The best possible counsel you can retain
I retained Lisa to represent me in my divorce which involved my two minor children. The outcome exceeded my expectations, not only from a legal standpoint but the relationship I developed with Lisa and her amazing staff. They were accessible and showed a genuine interest in all aspects of my case. Re...

Lisa McKnight Positive Review
Lisa McKnight and her team were extremely professional and knowledgeable about the subject of divorce, of which I knew nothing. She explained to me the timetable of events that would occur and then made sure that the events happened in the time frame that was suitable to me. Lisa provided continuou...
"I endorse this lawyer. Lisa is a well known divorce/family law litigator. She is a "club member" - that small select club of well known and well respected attorneys in our community. She is outstanding."
"Lisa Mcknight is widely respected among lawyers and is an outstanding family lawyer. I 100% endorse Lisa McKnight."
"Lisa's great reputation precedes her. She is an active member and leader in Texas Family Lawyers and is not to be trifled with. Do I know her from being on the other side? . Hell no . Do I look stupid? She's good and I've recommended her to others."
"I highly endorse Lisa McKnight. We have had a case opposite each other, and she worked hard to resolve tough issues. Lisa is a great negotiator who puts her client’s interests first."
"I spent an extended weekend with Lisa and a number of other lawyers, including some time with her in a small group. I'm glad I'm not facing her a lot in the courtroom. She is clearly very intelligent and fearless. If I needed representation, I wouldn't hesitate to call her."
"We had several cases against each other and she was very professional and I would hire her if I needed a divorce. Fortunately, I don't."
"I endorse this lawyer's work.It was my pleasure to meet with Lisa at the Rainmaker retreat in Las Vegas a couple of weeks ago. We talked for a period of time and I was impressed of her knowledge and understanding of Divorse, custody and family, her areas of expertise. We later shared practical and pragmatic tips that I will implement in my firm."
"Based on my experience handling cases against Lisa in the past, I can honestly say that, in my opinion, she is one of the top ten divorce attorneys in Dallas. Period. She is a force to be reckoned with in and out of the courtroom."
"Lisa is one of the smartest lawyers I've ever met. She is a talented litigator and can negotiate a great result for her clients. I highly recommend her for any kind of family law matter, but especially in a complex divorce or custody battle."
"Lisa is very knowledgeable and aggressive in contested child custody litigation. If my law firm has a referral for a Dallas child custody attorney, Lisa will get the call. I highly recommend Lisa and her team."
"Lisa is one of the best and brightest child custody lawyers in Dallas! She can cross-examine an opposing party like no other. She wins custody for her clients when many wouldn't even try."
