Donald David Knuckey Jr.

Mr. Knuckey has represented me in a family case for well over 2 years now. I believe that the reason it has taken this long is almost entirely because of Mr. Knuckeys lackadaisical attitude and his spiritless presence in the courtroom and In general. His failure to "fight" for me as his client has... left me with next to no access to my child in years and countless hoops to be traversed to even begin to rectify what his inaction has caused. Mr. knuckeys decision to work for a affordable legal firm in retrospect is a irresponsible and reckless thing to do on behalf of his clients past, present, and future. I wish I had recognized it earlier, but it is abundantly clear to me now that he is no family case lawyer. after all this I wouldn't trust him as a attorneyp even in the bankruptcy field. I can only imagine he is just as inept there. well over 2 years of extensions and drawbacks and I've made it nowhere if not backwards. He refuses to answer calls or emails to even acknowledge me or my case knowing my relationship with my son is in the balance. 0/5 stars if you care about whatever it is youre in court for then do not choose Mr. Donald Knuckey JR to represent you. It has solely been the most detrimental mistake I've ever made. aside from this review I intend to contact the Illinois BAR association as well. Do yourself a favor and keep looking for your representation elsewhere.

Donald Knuckey is a bad lawyer and a thief. I had my final meeting with him to submit my paperwork in JANUARY. He never filed my case and ignored calls, messages and emails from me for over SIX MONTHS. He finally got back to me only after I called his new law office. He was not remorseful. I have sin...ce attempted to file my case with him, again with no luck. I asked for a refund so I can find an attorney who will actually schedule a meeting and do the work- he will not do that either. So what do you call an attorney who doesn’t file your case OR return your money? A thief.
