Excellent Attorney

I had the honor of working with Sadiyah Evangelista as my attorney in a difficult and emotional legal battle involving my son. Sadiyah is not just a lawyer; she is a compassionate and spiritual person who brought a unique depth to her work. She went above and beyond her duties, fighting the system wi...th unwavering dedication and heart. Her approach wasn’t just legal—she provided emotional and spiritual support throughout the entire process, making a challenging situation more bearable. She understood the importance of my child’s well-being and fought tirelessly to ensure justice was served. I could always count on her to listen, to act, and to push for what was right. If you are looking for an attorney who will fight for your child and stand by you every step of the way, I highly recommend Sadiyah Evangelista. She is more than just a lawyer—she is a warrior for families and children, willing to go the extra mile in court and in life.

Case Dismissed

I’m so happy that i was able to hire sadiyah to represent me! She was there for me at every court date and was able to keep me informed and made sure i was fully aware of what was going on and what was going to happen. After about 4 court dates she was able to get it fully dismissed, they even tried ...to give me probation but i needed to keep my record clean to keep my job. She knew how much i needed this to go away and she did everything in her power to make sure i walked away and i did! I highly recommended her!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GIVING ME MY LIFE BACK

The Best Lawyer gets the job done!

I must start off by saying at first I didn’t believe in Justice. I was being Harassed an falsely accused of crimes I did not comment. I just could not believe a court would take on a case that was all made up by this Hateful person it was like my Life was being ripped away from me. An on top of it al...l this same person called cps on me an made more false reports. I just couldn’t get a break that is until I hired Mrs Sadiya Evangilista. She work my case to the best of her ability an her ability was The Best! She worked with my financial situation.And might I add I have a felony background. Both my criminal case an my Cps case were dismissed. Thanks to her an the knowledge of law she has. Even though she can be busy she always took the time to have personal conversations with me outside of my case to let me know that I wasn’t alone and that we were gonna fight this together. She was such a Blessing to my life when I thought I had no hope in this evil plot to destroy me. She became my Voice my Light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Look no further! You found The Best Lawyer Sadiya Evangilista! I will always hire her for any situation that requires her expertise!

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
