Handling Criminal Law Matters of Bond Hearings, Violations of Probation or Community Control, Bench Warrants, Domestic Violence Protection Order Violations, Sealing and Expunging Criminal Records


As a criminal defense lawyer, Patricia J. Jones handles ALL matters related to criminal law or to a criminal case.  The firm can be retained to represent a client from the very beginnings of a criminal investigation or even before a client agrees to be interviewed by law enforcement officers.  If you consult with a criminal defense attorney before speaking with police officers, you can learn about what your rights are under the law before deciding whether or not to answer their questions.


Generally speaking, it is usually in a person’s best legal interests to consult with and be represented by an attorney as soon as possible so that the attorney can inform the person about their rights under the law and can begin exercising them as soon as possible.  Additionally, having a lawyer to represent you in the very beginning phases of a criminal investigation and case is important because the defense attorney may be able to present legal reasons to the prosecutor why the prosecutor should choose not to even file charges or to file less serious charges.  


Hiring a criminal defense attorney as soon as possible is also usually beneficial to a person who has been charged with a crime because the lawyer can get completely familiarized with the specific facts and circumstances of a person’s case.  Often times it is the defense attorney’s knowledge about the facts of the client’s case that can make the difference in how a bond hearing turns out, whether a bond is set at all, how much the bond is, and what the conditions of the bond are.  Attorney Patricia Jones can be hired to prepare a motion for bond and to represent a person accused of a crime at their bond hearing.  


While criminal defense lawyer Patricia J. Jones can be hired to represent a person when an investigation begins or when an arrest occurs, she also represents individuals whose cases have already been concluded by way of trial or a change plea and who may have issues with being on probation or community control.  She can be hired to defend a person against allegations of violating their community control or probation, and she also represents clients who seek to modify or change the conditions or terms of their community control or probation.


Criminal defense attorney Patricia J. Jones also has much experience in preparing and arguing motions to set aside bench warrants.  Her legal experience also includes other legal matters such as a person seeking to have their criminal record sealed or expunged or a person who faces allegations of violating the terms of a domestic violence order of protection or restraining order.  The firm can be hired to represent a person who has these kinds of legal situations too.



Helping With Driver’s License Problems and Driver’s License Reinstatements and Representation at Department of Motor Vehicle Hearings


Attorney Patricia Jones can be hired to help people try to resolve driver’s license problems such as having a suspended or revoked driver’s license or driving privilege.  Her goal is to help you get your driver’s license reinstated and to get you back on the road.  She can advise you about what the law and the department of motor vehicles requires and may be able to help you to resolve problems you may encounter in trying to get your driver’s license reinstated.  Ms. Jones has a great deal of experience in helping clients get their driving privileges or driver’s licenses reinstated for suspension and revocations that stem from a variety of reasons such as points suspensions, failure to pay child support, habitual traffic offender, driving under the influence (DUI), failure to pay traffic fines, judgments, no insurance, failure to appear at a court date and issuance of a warrant, or a drug charge.


The firm can also be hired to represent a person at an administrative hearing held by the department of motor vehicles, which in Florida is called the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (DHSMV), regarding their driver’s license or driving privilege.  Ms. Jones has represented many, many individuals at such hearings where the department of motor vehicles is seeking to suspend or revoke their driver’s license.
