About Katrina M.
Katrina M. Jones studied at Saint Louis University before establishing her legal career in New York. Her time at Saint Louis University provided the academic foundation that she carried into practice. She has maintained a steady presence in the New York legal community since completing her studies.
She is admitted to practice in New York and has practiced in the state for several years. Her work has involved the routine tasks of counsel: advising clients, preparing legal documents, and managing casework. Those responsibilities have required attention to legal detail and the ability to explain complex issues in straightforward terms.
Jones joined Gelman & Jones, LLP and holds an attorney position at the firm's New York office. In that role she has taken on a range of matters handled by the firm. Her daily practice includes client meetings, legal research, drafting agreements and motions, and coordinating with colleagues on multi-stage matters. She is known among peers for steady, methodical work rather than theatrical courtroom appearances.
Over the course of her career she has balanced written advocacy with client-facing tasks. She prepares legal memoranda and negotiates on behalf of clients, and she has participated in settlement discussions when those have been appropriate. Her written work aims to present legal arguments clearly and concisely. She also places emphasis on practical problem solving so clients understand options and potential outcomes.
Outside the office she remains engaged in ongoing professional development. She follows changes in New York law and attends seminars to keep current on procedural shifts and substantive updates. That approach helps her apply recent rulings or regulatory changes to client matters in real time. Her current practice centers on serving clients from Gelman & Jones, LLP's New York office.
