing a legal issue, seek out the legal guidance and representation you need from a dedicated lawyer who will always work hard for you. I’m Robert A. Jones, an Essex County trial attorney. For more than 35 years, I have been helping people who have been injured due to the negligence of others. I also represent people who have lost family members in a fatal accident. In addition to my personal injury practice, I represent individuals in a variety of other areas, including business litigation, medical and legal malpractice cases, nursing home abuse and neglect cases, and employment discrimination and sexual harassment cases. As a small firm, I handle all of my cases personally. Since I do not have a large volume practice, I provide personal attention to each client and to each case. All phone calls from clients are usually returned the same day and all questions are answered thoroughly. In addition, I have a strong, experienced support staff that provides all of my clients with the personal attention they deserve. You can rest assured that someone in this office will always be available to you when you need us.
