Complex issues made simple
Jimmy Evans was recommended to me by my business attorney to handle my divorce; our joint estate was quite extensive with many accounts in both mine and my wife's names and many individual holdings as well. Jimmy and his team brought me through this tangled mess, instilling confidence while being ver...

Experienced and hardworking
I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the Evans Family Law Group during my divorce case. It was during the holidays. I needed an experienced lawyer quickly to respond to my spouses divorce filing. Jimmy Evans and his team worked with me to go through the process in detail even during Chri...

Highly recommend
I highly recommend James Evans as an attorney. Jimmy was an absolute pleasure to work with and I was impressed with the fact that he did not paint a rosy picture and told me upfront what to expect. The entire team is trustworthy and supportive!

Great Lawyer and law firm
I hired Jimmy to do my ugly divorce that was very unexpected. He was able to give me peace of mind and handle my situation that i was in. He was very experienced in family law and always reassured me that everything was going to be okay. He got my long drawn out case settled and i was able to move on...
"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked with Jimmy for several years. His ability to think strategically is unparalleled."
"I endorse this lawyer. Very responsive and knowledgeable. Attorney Evans was a pleasure to deal with and a real advocate for his clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jimmy is a tough opposing counsel. He practices family law the way a Russian chess master plays chess: He's always a few steps ahead of his opponent."
"I have known Jimmy for many years. He is very professional and a highly skilled family law attorney."
"Jimmy is a great advocate for his client. I highly recommend him. I have had the opportunity to see him in the courtroom and his trial skills are impressive."
"I have co-counseled with Jimmy in a number of cases, as well as been on the opposite side as Jimmy in cases. I have always been impressed with his creativity, advocacy for his clients and hard work. I endorse this attorney."
"I endorse this lawyer without equivocation. Jimmy has many qualities that distinguish him as a fine family law/divorce attorney. That being said, three jump to mind immediately. First, Jimmy is a man of his word. In a field that is often, by its nature, rife with anxiety, fear, and frustration, being able to trust another attorney's word has a tremendous impact on a client's ability to manage their emotions, the attorney' ability to remain focused on the legal issues, and finally, the overall cost of the suit. Secondly, Jimmy is reasonable, ever conducting "cost benefit analyses" of courses of action in suit and whether those courses of action lead to the best results with the least damage. And finally, Jimmy isn't afraid of a fight. I have found that most clients don't want to engage in heavy litigation, but do want to know that if they have to go to war, their guy knows how to throw punches. Jimmy can pack a wallop when needed."
