Great lawyer

He helped me sealed a case so I can be able to apply for jobs an I really appreciated him for fixing my character with the system.

I recommend Collin Evans!

Collin Evans is the best lawyer we could ever imagine. His goal is Dismissal for all cases and due to his vast knowledge of the law and wide experience he has achieved this for the cases he has worked on for my family. He makes himself available for all the questions and what-ifs during the legal pro...cess. He eliminates as many appearances in court as possible. He kept us informed during the case. He was diligent about expungement also.

Exceptional Legal Service for Sealing Juvenile Records

I recently hired Collin Evans to file an Application to Seal Juvenile Records, and I couldn’t be more impressed with his work. From the start, Collin treated my case with the utmost respect and diligence. He was always available to answer my questions and kept me informed every step of the way. Co...llin’s thorough approach and attention to detail were evident throughout the process. He expertly navigated the complexities of my case, ensuring that everything was handled professionally and efficiently. His ability to communicate clearly and keep me updated made a stressful situation much more manageable. What stood out the most was Collin’s genuine care and dedication. He made me feel like I was his top priority and worked tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome. His extensive knowledge of the law and his strategic approach were crucial in getting my records sealed. I highly recommend Collin Evans for any legal matters, especially those involving juvenile records in Fort Bend County. His professionalism, expertise, and compassionate approach make him an outstanding attorney. Thank you, Collin, for your exceptional service!

Did everything he said he was going to do and more.

Collin got my case dismissed and I didn't even have to show up for my court date. His office took my call, was able to explain to me what I was facing and handled my case professionally. I called him after the court moved my date up by two weeks, and Collin was able to work with me on very short no...tice. He didn't over-promise, but definitely over-delivered. Obviously I don't know all the nuts and bolts, but Collin had previously worked with the judge in my case and that seemed to go along way in getting the best result possible with minimal effort on my part. He called me every step of the way to keep me informed of my progress. I highly recommend him for any criminal legal matter, especially those relating to driver's license issues. I could not have asked for a better outcome.

I am glad I was able to over-deliver on your expectations. Congratulations again on the dismissal!

Amicable Criminal Lawyer

Collin Evans and his associates at his law firm are exceptional, he handled my criminal case that took place 20 + years ago ,helping me receive a non disclosure/ sealed record, that happened in Texas, but I live in another state now, and I was able to do everything from where I currently live. Mr. E...vens is very personable, conveying, understanding, and amicable. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing a criminal lawyer in the Harris county Texas area. Don’t hesitate to call him for a prompt consultation.

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.
