Practical and Extremely Extensive

This lawyer has represented me in various cases. In a county with a 99% conviction rate he had represented me and using an extensive basis of measures to ensure victory despite the odds, he was successful. He had also negotiated a minimal 6 month jail hold to a $1,000,000 bail, and within two weeks ...set down that to $5000 successfully arranging the 10% D for the client to walk that day. Alongside those, he has had helped quash warrants using the system's flawed communication as a basis, and has pleaded his client's cases with full dedication and goes an extra mile without hesitation.

Trustworthy and compassionate!

William Knox represented me in a lawsuit in which I was being sued for medical bills that I simply could not afford. I did my best to pay as much as I could, but in the end, the hospital ended up suing me for the balance I owed. Not only did Mr. Knox do the work pro bono, but also he instantly made... me feel relieved even before he won the case. I trusted him with my personal medical information. He made me feel at ease and because of his experience and knowledge, he won the case! I highly recommend him and will gladly hire him in the event I need legal representation again.

TRUSTWORTHY

One word sums up Bill - trustworthy. I am an attorney myself, and had Bill represent me on couple litigation cases. His performance was stellar and the results were more than satisfatory. You can trust Bill regarding his competence, knowledge, performance, advocacy, professionalism, honesty, kindn...ess, and to top it off, reasonable fee. At the end of the day if you don't have trust in your attorney, you have nothing. I highly recommend Bill as your next and lasting attorney.

Excellent Lawyer

Bill represented me in my child custody, it was a difficult time in my life and Bill provided me with the reassurance I needed to get me through it. Throughout the entire time he was professional, dedicated and determined which was exactly what I needed in a lawyer. It was those qualities in him th...at helped me win my custody battle. I'm glad I had him by my side. He is exactly the kind of lawyer you need at your side. I would not hesitate to hire him again if I ever need him.

Best Lawyer In Chicago

He probably won’t admit it but I’m pretty sure I’m Bill’s illegitimate problem child lol. He’s helped me since I was a a young dumb teen. From beating criminal charges in my younger years to helping me fight for my own kids in family court as an adult,...I honestly don’t know where I’d be without Bi...ll. He’s firm in the court rooms when needed, very saavy, and has a high understanding for the law. And he also cares about the people he reps. Bill gets the job DONE.

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.
