caring attorney

I was injured when a car hit me while riding my bicycle. Ken Knabe was my lawyer: his advocacy was stellar: as a fellow cyclist, he understood the accident, my injuries and the impact on my life which resulted in a great settlement.

Highly recommended

Highly Recommended When I was injured in a car accident last year, Mr. Knabe was recommended to me. I will always be grateful for the recommendation...not only was I very pleased with the outcome, the fact that Mr. Knabe is so experienced made the process as comfortable as possible; he was always... there whenever I had questions or concerns. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing a personal injury attorney.

He was recommended to me, and I would recommend him as well.

I work in the legal field myself, and a friend of mine (also an attorney) recommended Ken. I am from Ohio and was involved in a car accident out of the state. Ken was knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. He was clear about what we should expect and outlined the process for us. If I had a ...question, Ken would usually call back same day or within 24hours. He has many years of experience handling these matters, and I felt comfortable working with him. I am overall satisfied with the work that he performed, and I would recommend him to anyone with an injury claim.

Fights for you

Mr. Knabe changed my preconceived notions of attorneys. Easy to speak to, caring, determined and patient. He's always made me feel like he's genuinely on my side. I am grateful for his advisement and how he allowed me to consider all options before making decisions. He kept me involved through th...e process was prompt in returning calls and answering all questions.

Review on Kenneth James Knabe outstanding injury lawyer

Kenneth Knabe is an injury outstanding lawyer. He helped me obtain a terrific settlement when I was hit by a car while riding my bike. He helped my nephew with a tremendous settlement when he was in a serious auto accident. I have known him for many years and he is diligent, aggressive and a total pr...ofessional. I know he is well regarded in the legal profession and speaks and publishes on injury law. I would highly recommend him, especially for any auto, truck or bicycle accident or injuries.
