True Advocate

Michelle was great through my pending divorce. She asked the right questions and gave advice that really helped through the process and focused on what I was looking to achieve.

Exceeded expectations

I was extremely happy with the legal advice I received. My needs and opionions were heard. Michelle was very friendly and happy to answer all my questions and concerns. Appreciated her being patient with me and explaining all the next steps what to expect and what it means to me. Michelle was prepar...ed and knows the laws well, could tell she was is a experienced lawyer. Invoice was detailed and easy to understand the charges. What can be a emotionally and hard experience was the best experience I could of asked for. thank you Kniess law!

Divorce after 28 years of marriage

Michelle crafted a very versatile divorce decree that was accepted by my ex-wife. I avoided alimony and retained a larger portion of my retirement portfolio.

Divorce/Child Custody

This was my first experience with any lawyer/law issue - Michelle and her team did an excellent job training and helping me through this. Michelle was very straight forward on what to expect with the initial consultation, negotiated extremely well throughout the entire (almost) 2 year process. Aman...da is amazing as well. She did fantastic work, quickly responded and was extremely reassuring. As a team they did a great job handling my case. Negative reviews stated that people were frustrated by the lack of response. I will say initially I was frustrated myself, but Michelle and Amanda reminded me that I pay for them to read my emails/answer my phone calls and respond. So know that they are working on it when it needs to be worked on to help prevent excessive charges to you!! They got me involved when I needed to be and kept me updated as there were updates. I was very happy that I had Michelle and Amanda with me to help me through the worst couple years of my life.

Excellent family law attorney

This review is long over due. I met Michelle in 2009 while she was an associate attorney at another firm. My divorce was very tricky and was a "perfect storm" of unfortunate events. I learned so much through the process and I think Michelle did too. I NEEDED an advocate that would be able to change m...y "game". Michelle and the firm she was with did that. Michelle is smart, thorough, compassionate, and patient. 2009-10 was a life changing time for me and thanks to Michelle & her team, it was a positive change. Life in 2015 is full of blessings and MK is one of the members of "Team J" that worked feverishly in 09-10 that made today's blessings possible. If you are in need of a family law attorney, reach out to Michelle, you will not be disappointed.
