I retained Mr. Evans on legal aid for a family matter. I had de-facto 50% custody of all 3 of my children. My ex wife alienated the oldest and withheld the youngest. Mr Evans needed only file, and argue, an emergency motion for my youngest to be returned immediately, and for access to be granted to the oldest. He politely refused convincing me it wasn’t good strategy. He instead waited for my ex to file an Application and subsequent motion with the court alleging every type of abuse under the sun.
Mr. Evans appeared to fear opposing counsel and pressured me into signing a consent for a mere 16 hours per week with my youngest. It took me 1year, 4 months to return to 50% custody with a better lawyer.
I fired him within 3 months. He didn’t: complete my form 10 (Answer), file any motions in court, only 1 counter motion, or even have me sign a retainer agreement.
I believe Mr. Evans to be very lazy, and uniformed on legal matters. Mr Evans doesn’t even have an assistant. Walk on
