Helped a rookie landlord

Evans Law helped guide me through a difficult issue with a tenant. This was my first experience using a private lawyer, but they took their time to explain the process every step of the way. The office was easy to contact initially & with follow up communication. Pricing was fair. Mr. Evans' asse...ssment of the problem was pragmatic & realistic. There was no pressure from them at any point. Great practice all around!

Incompentent and negligent law firm. Buyer beware!

This is the most incompetent law firm I have ever encountered. There negligence and incompetence on a very simple real estate transaction was beyond belief. They made careless and negligent mistakes that were pointed out to them initially, do not pay attention to any detail and do not follow throug...h on correcting the mistakes they make. They tought themselves as experts in agricultural property and this is so far from the truth. I wish I had never hired them and I would never recommend their services to anyone, unless you want your job done wrong.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
