Futch/Grateful Witness

I appreciate Attorney Knox and his team for all the great work they did on my behalf. I was facing a very saddening experience and the coldest thing about it was that I never committed the crime. My life was upside down. I lost all hope and was very afraid of what lied ahead for me and my family and ...friends. His sons were very helpful to me just because they were raised to be noble citizens. His assistant Teresa was the most beautiful spirited person in this world that only GOD could send to anyone in their time of need. They allowed me to make payments and even then I didn’t have all the money sometimes & yet, they still worked my case. Amazing! I love them with everything that’s within me! Thank you. Thank you. & thank God for people like you.

Choose the best or get left in a mess!!! THANKS BILL

Well I received my charge and pronation in 2009, and by 2011 I hired Bill to represent me, on probation violations, I wish I had from the jump, as he informed me my agg assault with deadly weapon should have been dropped to a lesser charge, he got me reinstated MORE THAN ONCE, HE ALSO got me out of d...allas county for 3 days for my father's funeral, this man got me A BOND EVERY TIME I WENT to jail on a PROBATION VIOLATION.. HE KNOWS THE LAW, FORWARD AND BACKWARD, and if it's something he has not heard he WILL RESEARCH IT become familiar with it and take proper action.. he tells you exactly what he can do and what he thinks is possible you will not hear him say I CANT, OR NOT POSSIBLE, HE FIGHTS FOR HIS CLIENT..he will honestly give u the best advice as your legal advisor, he is well known in Frank Crawley court house. I ended up messing up running for years and really was just OVER probation, went in told my judge I want to be done with this case, he said are u obtaining mr. Knox or your ready today, I told him I'm ready, I BELIEVE JUST ON THE STRENGTH THAT HE WAS MY ATTORNEY I RECEIVED A LITTLE BREAK... YEA HES A LITTLE COSTLY, YOU WANT THE BEST U PAY FOR IT!!! Whats your freedom WORTH, forget that WHATS YOUR LIFE WORTH... I WILL RECOMMEND HIM FOREVER, AND USE HIM UNTIL HE NO LONGER PRATICE!!!

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.
