Experienced, Friendly, Professional!

When I called the office to ask for assistance creating a Will, I was kindly greeted and given a convenient appointment. When my husband and I met with Frances, we immediately felt comfortable, and could tell we were in good hands. She asked important questions in a clear and respectful manner, and h...andled all of our questions the same way. Within the week, we received an email containing drafts of our documents for our review. We then made an appointment to sign them after any needed changes were made or further questions were answered. Frances also shared tips and recommendations for keeping documents organized and ensuring all related matters were addressed, which was needed and very helpful. Overall a great experience! Thank you Frances!

Frances Knox

Frances Knox is a credible attorney, who takes immediate action and shows great assurance to get the job done. She walked with me every step of the way, from helping me to getting medical attention, to receiving compensation for my injuries. She cares about each of her clients as if you were her only... one. I want to thank her for helping me to get the best results in a very timely manner and going above and beyond her required duties.Thank you, Stephanie

Tenacious

I was in a car accident and needed a personal injury lawyer. Frances and her staff handled my case very professionally and kept me informed throughout the process. They handled the interfaces with multiple automobile insurance companies as well as my healthcare insurance company. After the settlement..., one of the healthcare providers tried to retroactively bill me for thousands of dollars. Rather than leaving this for me to resolve, Frances and her staff expended quite a bit of time and effort at their own expense to painstakingly trace and resolve the payment/billing issue across multiple parties. Having Frances and her staff handle my case took a tremendous burden off of me and allowed me to focus on my physical recovery. I highly recommend Frances.
