This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Victorious - Spousal Support/Opposing Atty Fees

I can't thank Mr. Evans enough for his guidance, direction and legal support on my divorce case, specifically spousal support and attorneys fees that were being requested of me. Mr. Evans was very determined in his strategy, secured my feedback, understanding and approval, then actioned it accordin...gly. Case went to trial and we were victorious on both items. Quick on his feet, found several discrepancies in court, during trial on respondent's paperwork; presented/argued our case and judge ruled completely in our favor. What a fantastic outcome. Thank you Mr. Evans, for everything.

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.
