Bill Knox ranks among the finest lawyers. I wholeheartedly recommend him without any doubt to friends, family, or anyone.

I had the privilege of working with Bill Knox recently, and I must say his legal expertise is truly exceptional. Bill's profound knowledge of criminal law, combined with his strategic approach, sets him apart as one of the best criminal lawyers in Texas. His dedication to his clients is evident in ev...ery step of the legal process. If you are asking who the best is, the answer is Bill Knox. I highly recommend Bill Knox for anyone seeking top-notch legal representation.

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!!!

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

Bill's expert knowledge helped me through the criminal courts and get my life back on track - So Thankful !

I made some horrible decisions at only age 23, misdemeanor and criminal arrests within a short time, drugs ruin lives! We hired Bill and he was beyond helpful, so knowledgeable, and I was so scared of my situation. I had so many court dates I couldn't keep track and Bill kept me on course always and ...with his help, there is a new, positive tomorrow for me at my own home not jail ; - ) So very thankful to Bill, he's so sharp.
