Robert Knight takes Professional to a New Level

Robert is all in on your case. His office is on top of your case at all times. Friendly staff that make you feel like you are the only client they have. Robert not only was honest and straight forward, but also a force in the courtroom. Highly recommend!

An Attorney who gets the job done!

I hired Mr. Knight several years ago for a custody battle I knew would be tough to say the least. He stuck it out with me and never lost sight of our goal, (my kids and their well-being). We faced many obstacles, but in the end we prevailed and Mr. Knight came through for me. There is not enough I... can say about Mr. Knight and his professionalism, courtesy, and attention to detail. I had fired two other attorneys before finding Mr. Knight. He has gone above and beyond for me and has never let me down.

Great attorney

I Have been using Robert to represent me for the past several years in personal family matters. Very professional, knowledgeable, and honest. Robert also has great courtroom presence, professionalism, and forethought.

FAIR AND UP FRONT

Robert was very up front both professionally and personally on how to deal with the specifics in my case. Custody battles are tough and it's good to have the peace of mind that your lawyer has both, you and your kids, best interest in mind. The staff at Knight Law Firm was also very inviting and help...ful throughout the journey. Thank you Knight Law Firm!!

Child custody

I hired Mr Knight thru my child custody case and from the first consult to our last court date Mr Knight was there for me. I feel it was handled very professionally. With Mr. Knight being a father I felt he was handling my case as if it was his own. My case was not easy but we stuck with it and I... received full custody of my 3 minor children. With Mr Knight being a father and also a Christian I knew my case would be handled the best way it could be. If or when I need another lawyer I Will hire Mr Knight again. Mr Knight is the real deal. I would recommend him to anyone

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.
