Professional and Competent

I have been a client of Mr. McKnight on more than one occasion. He helped my family and I navigate some rough waters. His knowledge of Personal Injury and our legal community is remarkable. If you are looking for an attorney who will communicate with his client and be a relentless advocate, then I st...rongly recommend Mr. McKnight.

Exceptional Attorney

I had a car accident and insurance company wanted to just settle with me but I was referred to Mr McKnight by a friend for consultation. He is very professional, knowledgeable and patient in explaining my legal standing. Finally I hired him to fight for my case. Not only he got me a bigger settlement.... Throughout the whole process I did not have to do anything and totally worry free. I recommend highly Mr. McKnight to anyone who has any legal needs.

Great advice

I have worked with Mr. McKnight since the late 1980s on many real estate and business contracts. His advice has always been outstanding! He has my highest possible recommendation!

Highest level of legal expertise and professionalism

In December of 2012, I was involved in an automobile accident which resulted in a shoulder injury that required surgery. I was parked off the roadway when my vehicle was hit by a distracted driver. The insurance company offered me $150.00 to settle my case. That’s when I decided to seek legal counsel... from the law firm of McKnight, McKnight, McKnight & McKnight. They provided me with the highest level of legal expertise and professionalism anyone could ask for. My phone calls and emails were always promptly responded to, and I was kept informed throughout the entire process. I really appreciate everything Cleve McKnight did for me in reaching a favorable settlement without having to go through a long, drawn out court battle. I would recommend Cleve McKnight to anyone who needed a personal injury attorney.
