Eric A. Jones is the founder and managing attorney of Jones Law Group, LLC, a Columbus, Ohio law firm focused on professional license defense, healthcare law, and Social Security Disability representation.
Mr. Jones founded Jones Law Group in 2007 and has spent nearly two decades representing physicians, nurses, dentists, therapists, and other licensed professionals in matters that can directly affect their careers, reputations, and ability to practice.
His professional-license practice includes representation in licensing board investigations, disciplinary proceedings, consent agreement negotiations, administrative hearings, license applications, reinstatement matters, credentialing disputes, National Practitioner Data Bank issues, hospital privilege matters, and other regulatory and employment-related concerns.
Mr. Jones understands that a professional licensing case rarely affects only the license itself. For physicians and other healthcare professionals, disciplinary action may also affect employment, hospital privileges, insurance participation, credentialing, board certification, other state licenses, and future career opportunities. His approach is therefore focused not only on resolving the immediate licensing matter, but also on protecting the client’s broader professional career.
Before founding Jones Law Group, Mr. Jones developed extensive experience in healthcare administration, regulation, managed care, provider contracting, credentialing, medical staff relations, and healthcare operations. That background provides him with a practical understanding of the healthcare system that extends beyond traditional legal representation.
He draws on that experience when representing healthcare professionals before the State Medical Board of Ohio, Ohio Board of Nursing, Ohio State Dental Board, and other Ohio professional licensing agencies.
Jones Law Group also represents individuals seeking Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits.
Mr. Jones has extensive experience handling Social Security Disability claims at virtually every stage of the process, including initial claims, reconsideration, Administrative Law Judge hearings, and Appeals Council review.
He understands that disability cases often depend upon more than simply establishing a diagnosis. Successful claims require a clear presentation of the medical evidence and an explanation of how a claimant’s physical or mental limitations affect the ability to sustain employment.
Mr. Jones believes clients facing serious professional or financial consequences should have direct access to the attorney responsible for their case.
Professional-license clients work directly with Mr. Jones on strategy, negotiations, hearings, and important decisions. Rather than operating through layers of attorneys and staff, Jones Law Group emphasizes personalized representation and accessibility.
Clients facing an investigation or disciplinary proceeding are often dealing with one of the most stressful events of their careers. Mr. Jones works closely with each client to understand the allegations, identify the potential consequences, and develop a strategy tailored to that client’s individual circumstances.
For a physician, nurse, dentist, or other licensed professional, a professional license may represent decades of education, training, sacrifice, and professional achievement.
Mr. Jones’s goal is straightforward: protect the license, protect the career, and protect the client’s ability to move forward.
Top 10 Reasons Ohio Physicians Are Investigated by the State Medical Board of Ohio
A call, letter, subpoena, or interview request from a State Medical Board of Ohio (Board) investigator can place a physician’s license, reputation, employment, hospital privileges, and livelihood at risk.
