About
Gary Jones is a shareholder in the Jackson office of the firm and has served as Chair of the Workers’ Compensation practice group since 2007. He has been involved in the Workers’ Compensation practice for over 30 years and has served as a mediator in such cases for over a decade.
When asked about the practice of law, Gary says, ”Wise counsel is what you get with Daniel Coker attorneys. Our job is to tell you what you need to hear, not necessarily what you want to hear. Dogmatism for the sake of dogmatism is not productive. Instead, we seek effective, practical solutions to your litigation needs.“
