JoAnn Evenson

JoAnn took the time to explain every step that would happen in my divorce proceedings and continued to explain as the divorce proceedings went forward. She worked very hard to get things done as quickly as possible despite the lawyer my ex husband hired, who seemed to never have things completed on t...ime. Even my ex commented how effecient my lawyer was. JoAnn has a very caring yet strong personality that is needed to protect her client's legal rights. I would highly recommend JoAnn.

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.
