Spectacular

Frances handled an accident case for me and my husband. Frances consistently kept us aware and alert to any and all changes over a long and involved case. She is truly compassionate, intelligent & honest. She took what was a nightmare for my family and made me feel extremely confident in her hands. I... am very pleased with how all aspects were handled. I will recommend Frances as often as possible.

No one better

I met Frances Knox in 2009 after my son passed from an automobile accident. She was warm, compassionate, and instantly gained my trust. She also represented me in a car accident a few years later and made sure my needs were met and a proper settlement was achieved. I can't say enough good things abou...t Frances.

Frances earned our trust

Thinking about our will and estate documents was a scary thing. We put this off for too long. Thankfully, we found Frances and the Knox Law Center. Frances sought to understand our needs from the very beginning. She provided the perfect combination of legal wisdom and personal consultation. She ...was a pleasure to work with. Our children's future now feels safe.

Excellent Service and person!

Frances helped me out when I was involved in a car accident that was not my fault and the other person's insurance company was giving me the "run around". She and her staff made the entire process so smooth! She also helped our family out with my mom's estate when she passed away and made that entire... process go so smoothly at a time of great sorrow for our family. She is so caring and willing to do what ever is needed to help you out and is a true woman of her word. Not something you typically find easily these days! I would recommend her to everyone I know.

Will, POA

Frances and her team helped me and my husband organize and draw up our last will and testament along with all other pertinent documents. She also gave suggestions and forms to further organize personal items wished to be bestowed to love ones and aide in benefactors finding all legal papers, open ac...counts, etc. Thank you so much, Frances!
