Melanie Newkome Jones

Jul 2023

Melanie guided us through one of the most challenging times in our lives during an Emergency Custody case. Her experience and wisdom of the law combine with her compassion and empathy helped us feel secure when we needed it the most as we followed the path she laid out for us. She helped us get the results we wanted when we needed it and would recommend her for any matters of the family.

Melanie was very knowledgeable, patient, professional, and caring. She explained every step of the process. Her great reputation was consistent with our experience and we really appreciated her expertise and care with a difficult situation.

Where does one begin? I will never be able to thank this attorney enough for representing me in the nastiest-protracted-heavily-litigated- less-than-amicable-custody case in probably the history of the court. Ms. Jones truly is a highly educated, knowledgeable litigator, and remarkable mediator. Besides all of her knowledge and education, this attorney has more integrity, class, and heart than any of the other attorneys combined that I encountered on this 11 year journey. She didn't take on this case because of anything I could or could not do for her, she didn't take my case because of how much money I did or did not possess - I believe she represented my case, when no one else would even talk to me, because she cared about my daughter. She stopped from her very busy day, and gave me the time of day, to sit down and tell her our story. She listened. She believed me. (no matter how crazy the twists and turns were) She gave me my life back and she gave my daughter a future full of peace, stability, and love. She gave my daughter the opportunity to have a life free of her parents' animosity. Ms. Jones looked at the evidence, she used the law and her concerned, warrior spirit took over! So many times, she could have just gave up, quit, and walked away because this case was so much work (and this is putting it lightly.) Thank you Ms. Jones for standing by my side through this really bad time in our lives. Thank you Ms. Jones for helping me hold my head up. Thank you Ms. Jones for being professional. Thank you Ms.Jones for being great at what you do. Thank you Ms. Jones for never once making me feel bad for our ugly case. Thank you for my daughter! You know who I am and I sincerely hope you know that I will never forget all you've done for us. One last thing - thank you for restoring my faith in the legal system and for giving us vindication. Most of all, thank you for your integrity and for fighting for my daughter's "BEST INTEREST."
