Christian & Small is pleased to announce that Associate Irving W. Jones Jr. has been selected to be a member of the Birmingham Bar Association’s 2018 class of the Future Leaders Forum.
The BBA Future Leaders Forum aims to cultivate leaders from among a group of motivated attorneys who have been in practice for three to eight years. The annual program begins in July and runs through December. Participants attend monthly sessions focused on experiencing, learning about, and maximizing leadership skills and opportunities in the legal profession and in the community in general.
Jones focuses his practice on environmental toxic tort and catastrophic injury matters. Prior to entering private practice, he worked for the U.S. National Security Agency (“NSA”) as a counterintelligence investigator, clerked for the civil and criminal division of the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Western District, in Memphis, Tenn., and clerked for the U.S. Department of Justice’s Office of Enforcement Operations in Washington D.C.
Jones joined Christian & Small in 2015 and earned his Juris Doctor from the University of Mississippi School of Law in 2014. He is a member of both the Alabama State Bar and the Mississippi Bar, the Alabama Defense Lawyers Association (ADLA), and the Defense Research Institute (DRI), where he serves as the Webpage Chair for the Toxic Torts and Environmental Law Committee. He has been recognized by the Birmingham Times as one of its 2018 “Birmingham Lawyers on the Rise,” and by the Birmingham Business Journal as one of its 2017 “Rising Stars of Law.”
