About Tracy
Tracy Jones built a legal career from courtroom work to running her own practice. She earned her J.D. from Northern Illinois University in 1998 after completing a master’s degree in psychology at Western Illinois University in 1994 and a bachelor’s degree in pre-law and political science at Lawrence University in 1992. Those academic steps shaped a lawyer comfortable with both legal analysis and human dynamics.
Her career began in public prosecution. In 2000 she served as an assistant state’s lawyer and handled cases that required quick assessment and steady courtroom presence. Later she moved into defense work. Records show she worked as a public defender in 2008, a role that broadened her exposure to client advocacy and trial practice.
In 2011 she founded Jones Law Office, LLC. She lists ownership and family law practice under that firm name from the same year. At the firm she took on the responsibilities of managing day-to-day operations while also representing clients. Her experience spans adversarial courtroom matters and more cooperative dispute resolution settings.
Jones is licensed in both Illinois and Colorado. She has been a member of the Illinois State Bar since 1998. In Colorado she holds credentials that reflect interest in settlement processes. She is a Colorado Collaborative Divorce Professional and is certified as a court mediator by the State of Colorado. Those certifications indicate she works in both negotiated and court-related family law procedures.
Her background crosses several roles—prosecutor, public defender, and private firm owner. That range informs how she approaches case intake, client counseling, and courtroom strategy. She handles family law matters that may require litigation as well as those better suited to collaborative divorce processes or mediation.
Colleagues and clients see a practitioner who has moved through different sides of the justice system and now applies that perspective within her own firm. She continues to hold active bar membership in Illinois and maintains professional credentials in Colorado. Her practice at Jones Law Office, LLC handles family law matters, including collaborative divorce and court mediation services.
