trustworthy attorney knows his stuff

i used Bill and having never been in trouble before i was scared. He was attentive and everything he said would be apart of the process was exactly as he said. Even better after i signed plea agreement and was sent to probation dept of Dallas county the probation officer told me Bill Knox is a great... attorney. This compliment coming from a professional who is in court daily with many defense attys and she made it a point to tell me my choice in legal rep was good.

Amazing, Friendly, caring and quick acting!

Bill was amazing. Got out of jail in less than 24 hours and had my case dismissed that day. Real life saver and excellent communication to my spouse and parents the whole time. Even in the middle of the night. Would recommend Mr. Knox in a heartbeat and although I hope to never have a need to hire a ...criminal defense attorney if I did Mr Knox would be my first call.

GREAT WORK BILL

Bill Knox was retained to handle a criminal case for my brother-in-law. I must say he knows his stuff, and will fight hard for his clients. I had the great opportunity to sit in court and watch he and his team completely dismantle the prosecutor's case. A strong and thorough attorney. He is one of th...e best there is, and we all know the best don't come cheap. However, Bill will work with you as he did with our family. We are very pleased with the outcome in this matter. We won. My brother-in-law is a free man. Thank you BILL KNOX.

Bill Knox Came Through For Me

My case was reset (date pushed back) many times which was frustrating but at the conclusion of each court reset/review, I left court a free man, never disgraced to be walked out in handcuffs which isn't that uncommon. And yes, I had to pay lawyer fees but Bill was worth every dime. Good lawyers aren'...t cheap and cheap lawyers aren't good. The charges I faced were serious and the evidence was stacked tall against me (video footage to be exact). Honestly, at times I was doubtful, but in the end, Bill delivered what he promised. He is knowledgeable about the law and he has an extensive network within the legal system. In short, if your freedom is important to you, pay the fees, choose Bill Knox. I did! Thanks to Bill, all charges were reduced and I’m a free man.

He is amazing!

He is amazing! Mr. Knox personally answered his own phone at two in the morning on a weekend night and immediately got me out of jail. He represented me in court and worked very, very hard on my case and we came out great. If you're in trouble, he is the man to call.
