Best lawyer in Dallas

I honestly don't even know where to start. My divorce case was a complete nightmare. There is no worse feeling as a parent, than to know your child's best interest lays in the hands of someone else. It was terrifying. At the end of my case, I can honestly say Ms. Evans was the best lawyer I could hav...e ever asked for. She fought hard for my daughter. I genuinely felt like she was fighting for her well being, just as she would want for her own. She kept her safe. Ms. Evans knows her stuff and is on top of it. She is prepared and can rebuttal facts! She is not only good at what she does, but she cares for her clients. She is very affordable and will work with her clients. Bianka is just as amazing. She is always polite and listens to your concerns. All around, I couldn't be more satisfied and will definitely use them again, when I am ready for my adoption case. If you find yourself looking for the best, definitely hire Ms. Evans. I promise you wont be disappointed. She is worth every penny! Ms. Evans won my divorce case, and also handled my tpr case and won it as well. My daughters and myself are now safe, due to her diligence, hard work, outstanding knowledge of family law, and passion for what she does. I give her a 100%

Very trustworthy and dependable attorney

Ms. Evans has handled an adoption case for me last year that ended up turning into a battle against two other attorneys and she handled our case very well. Our adoption was finalized within 6 months. I have just hired her again in a custody battle and contempt case and I am confident she will do a gr...eat job!

Posted by Melanie | July 18, 2012 | Adoption

EXCELLENT!!!!! Highly recommended!!!

This attorney was chosen as the Adoption Inspector for my daughter's step-parent adoption. She was extremely easy to work with and very informative on the procedures throughout the adoption. She even talked to my daughter to explain what would happen at the adoption hearing to help her make the deci...sion as to whether or not my daughter would attend the hearing. Her legal secretary (forgive me if this is not her title) that answers the phone was also very informative and answered the many, many questions I had regarding the hearing and the paperwork that was necessary to complete the adoption. If I had to do it all over again, I would have chosen Ms. Evans as MY attorney as she was more informative than my actual attorney. They return all calls quickly and were a pleasure to work with. I have already recommended her to a friend and will continue to do so.

"Few lawyers have the heart and dedication to compare to Jana Evans. She is a stellar advocate for her clients, she is always professional, diligent, and diplomatic. What I admire most about Jana is that she is not afraid to swim against the tide of the establishment and appeal a case. Not only in juvenile law, but in every practice area, you can depend on a great attorney with Jana."
