My God sent!

Hiring the first attorney was the worst decision i ever made as he was sleeping and snoring in the court but firing him and hiring Ms McKnight was the best decisions i ever made! I was oppressed by the wealthy oppressors but Ms McKnight stood up for me and made me know that law is not about wealth, ...My concern was all about my kids whom the oppressors doesn’t ever want me to see ever again but she stood up for fairness and fought for me in the court,even when she advised me not to bring some stuffs up in the court i did which could have affected the outcome of my case but she always have that magic like David Copperfield to make things right, I see why someone titled her Magical McKnight! As a father i have equal rights on my kids just like their mom,if you are a father and thinks you don’t have any chances please try this lady and if you are a mother you have a better chance hiring this magically miraculous lady. Thank you so much Ms McKnight,words are never enough to express my gratitude.

No nonsense attorney

There is not enough words to express the gratitude that me and my family have for Ms McKnight and her team. For three years we stood strong, we battled , and EVERY court case we won! More importantly we where able to give my son the help that he needed thanks to her services. We never lost a cour...t case and we won the most important one that gave me primary custody of my son, for that I am forever in debted to you. If you are looking for a team that will be just as invested in the end result, look no further. She is a no nonsense legal warrior that stays prepared for every battle at hand.

Magical McKnight

Attorney McKnight and her entire team were absolutely AMAZING. Professionalism at its best. The first time I contacted the office I was greeted with a smile. Very efficient, precise and very timely with each point of contact. It was such a pleasure to work with each and every person. They went above ...and beyond to ensure my case was prepared. We WON! Anytime I had a question, they were always available to respond. No question was too small. I HIGHLY recommend this AMAZING team. Five stars isn’t enough to explain the epitome of EXCELLENCE that they represent and for the representation they provide.

Excellent Services

Attorney Melaniece B. McKnight was a blessing and a resource to our family. My family experienced an unfortunate situation that affected my sister and niece in December of 2017. Attorney McKnight agreed to meet with us and under very little notice, and she willingly took our case. The holidays were v...astly approaching and there was very little time to prepare. She and her staff were extremely professional, knowledgeable, and efficient when handling my sister’s case regarding her divorce and custody battle. The staff members were always courteous and attentive, making us feel that my sister’s case was the only one being handled by the firm, when she was likely one of many. Attorney McKnight is well-versed in family law and she wanted the absolute fairest and best outcome for my sister and her daughter. Her commitment to our case demonstrated integrity as well as passion. Phone calls and emails were answered in a timely manner. Attorney McKnight was also available when we needed to talk via phone to clarify any information that was presented. Most importantly, she is genuine, supportive, and dedicated. My sister gained primary custody of her daughter with her guidance, counsel, and expertise. Without reservation, I would highly recommend Attorney Melaniece B. McKnight to handle your family needs.

An Attorney You Want on Your Side

Attorney McKnight was extremely knowledgeable in handling my divorce case in 2015. She was not only an advocate for what was right, she was an advocate for my rights as an actively engaged and responsible father. She is the attorney you want on your side......you don't want to face her!!
