Attorney Amos Jones, current Co-convener, has practiced law in Washington, D.C., since 2007 and for seven of those years was a full-time professor of law teaching Contracts, Ethics, and History of the Black American Lawyer.

His private practice serves employees who have been wronged in the workplace.

Marquis Lifetime Achievement Award from the publishers of Who's Who in America for his noteworthy accomplishments in the legal profession.
