Donna S. Jones, founder of DSJ & Associates, has spent nearly two decades helping attorneys navigate complex litigation by translating medical records into courtroom strategy. Her firm, based in Atlanta, provides legal nurse consulting, medical record review, and expert witness matching for plaintiff and defense attorneys, as well as insurance companies seeking merit reviews and standard-of-care clarity.
Jones grew up as the youngest of seven children on a farm in West Virginia, where her father worked in coal mines and her mother earned a degree while raising the family. These early lessons in grit and discipline shaped her approach to work. She earned a partial scholarship to attend college and received her nursing degree from Fairmont State University, later earning a second degree in Communication at Georgia State University. Over 45 years, she worked as a bedside and ICU nurse in Atlanta, sharpening her clinical instincts.
DSJ & Associates supports legal teams through medical record review and analysis, standard-of-care and merit assessments, chronologies, summaries, and litigation strategy support. The firm also provides vetted expert witness recommendations and access to nursing and ancillary healthcare specialists. Cases supported have ranged from routine injury matters to catastrophic injury, wrongful death, and homicide.
What sets DSJ apart is its rigorous vetting process for expert witnesses. Jones emphasizes that attorneys need more than just a name—they need the right person who holds up under scrutiny and communicates clearly. This intentional matching ensures credibility and alignment with the case facts.
Jones believes medical records tell stories that carry weight, and her work is principled in uncovering the truth. Whether representing a patient, family, provider, or institution, she aims to help attorneys see what is truly in the record, including what is missing. For more information, visit DSJ & Associates.
