Frank Pope

Frank Pope grew up in a rural community in Johnston County, North Carolina. At an early age, he had already decided that he wanted to be a lawyer. He began working part-time with law firms while he was in undergraduate school and continued to work with law firms while completing his legal education at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
While in law school he also participated in the clinic program which allowed law students to practice law for real claimants in Orange County courts under the supervision of an instructor attorney. Upon completion of law school, Frank moved to Jacksonville, North Carolina where he worked at the law office of Jeffrey Miller and was involved in a multi-disciplined litigation practice in both Federal and State court. Frank has been of counsel with Greg Jones Law for many years and a friend of Greg’s for many more.
