Excellent for Real Estate Closing Process

We used Don for both our buying and selling process. Buying process went smoothly. For the selling process, we had issues with the buyer's attorney and Don went above and beyond to dispute invalid charges on the closing statement. We didn't expect him to be so responsive but he was very friendly and ...knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone looking for real estate closing attorney for buying or selling side.

Review Don T. Evans, Esq.

*Extremely knowledgeable, approachable, professional. Mr. Evans has a firm grasp on legal concepts, case law, and statutes. He was always available to discuss our case and to ensure that we understood matters. Importantly, Mr. Evan is the consummate professional providing us with excellent advice an...d representation within the highest ethical standards.

Attorney Competency

Mr Evan's legal assistance in a highly complicated matter which if it had not been handled in a highly professional and knowledgeable manner, would have resulted in very serious financial consequences to our organization. However, his diligence, expertise and ongoing support resulted in the matter ...being resolved completely in our best interests without the need for formal court review.
