Reviews for James W.
Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Mr. Evans helped my kids and I. It is hard to work through custody matters and not spend your kids college savings. Mr. Evans helped keep my ex and I out of court. I would definitely recommend Mr. Evans.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank The Evans Family Law firm for working with me on my extended divorce process. Giving special attention to Ms. Caitlin McGregor. Always the consummate professional. I truly felt well represented with not only her knowledge of family law but she took time to be sure I felt heard. She always kept me well informed, which helped tremendously with the anxiety that came along with the seemingly endless divorce. She showed real concern which kept me on a positive note in what has been a very dark time for me. And proved to be a great negotiator on my behave. Not to forget she was also working with an awesome team of paralegals and professionals. Thank you all for your hard work and persistence in this case.
Katy Spencer helped me feel like I mattered and that I was not just another client. The work she did for me and the way she listened was a huge help! She helped me see things from a realistic and down to earth viewpoint. Thank you Katy
Kimberley House and Wendi Ihrig worked on my divorce case I started my legal process on October and by December was everything completed. I really appreciated the diligence , accuracy and speedy process I went through. A friend recommended me to give them a call to have a free consultation.
Intake was a thorough process that set us up for success for the rest of the divorce process. My questions were generally answered quickly. I would have appreciated some expectation-setting along the way, as I had no idea how long certain processes should take or when I should reach out to follow up. All-in-all, Evan Family Law made my divorce a smooth and easy process.
Excellent experience! They were professional and communicative throughout the entire process. I couldn't recommend their services more! Even though I wasn’t the most knowledgeable heading into the case they were great at explaining every step of the way for me. They were understanding in my position of being a single father and just needing my rights protected and standing up for me in the crafting of our Parental Agreement. Big thank you to EFL Group for their great work and direction during our case!
I hired Kimberley House as my attorney for custody and Jon was my paralegal. They both were great and on top of every communication, filed paperwork way ahead of any deadline. If I had a hot button issue I always received a call back or quick response via email. Kimberley was able to negotiate a visitation schedule and my exclusive parental rights w/ my child’s Father. If I have to go back to court regarding custody I would choose Kimberley and Jon again.
Excellent service. Great with communication from all members of the team. Whether it be multiple attorneys, finance, legal assistants etc. They made my husband and I feel 100% comfortable with all proceedings. We live out state with a 3 hour time difference and they made it work. This was for a grandparent rights case. I would definitely recommend the Evans Family Law Group.
Working with Jimmy has been amazing. I felt I had a detail oriented, well-educated, determined attorney in my corner. I recommend him for any dispute and trust him completely for all of mine, now, and moving forward. There’s not enough to say to explain the confidence I had with my situation having Jimmy and his firm on my team.
Working with Evans Family Law was a great decision during my very stressful divorce. Working with Kimberley and the Evans team made this very difficult process much easier. There were many unexpected circumstances that came up during my divorce and they were able to navigate me through the challenges. I appreciate their level of communication. I had many questions and concerns and they were able to provide clear and helpful information. The Evans team is was very professional and empathetic to my situation. They were realistic about expectations and worked hard to get me the best outcome possible. The billing was itemized, straightforward, and transparent about their services.
