Ingrid Evans is one of those lawyers that you always hope really exists somewhere, but you rarely find in real life.

Ingrid Evans was a bright light during one of the darkest periods of my life. Unlike other attorneys I had talked to, Ingrid wasn't taking our case with monetary figures in mind. Ingrid is one of those rare attorneys who still has a keen sense of justice, and a sense of what is and is not acceptabl...e in a decent society. She didn't even give me a monetary figure of what our elder abuse/wrongful death lawsuit might be worth. She took the case because she knew that what was done to my mom was an outrage. Watching Ingrid work is like watching a master artist or skillful warrior at work. I was constantly amazed at how skillfully she not only refuted the opposing lawyers' arguments, but went on the offense getting them on every point of negligence that the people they were defending had committed. I'm an artist and musician, and I've always admired watching someone who is really masterful at what they do. Ingrid is exactly that in her profession: a master at work in the legal profession. That combined with an empathetic and compassionate heart, makes her a rare person in this day and age. She's one in a million. She and her team are all very personable as well as professional at what they do. Besides everything I've mentioned thus far, Ingrid went WAY above and beyond what she was hired to do. She helped me with multiple issues that came up that were not part of our contract. And not just a little bit, but she followed up everything she helped me with all the way, far beyond what any other attorney would have done. Ingrid is a true humanitarian. She's one of those "hero lawyers" that you see in movies or TV shows that you always hope really exists somewhere, but you rarely find in real life. I don't know how much time I have left on the earth, but Ingrid Evans is one of those people that will always be a hero in my life's story. Most sincerely, Ian B

Ingrid Evans!

Ingrid Evans is a brilliant attorney and a person of great integrity. Her extraordinary legal expertise, exceptional trial skills, and commitment to justice is only matched by her kindness, empathy, and passion to protect the vulnerable who have no voice. Ingrid was a key speaker at a Financial ...Elder Abuse Conference I attended. Every word of her talk was inspiring and exactly what I needed to hear to realize our story wasn’t uncommon. I shared our story of the nasty legal battle of many years against corporate greed and predatory lending. The lender/salesperson knew mom and dad were sick and dying. But that didn’t stop him from isolating them from family making it easy to prey on them. I never suspected that my mom and dad would be the target of a greedy lender and slick salesman who would intentionally deprive them of their home and the comfortable retirement they worked for all their lives. But that was exactly what happened to my trusting parents. Dad was in the last month of his life with terminal cancer and mom had Alzheimer’s Disease and could only talk about her dogs she loved so much. Without hesitation Ingrid took our case and simply said “It is the right thing to do”. From that moment she sprung into action. She motivated us when we felt helpless and scared. Her organization of our case brought a sense of calm to our family that served us throughout our legal battles and over the years since. She helped us voice mom and dad’s story to prevent similar experiences from happening to thousands of other seniors. We are forever grateful to Ingrid. If you even suspect your elderly parents are victims of financial elder abuse, don’t wait until there is a crisis. Call Ingrid Evans about preventing, detecting, and remedying elder financial abuse of your loved ones.

Excellent help with our trust

Ingrid Evans helped us with our family trust. She was so great to work with. She was professional, efficient and very clear about what we needed to do. All the appropriate paperwork was emailed to us and we were counseled on how to fill it out appropriately. I would highly recommend this law firm ...for any kind of legal counsel you may need.

Excellent Financial Elder Abuse Attorney

We have been consulting with Ingrid for a couple of years now on a lengthy and highly complex financial elder abuse case. Regardless of Ingrid's large work volume, she has always made herself accessible and offered suggestions and advice in a very timely manner. We have worked with a number of attorn...eys over the years on this case; however, Ingrid has been the most impressive and we couldn't be more satisfied with her service and assistance.

Ingrid Evans, rescued a family legacy!

Evans Law firm has been wonderful to work with. From my very first conversation with Ingrid I knew I was working with a firm who cared about me and getting results. From filing a civil lawsuit and reaching a settlement in record time, to negotiating 100% return of my remaining investment with an annu...ity company refusing to deal with my requests, Ingrid knew exactly what to do. Without Ingrid my family would be left without a lifetime of savings. Most experiences with law firms in my past have been painful, long drawn out wallet draining experiences. Evans Law Firm deserves lots of Kudos. I will be sharing my experience at every opportunity possible. Ingrid I cannot thank you enough. Bill
