introduction
After leaving the Tarrant County District Attorney’s Office, Mr. Evans worked in commercial litigation with Hill Gilstrap, a private firm in Arlington, Texas where Mr. Evans worked in such areas as contracts and business litigation; wills and estates litigation as well as airplane crash litigation until moving to Austin and joining his father’s legislative practice who had retired from 19 years of service in the Texas Legislature. There, Mr. Evans and his father spent a great deal of time being involved in Texas Politics. However, after becoming a father 9 years ago Mr. Evans has dedicated his practice exclusively in the area of family law and becoming a specialist in this area of practice and serving Travis County, Williamson County, and surrounding counties.
During Mr. Evans’ 19 years of practice, he has obtained extensive court room experience and has over 100 jury trials to his credit, including 8 now in the area of family law.
