Finding Hope, Not Just Help: Celebrating Christopher W. Jones, Michigan Super Lawyers Honoree

When money worries start to take over—whether it’s mounting debt, foreclosure notices, or the fear of starting over—it’s easy to feel stuck and alone. The truth is, you deserve someone in your corner who not only knows the law inside and out, but who also cares about getting you back on solid ground.

That’s why we’re thrilled to celebrate Christopher W. Jones, Managing Attorney at Acclaim Legal Services. His recent recognition by Super Lawyers is much more than an award on paper. It’s a reflection of the compassion, steady guidance, and skill he’s brought to Michigan families for nearly two decades.
 

A Career Marked by Consistent Recognition

Christopher’s professional journey tells a clear story of dedication and results:

• Rising Stars (2013, 2014, 2015)
• Super Lawyers (2021, 2022, 2025)

Few attorneys earn accolades across so many years and stages of their careers. For clients, that means you’re not only working with someone who started strong—you’re working with someone who has stayed at the top through hard work, integrity, and a genuine commitment to people.

What It Really Means to Be a Super Lawyer (and a Rising Star)

“Super Lawyer” isn’t a title you can buy. It’s earned through a careful, independent process designed to spotlight attorneys who consistently stand out in their field.

Here’s what goes into it:

• Peer Nomination – Other lawyers put forward names of professionals they’ve personally seen in action.
• Independent Research – Candidates are scored on 12 indicators of achievement, including case results, honors, certifications, community service, and leadership.
• Peer Evaluation – The highest scorers are reviewed by a respected “Blue Ribbon Panel.”
• Final Selection – Only the top 5% of attorneys make the Super Lawyers list. For the Rising Stars category, just 2.5% of attorneys under 40 or with fewer than 10 years in practice are chosen.

Christopher’s place on both lists shows just how respected he is—not only for his bankruptcy law knowledge, but for the steady way he guides people through some of life’s hardest moments.

The Journey Behind the Recognition

Before the awards, Christopher built a strong foundation:

• Michigan State University – B.A. in Business Administration (Pre-Law), cum laude with honors
• Ave Maria School of Law – J.D. (2004), graduating in the top 10 of his class and serving on the Law Review
• Licensed in Michigan since 2005

Since then, he’s focused exclusively on consumer bankruptcy, helping people protect their homes, stop creditor calls, and find peace of mind. Along the way, he’s:

• Earned certification as a Consumer Bankruptcy Specialist (American Board of Certification)
• Served on court committees and shared his insights at professional events
• Stayed active in organizations like the American Bankruptcy Institute and the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys

This isn’t just a career—it’s a calling to help people rebuild their lives.

Why This Recognition Matters for You

When you’re deciding whether to file for bankruptcy or pursue another form of debt relief, it’s hard to know who to trust. Awards like Super Lawyers are a reassuring sign: they show that an attorney’s peers, judges, and the broader legal community see them as ethical, effective, and truly dedicated to their clients.

For Christopher Jones, these honors echo what his clients already know: he treats every case with respect and every client with compassion.
