Client Review:
I strongly recommend that you DO NOT use this attorney. I signed up with the Evins, Friend & Sklare firm for a personal injury case and I received egregious mishandling of my case - bordering on malpractice.
The communication was virtually non-existent. After being in an auto accident, I called the office approximately a dozen times over the next year to make sure that the case was moving forward, but I rarely received a call back, and never from an attorney. Since I didn't have any experience in similar situations, I really didn't know what to do. I received no guidance or advice on the proper documentation of injury or handling of my case. Because of this mishandling, I did not receive fair compensation. The office staff is consistently rude and simply does not return calls.
Finally, after sending a letter threatening a malpractice suit against the firm, I magically got a call the next day and a little bit of attention, albeit with an everpresent petulant attitude. I ended up calling other law firms to see if they would take over my case, but they declined, since it was so far along.
I don't know if they are overbooked or are simply disorganized and lousy, but I would STRONGLY recommend NOT using Evins or his firm. Call around. Speak to several lawyers and make sure you feel comfortable with the entire firm before signing on. Good luck.

baja022000's Comment: Well, I have Used The Law Offices of Evins & Sklare, Ltd. on TWO different occasions and I DO NOT have ONE complaint. Every time I call the staff is courteous and I feel I get the help needed in a time when I need the most help. I felt this law firm was extremely help full to me. The staff took the time to listen and answered my questions made the process easier. I have recommended friends and relatives and they have also been pleased. I WOULD RECOMMEND THE LAW OFFICES OF EVINS & SKLARE, LTD.
