This woman takes cate of business

She came in. Looked at me.and said,you didnt do this Mr.Jackson. ill be right back. She came back with a dismissal paper. I looked up at her in awe. She said to me,they knew you didnt do this,they just wanted you for your background. I stayed in jail for weeks with no bail. This woman comes in and ge...ts me bail. A low bail.and on my first court date gets the case dismissed.

2nd Chance

Attorney Sadiyah Evangelista helped me get a second chance after I did something stupid that I sincerely regretted. She was professional, caring, but firm. I appreciate all she did for me, and all she continues to do in the community. If you are looking for an attorney to represent you, then look n...o further Sadiyah Evangelista is the one for you!

Great lawyer

I have used this lawyer twice. Dismissals both times on similar cases. The first was a felony charge and the other a misdemeanor. Lets just say Sadiyah proved muly innocents and pulled my name an reputation out of the dirt. Much thanks to Sadiyah. Keep up the good honest work.

Outstanding Attorney

I have never had an encounter with the law until I was wrongly accused of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon against a Family Member. No one seemed to listen or believe me. I felt so devastated - until I spoke to Attorney Evangelista. She recorded the FACTS, then skillfully and professionally pr...esented to the prosecutor. She is very intuitive and knowledgeable to your legal needs, calmly communicates a strategic way forward. Praise God, for Attorney Evangelista!! She built a rapport with me, followed up on my numerous requests and kept me and my family informed throughout the entire process. In recognition of Attorney Evangelista preparation, persistence, and personality, the false claims were “No Billed!” Attorney Evangelista acted quickly and made this process seamless. I can never thank her enough for always taking my hundreds of calls a day, keeping me grounded, working quickly and nerve giving up. Her motto is she a warrior lawyer, and we won the battle in four months!!!!! I am proud to have her as my attorney. I was truly afraid to lose my liberty, my son and my future career. As the saying goes, "You never know when you will need an attorney" , but if you do, I would highly recommend Attorney Evangelista to ANYONE who is involved in a criminal matter.

Thank God for Sadiyah!

Sadiyah was GREAT, this was my first time being in trouble and it was a serious charge an SOB case. She was there for me, she made me feel comfortable that she knew what she was doing and that this case would be dismissed. I had to go back and forth from Dallas to Houston for 4 months but at the end ...of the day my case got dismissed like she said. I'm so grateful to have a person like sadiyah in my life I don't know what I would have done without her. Thank you so much sadiyah! Keep up the good work
