Don't hire anyone but this lawyer

This woman is like Mary Poppins she is perfect and amazing in every way. Let me say this, I have delt with abuse of my abuser for 15 years. After abusing myself, our child, and then another child he had with another victim, he continued on his path. He nearly got away with it. FCS bought his lies a...nd didn't spend the time to look through the hundreds on end pages of evidence from doctors, mental health providers, and school records, as well as look into all the CPS reports from the school against him. But this lovely woman made sure the truth was heard and the evidence was seen and I was granted my permanent order. Hire her, there is simply no one better. You wont regret it. She has an incrediable background as well. Her heart is kind and genuine. Her last name is now Stratton.

Skillful, compassionate, committed, and went the extra mile

Evangeline Simmons represented me in a Domestic Violence Protection Order stalking case. My case ended up being unusual in a few ways, and she did a very skillful job building a strategy that was successful for me. I was tremendously grateful to her for her knowledge, commitment, and the way that she... went the extra mile in pulling together the documents and pleadings for the protection order, as well crafting responses to other intervening events, which had added to the complexity of my case. Throughout, I felt she was doing everything that she could to help me. I had never been through anything like this before, and was fairly stressed by the experience. Evangeline's professionalism, plus her clear compassion for domestic violence/stalking victims, gave me the faith that I was in good hands -- and I was. Even though it's possible to go through a DVPO hearing on your own, without a lawyer, I know that I would have been lost without her help. She was available, responsive, clear, caring and resourceful. I absolutely recommend her, without reservation. She did an excellent job.
