About
My practice emphasizes tax, business law, and insolvency matters, including Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization cases, and alternatives to bankruptcy such as loan workouts, state court supervised entity dissolutions, and Assignments for the Benefit of Creditors. I also handle federal, state, and local civil tax matters, both in and out of court, including audits, penalty abatement applications, appeals, and petitions for redetermination. I represent individuals and entities including debtors, creditors, others affected by another party's bankruptcy or insolvency case, and taxpayers. I have substantial experience in probate and trust matters, and early in my career was employed as a Tax professional at a Big 8 public accounting firm. I work closely with my clients to meet their objectives in a professional, thorough, and cost effective manner. I have been AV rated by Martindale Hubbell since 1989, the highest possible rating for an attorney for both ethical standards and legal ability.

Evan Smith was wonderful to work with. He listened. He was professional and patient while he explained the procedure for the Chapter 7 we filed. Mr. Smith was available via phone, text or email at all times and was efficient in returning contact. He represented me well at my hearing. I was grateful for his calming presence and his working knowledge of law.
Attorney Evan Smith, is one of a kind attorney that cares for his clients legal situations. I am very please with his work and how he handled my case to get it resolve. I recall how concern I was about my case wondering if I was going to loose or not but Evan came on the scene and assured me that everything will be okay. Now I recommend my family and friends to him for their legal needs. Thank you Evan for solving my case...
We had a complex bankruptcy. He helped to protect more assests than we anticipated. Discharged nearly $1 million in tax liability. Fought off many creditor attacts. Very pleasant. Sometimes hard to get hold of.
He was a good resource and got things done for us. He was very knowledgeable and was a great person to just ask basic questions. He handed a debt issue for us and took care of it with guile and ability. The only complaint I have was that during economic climate such as what we're going through now, it seems to have increased his work load substantially enough that his response times were sporadic. Sometimes he would be fast and diligent about getting it done. Sometimes it would take weeks to even hear from him. But, as luck may have it, the delays worked out in our favor.
