Yesterday

Jerry Balentine

The history of Evans & Davis can be traced back to 1975 when Jerry Balentine and the Heritage Law Firm pioneered the modern estate planning process in the region.

Over the years, Balentine’s reputation and involvement in the industry grew into a driving force as he authored various books on wealth preservation and served as a founding member of WealthCounsel, one of the country’s largest independent network of estate planning attorneys.

Founders Bryan Evans and Dustin Davis

Evans & Davis was formed in August of 2002 by Bryan Evans and Dustin Davis.

The founders, from the beginning, strove to create an estate planning experience that was pleasant, meaningful and secure enough to address the myriad of challenges facing families. Starting with just two employees, the firm has always focused on integrity, innovation and quality.

Merging with Balentine in 2012, Evans & Davis continued to focus on providing individuals, families and businesses with unparalleled representation in the areas of estate planning, business planning and transactional law. Although the firm expanded throughout the years, it consistently maintained its client-centered focus and commitment to the prosperity of the community.
