Biography

The Hon. Kelli M. Evans is a judge for the Alameda County Superior Court in California. She was appointed to the bench by Governor Gavin Newsom on July 9, 2021, filling a vacancy created by the retirement of the Hon. Thomas C. Rogers.

Prior to her appointment, Evans worked for the Office of Governor Gavin Newsom. She started as the Deputy Legal Affairs Secretary for Criminal Justice in 2019, rising through the ranks to become Chief Deputy Legal Affairs Secretary in 2020. Before that, she spent time as the Special Assistant to the Attorney General at the California Department of Justice (2017 to 2019).

Evans earned a J.D. from the University of California, Davis School of Law in 1994.

After graduating from law school, Evans began her legal career as a deputy public defender for the Sacramento County Public Defender’s Office in 1995. Later that same year, she became a staff attorney for the American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California, a position she held for the next three years.

In 1998, Evans joined the United States Department of Justice. She served as a senior trial attorney in the Civil Rights Division until 2001, at which time she entered into private practice as an associate at Relman & Associates. Then, in 2006, she was named partner at Independent Assessment & Monitoring.

Evans returned to the American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California in 2010. She spent the next three years as its Associate Director before becoming the Senior Director for the Administration of Justice at the California State Bar in 2014. During this time, Evans sat as a member of federal court-appointed monitoring teams for the Oakland Police Department and the Cleveland Police Department.

Evans was a resident of Oakland, California, at the time of her appointment.

She is registered as a Democrat.
