Attorney Joseph Evangelista of Tempe, AZ; cheerleader for Attorney Misfits

The state of Pennsylvania presented Joseph Francis Evangelista with a law license in 2005 after she graduated from Temple University Law School.

In one matter, Joey volunteered to be a character witness on behalf of disgraced attorney Anthony Cianfrani’s action to have his law license reinstated. Cianfrani had his law license suspended for five (5) years for stealing client funds.

In support of Cianfrani’s application to reinstate his law license, Joey had the chutzpah to testify that:

“Gary has a good reputation in the community as a peaceful and law-abiding person and as a truthful and honest person.”

So here we have an attorney laughingly claiming that an admitted thief is a law-abiding person who is both truthful and honest. Since when did a thief become anointed as an honest and law-abiding citizen? Moreover, one must wonder what “community” Joey is speaking about. It surely isn’t a community made up of ethical individuals who would never consider testifying that a thief was “an honest person.”

FYI: A copy of Cianfrani’s misconduct can be viewed by visiting the URL at the end of this article.

Apparently, Joey was of the firm belief that Mr. Cianfrani had a constitutional right to earn a dishonest living practicing law in Pennsylvania.

As we speak (ca. October 2017), Joey practices with Verde Capital Partners LLC at 1720 West Rio Salado Parkway in Tempe, Arizona.
