This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Professional and attention to detail

Mr. Evans recently defended my brother and we believe that Mr. Evans did everything in his power to prepare and deliver the best defense my brother could have hoped for. Mr. Evans was always professional and it was truly evident that he cared deeply about the case and well being of my brother. As... a family member, I was impressed by Mr. Evans willingness and effort in keeping me apprised of all aspects of the case and I knew that if I reached out to him with a question or concern, I would get a quick response. Thank you, Jacob, for your excellent representation.

The MAN

I'm sure without Jakob M. Evans I would be spending the rest of my life in Prison for something I did not do. I could not pay for a more dedicated and professional lawyer. I owe this man my life. Thank you Jake for everything you did. Straight Shooter* for sure. 100% SATISFIED #BLT

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Hardworking, Persevering, Caring and Professional.

I would like to say that Mr. Evans conducted himself as any and all attorneys should. When I was totally lost and clueless about my legal troubles I was facing myself and Mr Evans talked about everything truthfully. Mr. Evans took my information and case and proceeded to work on the best route for me... to get help myself personally and to help me resolve these issues in court. For a whole year we stayed in communication constantly and he made sure everything I had to do on my end was being taken care of. In the end all my criminal issues were resolved and helped me out tremendously and everything in court was resolved for the better. Thank you Mr. Evans from me and my son. -Adrian

Dedication and Integrity

Mr. Evans was from my experience a man that is dedicated and full of integrity. As my public defender he was professional, honest, and diligent. He works extremely hard and was very thorough in my case. If you are not guilty and Mr. Evans is your public defender, your case is on the right track.

Honorable representation.

Mr. Evans is one of the greatest attorneys I have have seen in action. His dedication, passion and professionalism is second to none. He worked very hard gathering all the information, testimonies, witnesses, video surveillance, case law, penal codes and such to prove innocence and get the case dismi...ssed. If you’re looking for an attorney who posses sound judgment, great communication, and a passion for what he does. Mr. Evans is your man. He is a man of honor in my humble opinion and I can’t recommend him enough. Thank you Mr. Evans for all that you do in service to the public and for honest representation.
