Honest and dependable, a rare find

Mr. Knight always returns calls promptly or he will have his assistant call to explain the delay. He gives honest, ethical advice and is patient and calm with the occasional client meltdown. I've used other lawyers and have never had as professional of an experience as with Mr. Knight.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
