Legal Services at McKnight Law Firm, PLLC

This is an intelligent and knowledgeable Attorney that will handle your case with honesty and at reasonable cost to his clients. I regard him as a first class Attorney, humble and willing to listen to his clients.

Posted by anonymous | September 04, 2014 | Criminal Defense

Guided us through a very difficult time, successful in obtaining a fair sentence.

Mr. McKnight is an excellent attorney. He was responsive to our needs and answered all of our questions. He helped my son and I get through a very trying time in our lives. My son was accused of something he did not do but was hard to prove his innocence. Mr McKnight helped us get a sentence my ...son could live with and not totally ruin his life. We are so thankful he was there for us. Very trustworthy! His asssistant Debbie was a delight to work with as well.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
