About Carl
Biography
I know that my clients are usually in a difficult situation when they come to me for help. I work to answer all of their questions and to put them at ease. Why work with an "agressive" lawyer who is going to fight with everyone over every issue? That is only going to increase your legal fees and your stress level. Instead work with a lawyer you know, like and trust!
I grew up in Blue Bell, PA and graduated from Wissahickon High School. I formed Knapp Law, to better serve the specific needs of my clients and to change the “typical law firm experience”. I currently live in Montgomery County with my wife and two children. I enjoy working out and practicing martial arts. During the summer, I spend time on Long Beach Island, New Jersey with my family.

Miscommunication Can Be COSTLY!
This firm did not help me. They took the money, though. I will be generous and chalk it up to miscommunication. It was costly, but I will make sure that I ask the Universe for a highly-specialized lawyer. (And I also have to pen a piece about how legal needs of the MARGINALIZED vary SUBSTANTIALLY!)

Honest & Trustworthy

A bit high conflict, can be mean
Mr. Knapp is nice enough in day to day interactions but I wasn’t pleased with how he treats other people involved in the legal matter. He seems to loose sight of the end game at times and can say very questionable things to people. As the hand that paid, he didn’t treat me personally like that but I ...
