Great experience

I received 2 counts of DUI in Sacramento. David was able to get one count dropped, he appeared on my behalf in court, and the penalties I received were so much better than I could have hoped for. I really could not have asked for a better resolution. He is extremely affordable and he and his staff ar...e very accessible and responsive. I highly recommend this attorney.

NO DUI

I would recommend the Law Office of David Knoll beause they are profession and really worked hard to get the best possible outcome for my case. They always took my calls and all my questions and kept me up to date on my case. I was able to get my drug and alcohol DUI to a wet and reckless and I did n...ot lose my license at all! I am very pleased with the results.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
