outstanding

Bill represented my daughter on a felony offense. This has been going on for a couple of years and Bill will tell month after month to be patient he has a reason for doing things. The DA kept her on hold cause they wanted her to testify against the co-defendant,. Today was our day in court - and ...Bill and his associate Jodi used it to our benefit. We could not be more pleased with the outcome we got. Yes, will use Bill again if ever needed. Thank you so much.

Outstanding service

My Knox represented me on two cases . One was a felony and other a misdemeanor . He met with me anytime I needed and always called me back . I was a nervous and difficult client who asked a lot of questions and needed hand holding . He and his staff explained everything g to me throughout the who pro...cess . My cases were difficult in nature but also difficult because I had made mistakes in the past . I faced jail time but Mr Knox worked very hard and in end I received Deferred Adjudication on both cases. I also received probation. When I complete probation Mr Knox said he will have theses charges removed from my record. I would highly recommend Bill Knox to anyone needing a lawyer. He's the best.

The BEST ATTORNEY in the Dallas Metroplex!

Mr. Knox is very knowledgeable and highly respected in the legal system. My nephew and my entire family are forever grateful for his legal counsel. Prior to my nephew being referred to Mr. Knox, my nephew was told that he could get 7 to 10 years or more in the Huntsville Penitentiary if found guilt...y. We were all devastated at the thought of the possibility of my nephew going to prison. When my nephew and his mother went to the office of Bill Knox for legal counsel, Mr. Knox was very kind and understanding while allowing my nephew to detail the alleged incident. Mr. Knox told them that he would work very hard in proving his innocence to the best of his ability. As a result, the case has been dismissed and it was proven that my nephew was not guilty. Again, we owe the successful outcome of my nephew’s case to Mr. Knox’s legal expertise. I highly recommend Mr. Knox and his professional legal staff to legally represent you. He is the Best!

Best Darn Attorney in Dallas,Texas!

Bill Knox..this name is on every mouth at Frank Crowley. His outstanding pursuance in a probation revocation case, turned out to be a spectacular, phenomenal, miraculous event. Mr. Knox, skillfully attained the help of two attorney colleagues, and masterfully conqured a case gone wry. An unbelieveab...le "LIFE" sentence was handed down to one of his client's on a friday. Within two weeks, Mr.Bill Knox had his client back in court with the most amazing defense ladened counter-attack, precise, clever, an absolute attestment to his wit and knowledge that could only come from his years of experience. It was awesome to witness an actual "LIFE" sentence obliterated to an unprecedented three year probation. I was astounded that Mr. Knox went to the ultimate extreme to protect this defenseless client with such aptitude. If I believed in such things, I would say that Bill Knox has St. Micheal firmly on his right side. Mr. Knox you are an absolute exception to the rule, no doubt about it. One of few. God Bless and Keep You

Dedicated, caring professional

Bill worked tirelessly for months on our daughter's probation revocation hearing. His expertise and hard work kept her out of prison for an extended period resulting in a small extension of her probationary period. Thank you, Bill.
