The best attorney In Dallas

I contacted Mr. Knox after I had been going to court for almost a year with no resolution. My court appointed attorney was advising me that I would be sentenced to 20 months in state jail. I contacted Mr. Knox and explained my case, he asked me to give him a day and he would call me back. I honestly ...wasnt expecting to hear back from him because I had no reason to believe that he would be able to make the 20 months jail sentence go away. After a few days he called me back and agreed to take my case. From the very beginning he assured me that I would not be getting any jail time, I had been told for almost a year that the 20 months state jail sentence wasnt going anywhere, so I was a little afraid to trust Mr. Knox. I am so grateful for all of his help, he called me with a update on my case almost weekly, he is always easy to reach day or night. To make a long story short, I was facing 20 months in jail for a felony fraud case in Dallas County, and Mr. Knox was able to get me probation as he told me he would do from the time I hired him. I would definitely recommend his law office for anyone who is facing jail time. Im so grateful for all he was able to do for me, Im now able to go on with my life without the fear of going to jail. Thank you so much !!!!!

Absolutely the BEST!!!

All I can say is WOW! Bill Knox made the impossible possible! I have a not so pretty criminal record and with a new probation violation, I was assured by Mr. Knox and his staff if I turned myself in and did the right thing he would make sure I was back home and sleeping in my own bed that same night...! I was very nervous and unsure but he and his staff put my mind at ease and gave me the comfort I needed to be confident in his abilities and he was true to his word. By far this man is the best of the BEST! I will recommend him to any and everyone I know in need of legal counsel. I felt hopeless when I walked into his office last Saturday by the time I left I felt I had someone who was going to fight for me and get me through this. BEST decision I ever made. Here we are not even a week after meeting in his office and I'm home and free! I don't have to look over my shoulder anymore and I can get on with my life and get busy living again! I Thank you and my family thanks you Mr. Bill Knox! You truly are the BEST! God bless you

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!
