A formidable advocate who delivered a critical business victory

Our company faced a high-stakes, multi-million dollar commercial dispute that threatened our operations. The opposing party was aggressive, and the complexity of the litigation was daunting. We were referred to Jamie Jones at Friday Eldredge & Clark, and it was the best decision we could have made. From our first meeting, Jamie’s 22 years of experience were evident. She didn't just understand the legal intricacies; her background in psychology provided a unique insight into the motivations of the other side and the perspectives of potential jurors. She meticulously prepared our case for a bench trial, leaving no detail unexamined. Her recognition in Bet-the-Company and Commercial Litigation is clearly well-earned. Throughout the process, Jamie was a steady, strategic partner—communicating clearly, managing our expectations, and advocating for us with unwavering professionalism and tenacity. The positive outcome she secured was a complete vindication of our position and exceeded our most optimistic hopes. For any serious litigation matter in Little Rock, especially one where the stakes are existential, Jamie H. Jones is the attorney you want in your corner.
