Joshua A. Jones graduated from the University of Montevallo with a Bachelor in Music Education, cum laude. Seeking to contribute to positive change in education, he attended the University of New Hampshire School of Law (formerly Franklin Pierce Law Center) where he earned both a Juris Doctor and a Master of Education Law. At the time, U.S. News and World Reports ranked FPLC first in the nation for the study of intellectual property law. In addition to amassing a wealth of knowledge and experience regarding school law, Mr. Jones took full advantage of the intellectual property courses and seminars at FPLC, and he is well versed in the practice of trademarks and copyrights. While at FPLC, he served as a teaching assistant for the first year legal writing and research program and later for Administrative Process: Education & Government. He also served as a research assistant to Professor Sarah Redfield.
After five years representing parents and students in school matters and litigating mass tort, personal injury, insurance, employment, and business cases at Pensacola, Florida law firm, Aylstock, Witkin, Kreis & Overholtz, Mr. Jones was selected as the Downey Brand Fellow for Public Service and Leadership at the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law in Sacramento, California. While working at McGeorge, he worked in the Education Pipeline Initiative, running a mentor program between law students and children from grades 4-12, and he taught Street Law at Sacramento Charter High School. At McGeorge, Mr. Jones earned a Master of Laws in Government and Public Policy with an emphasis in education law, one of only seventeen lawyers in the country to hold the degree.
Mr. Jones handles a variety of cases, including student rights, such as special education, anti-bullying, and student discipline, business formations and management, non-profit formation and management, trademark and copyright services, and family law issues. However, he is equipped to handle all of your family law and business law needs. Mr. Jones has extraordinary litigation and negotiation skills, but he also employs proactive lawyering techniques to anticipate and solve problems, before they arise, through practical policy and contract development.
Mr. Jones is licensed to practice law in both Florida and California, and he works and lives in the community of families and businesses that he represents, Pensacola, Florida.
