Theft Case - DISMISSED!!

THE ABSOLUTE BEST ATTORNEY!!! DO NOT CONSULT ANOTHER ATTORNEY!! If you do not hire Attorney Evangelista you will definitely regret it! She is the absolute best, and will tell you the real deal 100%! She accepts nothing less than a dismissal. All cases are definitely not the same, and not all cases ar...e able to be dismissed, however Attorney Evangelista will not stop until she has accepted the best deal possible. She has excellent payment plans for every budget. We are located in one of the hardest counties in Texas, and being African-American in the suburbs outside of Houston was a huge strike. Other attorneys would not even push for a dismissal; stating a dismissal was impossible. The only option was to accept deferred adjudication. Attorney Evangelista said no way, and we were out of there within 20 minutes with a dismissal in hand. Everyone else was there all day and still had their cases either reset or accepted deferred adjudication or probation. Attorney Evangelista is definitely a woman of her word and will not just take your money and not work for you. We love her! CALL HER IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN ATTOTRNEY!

Exellent Counsel

I had a prior for driving whole license invalid and received another one while my license was suspended. Ms. Evangelista got my case completely dismissed! They wanted to give me time served again but now I can walk away completely done with thanks. The payment plans helped me a lot as well. Would rec...ommend using Ms. Evangelista

Exellent Counsel

I had a charge for "interferance with a public servant" basically a public intoxication charge. Mrs. Evangelista had it dismissed within mintues after the dockett was called. Best of all she was able to cater to my financial situation with a payment plan, i am quite greatful for what she did for me.

Efficient and reliable

Fantastic lawyer. She was able to get my case dismissed when I was looking at 6 months on a marijuana possession charge. She allows payment plans that helped with the financial burden of court. Thank you.
