This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Compassionate, Empathetic, Creative and Logical

I was incredibly nervous about hiring an attorney since in my 43 years, I never needed to hire one... and I honestly was avoiding doing so for a long time. Mr. Knauss's confidence, straightforwardness, intelligence, and compassion were the perfect mix for me. He knows what he's doing. When I was frus...trated or angry about this long case, he listened and had me look at the realistic legal side of things as well as to continue to keep positive...which allowed us to persevere and achieve our legal goals in a timely manner., Throughout the entire judicial process, although intimidating, Mr. Knauss made me aware of the intricacies of the legal system I was not aware of and what possible outcomes could happen. Mr Knauss is very personable, knowledgeable and respectful outside of the courtroom...and exactly the same inside the courtroom as well. What you see is what you get...well worth time, money, and definitely works for you in every angle possible to win your case. I would hire again in a second if I needed to!

Trustworthy, Kind, and Communicative

Steven helped me through a challenging period, ending a business partnership that went sour quite fast. By the time I started working with his firm, conversations were no longer productive. He handled the negotiations in a wonderfully tactful manner and did an excellent job diffusing a tense situatio...n without giving in. I would recommend Steven in a heartbeat to anyone needing to deal with a difficult business relationship.

Extraordinary Service

I was incredibly nervous about hiring an attorney, and certainly I didn't think anyone would understand what I was experiencing. Mr. Knauss's confidence and compassion were the perfect mix for me. He knows what he's doing. He asked me the right questions and listened to me if I was upset, which not o...nly helped him understand my case, but also helped me feel better about the whole process. Mr. Knauss was very personable and respectful, and when we got to the courtroom, I realized he wasn't simply an attorney, he was my champion who made sure my rights were protected in every way..

This is your guy!

Mr. Knauss was absolutely wonderful. He always gave me an honest assessment of what to expect during the course of my case which lasted about 9 months. Most importantly, is that Steven delivered on all terms that were in question. Steven was accessible before, during, and after my case, and always to...ok extra time answering questions and concerns. I couldn't be happier with the end result. Steven argued well and professionally in the courtroom and I would highly recommend him to anyone going through the difficult situation. In my case, it was child support modification and the long overdue buy out of my half of the marital home. Thank you, Steven for all your help!

Only regret not finding him sooner

Steven helped me through a personal injury case involving a car accident. He was professional and responsive, and was good at explaining what was happening with my case and the options that I had. There were some complexities in dealing with both insurance companies that were involved. I was appre...ciative of his knowledge and of how he handled the situations that came up. He was quick to respond to my emails, and I always felt like things were being well taken care of. It lessened the stress of the situation considerably to have his involvement in the case. I hope to never have a problem requiring the service of an attorney again, but if I do Steven is the first guy I would call. I can recommend him unconditionally.
