Jimmy and his team were able to efficiently and adeptly support drafting and notarizing our agreement despite a tight timetable and the natural holiday interference with Thanksgiving. Jimmy spent time during the initial consult to understand our specific needs and tailor a deliverable that worked for our particular situation. I would recommend Evans Family Law for any of your pre-marriage legal needs.

I chose Evans Family Law Group for my divorce and I've been very happy with that decision. I highly recommend them. Hands down the most impressive characteristic of the firm has been their communication. They explained their pricing up front, they respond very quickly when you have questions or concerns and Mr. Evans explained different options for me clearly when we encountered a minor bump in the road due to an uncooperative soon to be ex-spouse. All of this adds up to great service.

Jimmy and his team are amazing. The depth of experience and ability to advise on my divorce was incredible. It became very clear to me that they work very hard at what they do. The most amazing thing that I continued to notice was how Jimmy could see far down the road and predict what was going to happen based on the TX legal system in conjunction with the personalities of opposing counsel. This was impressive and these are the qualities you want in an attorney that you hire to represent you. Surprises are the most difficult thing when you are going through tough times like this, and Evans Family Law Group does their best to set proper expectations and ease the anxiety of their clients. I would highly recommend their services for any family law related matter.

I hired Mr. Evans for a child custody and child support case. I worked with his team for the past year. Every time I reached out they were extremely responsive and supportive. There is nothing I would have asked them to do different in how they worked with me.

I came to Mr. Evans for an adoption. My husband wanted to adopt my two children from a previous relationship. My husband was deployed to Iraq during the process and Mr. Evans was very patient. Once he returned the adoption was finalized. Everything went smooth and the office was very informative. My family feels that the law office was very caring and understanding to our situation. I would definitely recommend Mr. Evans to my friends and family

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.
