Honest, Unflappable and Right

Ive worked with Jeff for a complicated custody circumstance on 2 occasions. Both times he has been honest, patient and right when it came to tending to my case. Jeff maintains rapport and his own dignity with other counsel even when other lawyers are negligent, incompetent and unethical. Jeff advises... properly on both procedure, policy and If you need a steadfast and honest attorney who knows Maryland law- and has compassion- Jeff is right for you.

Knowledgeable, Good Communication, Patient and Responsive

Like anyone else going through a divorce and child custody, it can be an extremely emotional and a most confusing time. My situation made it even more complicated as I left Maryland and located to a state on the west coast but needed an attorney in Maryland to handle my case due to the fact that the... case was opened in Maryland. I had left my abusive marriage and was navigating my emotions and the legal system while at the same time finding an attorney who could help. It was a daunting task but I will be forever grateful I came across Jeff and choose him to represent me. Jeff listened to the facts of my case and was empathic to what I expressed during the process of my divorce. Jeff got back to me, if not the same day, certainly in an acceptable time frame and answered any questions or concerns I had in my case. Even with the time difference between the states, Jeff was always available for me and any emails I sent he always answered back quickly and sufficiently. Although calls were few, any time I did call I felt seen and heard, and that my concerns where important to him. Jeff made sure I understood the legal system in simpler terms to make it easier for me to make the best decisions for me while going for sole custody of my child. Jeff helped me navigate and understand, the best one can, in the steps within the legal system that can be confusing and overwhelming. It has been 9 months since I won sole custody of my son, but kept Jeff as my attorney during this time for any last attempts by my ex-husband in any legal attempt to overturn the results, and I am grateful I did. Even after divorce, the few times within those months that I had to contact Jeff, he was fair in the fees he charged me. I never have once felt he dragged out the case but rather allowed me to keep him until I felt it was safe to move on. I have now registered the case in the state in which I reside so therefore have to end the professional relationship with Jeff as my divorce/child custody attorney. (Even knowing I could register my case, after the judgement, to my state in which I reside was a huge benefit for me that Jeff guided me through.) I can't express my gratitude for the assistance Jeff gave me these past few years. Along with the positive results in my case, he helped empower me to speak up and to feel valued and heard. Jeff has left a positive impact on me and my family during one of my most challenging times of my life. Thank you Jeff.

Phenomenal Attorney, Highly Recommend for Difficult Family Law Matters

After much research and several consultations to find the right attorney, I finally found ARN Family Law and Jeff Evans. Boy, I am so thankful I did. Jeff is by far the best attorney I have ever worked with. I came to Jeff with a very complicated case and urgent custody matters where I needed a v...ery specific type of Family Law attorney to help me ASAP. I needed an attorney not only with a supreme understanding of the law, but one who was very organized, professional and responsive. I needed someone with extensive litigation experience, with a sole practice of Family Law and who was not in it for the money. Jeff is this lawyer. His background and experience also speak to this. He was able to meet with me on short notice and process a very intricate history quickly and efficiently in order to provide the exact legal services I was looking for to get things done. I could tell right away he was not driven by dollars, he doesn't need to be, his integrity is apparent. He is extremely intelligent, impressively competent, and does not miss a beat. I was recently the defendant in a complex contempt hearing where Jeff was able to litigate under time constraints outlining very strategic key points in front of the judge. His ability to focus in this manner excelled and completely turned things around by undermining the very allegations made against me by the opposing party. I felt that I was in great hands the entire time with Jeff Evans representing me. He has kept me calm and focused during many difficult moments and I cannot thank him enough. I would not choose anyone besides Jeff as my attorney and I highly recommend him to anyone seeking help with the very difficult issues that unfortunately often arise in Family Law.

Excellent during litigation

Mr. Evans was one of a few attorneys that I had the pleasure to work with through Arn Family Law. While I met him only just prior to the first day of my two day final hearing on custody and relocation, he hit the ground running, using the information from the prepared case to provide a strong and ski...lled defense in court. He is a quick thinker who pays careful attention to small details, and because of this, he picked up on every key factor in my case during testimony and presented them in closing, all of which the judge reiterated as major tipping points in his ruling. Because of his expertise and that of the Arn Family Law team, my kids and I were granted permission to relocate and I retained primary custody. I highly recommend Mr. Evans and his team.
