Ms. Mitchell is the best lawyer around town

Evelyn Mitchell is all that and a bag of chips. She listens and implements your plan. She understands your point of view so she will improvise in court if needed (do what it takes). I cannot say enough positive aspects and compliments about Ms. Mitchell. Only reason Ms. Mitchell did not finish my ca...se was because she's due/pregnancy. I really appreciate your work, time and effort. Thank you... p.s. she's very affordable guys

Best of the best

Just when I thought I was in a whole line of trouble Ms Evelyn Mitchell's gave me hope she was able to fully dismiss 2 felony charges on my case and 1 of them carry a mandatory minimum sentence of 2 years in prison, she really cares about her clients and is very knowledgeable about the laws and for t...hat I consider her more than an Attorney to me, shes a friend of mines and I recommend her to all my friends and family if they ever need an Attorney go with her I can't thank her enough, go with her she's the best out there !!!

Front end Manager at Safeway878

She was so patient with me even when I wanted to just give up she encouraged me and worked with me and stood up for me with the prosecutor to see my side and be Lenient and not make me feel ashamed. I highly recommend her for any and everyone.

Look no Further!

This woman was able to do what several family lawyers were unable to do. She helped me and my family out of a very dark place with her incredible professionalism and instinct. If you want an attorney who is always on time, honest, reliable, transparent, and most of all lovely to be around you have fo...und it with Evelyn Mitchell. She helped our family with a divorce case, but I would recommend her in a heartbeat if any family/ or friends needed her for other areas of her practice as well. I can not say enough good things! This case and this situation was very traumatic to our lives but we have been living in peace since she accomplished my parents divorce! Thank you a million :)

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
