Evan earned a J.D. from the University of Notre Dame Law School. He previously received a B.A. in Political Science with a minor in Economics from the University of Kentucky, graduating summa cum laude and earning Phi Beta Kappa recognition. His academic background combines political science, economics, and legal training, which preceded court-based work on constitutional issues, criminal proceedings, and complex commercial litigation.

The firm describes his work as covering both types of matters and presents Civil and Commercial Litigation among its core services, including Section 1983 and constitutional-rights disputes. His court experience includes disputed constitutional issues and proceedings on Kentucky’s Business Court docket, while his current work covers civil and criminal cases.
