Fantastic family lawyer

Miss Knox has been fantastic and hardworking from day one. She listened intently at the consultation, and over the next year and a half has been very thorough and compassionate throughout the whole ordeal. As a father going through family court, this can be a tough experience. She has made this much ...more palatable as well as comprehensive. I did a lot of my own research and homework and provided this to her in order to help her help me, and she told me that she greatly appreciates the fact that my organization skills and help on my end has been beneficial to her getting this case through the legal system here in Pinellas County. Highly recommended, aggressive when needs to be, yet professional and experienced. If you're looking for one of the areas best family lawyers that truly cares about her clients, I would recommend giving her a call for a consultation.

Patient. Personable. Professional. Lawyers who practice with care.

I retained the services of Allison Belcher with only a week before my final divorce hearing. I had previously worked with another lawyer Who had to remove himself less than a month before the final hearing. I scrambled for the next two weeks trying to find any lawyer who could help me. I made a consu...ltation and was completely honest about my situation. Allison and her paralegal, Karren, graciously took my case and worked tirelessly to help me. My case included the dissolution of marriage with a minor child. With only a week's time, Allison worked to communicate with opposing counsel while telling me documents I needed to forward to her. She was in constant contact and assured me of the realistic outcomes of my divorce. I will be forever grateful to her for how compassionate and knowledgeable she showed to be in court. I was able to avoid a long drawn-out trial and get most of what I wanted in the end.I am grateful to the Law Office of Knox and Belcher for assisting me in the 11th hour. 5 stars.

Unorganized and slow

I hired Kristal to file an emergency custody filing for my children, it was one delay after another. She was given all the information she asked for and then came the I also need this, that oh and other info. it took her a week and still no emergency filing. time was of the essence and she knew that..., but yet nothing. So I lost my retainer and hied another atty. and got my emergency hearing the next day. I should have listened to my boyfriend's ex wife about Kristal Knox, she tried to tell me the delays and how unorganized Kristal was. I Do Not recommend her especially if it is a time sensitive or emergency type case, but if you have time to waste and money to spend then be my guest hire Kristal. Oh and never got any invoices of what the charges for the case was.
