Look no further…

I cannot express the gratitude my family and I have for Evan. Evan treated our case with the most respect, support and unwavering determination to do what was needed. He goes above and beyond not only for your case, but to support you during extremely difficult and emotional times. He speaks to you i...n terms you will understand, with grace. I hope to never need Evan again, but if I did, he would be the first person I call!

Evan and Ted, along with many office staff deserve way more than 5 stars!!!

Our family knew after sitting down with Evan that he would take care of our son and fight for justice. We almost lost our son and this was a emotional time for us all. Evan stood beside each of us with love and support. Our sons future is forever changed and we are grateful to Evan for this. So happ...y we hired him to take care of your son and our family. Thank you, Evan, Ted and their staff.

Best Choice for your Legal Needs!

I hired Evan for legal advice regarding an employment claim. I knew nothing about the legal system. He was able to walk me through the process, educate me along the way, help me understand my options and provide clear direction. I always felt in charge of my own decisions and never felt pressured one... way or the other. His feedback gave me clarity to feel confident that I made the right decision. Evan is results-driven, knowledgeable, candid and honest. I found Evan easy to talk to and trustworthy. I found comfort in knowing I could ask any question and have it explained to me in a way that was clear, easy to follow, and not a lot of legal jargon. I also appreciate that he was mindful of the amount of time and money I wanted to spend on the case, and he would tell me if I was nearing my limit. Not only is he a great advisor for legal claims, his writing is impeccable. He reviewed and proofread my resignation letters and provided additional verbiage to bring my point across to make my letter sound more legally correct, effective and professional, yet still be written by me. He went above and beyond by following up promptly and was always punctual. I have referred him to other colleagues and strongly recommend Evan without any reservation! He always has his client’s best interest at heart. It felt great having him as an advocate on my side, championing for my rights. From Day 1, he exceeded my expectations. I would hire him again in a heartbeat!

Professional with clients best interest.

Evan approaches you as a client with your best interest in mind and educates you along the way. Not only did he go above and beyond in my personal injury from a car accident ,but he checked in how I doing medically through my PT process/doctor follow ups. He was clear and concise throughout the proce...ss, explaining what his suggestions were for the next move and always leaving it up to me ultimately to make decisions. I would highly recommend Evan for your attorney needs. He leaves no doubt where is priority is, that's with you his client. Highly professional, highly effective attorney, and I could not have hired a better person to go and fight for my well being. Glad he was in my corner.

He is professional, intelligent, and a lifesaver!

I have never been involved in a lawsuit before and to be honest the entire process made me really nervous. From day one until the very last day Evan always made me feel like I knew what was going on and I understood it because of how he was able to explain every part of the process to me. His passion... for what he does shows and makes you feel safe. His knowledge for your case and the effort and work he puts into ensuring that he knows everything he should know about your case is not only reassuring but helps you feel confident in what can be a very stressful time. Not only was Evan able to produce the best possible outcome for me during my case, but he took something that could have been a huge low in my life and one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to go through, and made it feel enjoyable and effortless because I was able to trust him as my attorney completely. And I think that that is something that you need when hiring a lawyer.To feel confident in the the person you are choosing to defend you, to speak for you, and have your back. Evan has found a profession that was made for him. He is an incredible intelligent driven lawyer who doesn’t give up on you until he feels he went above and beyond for you. He is the only lawyer that I would ever recommend. I will never be able to thank him enough.
