Matthew Curran Knauss

Currently, my case is being looked after by a public criminal attorney(free of cost). While my assigned attorney is good, suggestions by friends, online forums etc made me want to look for a private criminal attorney. As part of shopping for one, I met Mathew and I found him very honest at everythin...g he talked. After listening to my whole case, he is the only attorney who suggested, my public defender attorney is doing good and continue with that attorney and not to waste money. Gave some good suggestions as well. I thank him for all the valuable time and free advise he gave me. Honesty, Ethics and not being money minded in a lawyer is hard to find these days. Very cordial and patient person. I suggest whole heatedly, anyone considering hiring a criminal attorney, should certainly meet Mathew. I hardly write any reviews, but I felt like I should in this matter. I wish all those going through problems good luck and peace of mind.

Mr. Matthew Knauss, Of Counsel at Cowan Kirk Kattenhorn I had to the pleasure to be assisted by Mr. Knauss in my matter. I was overwhelmed, daunted and confused with the possible outcomes of the charge that I incurred as a result of bad judgment. We all make mistakes and we are already feeling ...awful as a result of the consequences. Mr. Knauss made the process very clear, easy and straight. He did not over-promise nor did he add to my worries of how bad this could all end up. Instead, he focused on the best possible outcome and the result ended up being exceedingly better than we expected. He is very responsive, reliable and flexible to accommodate schedules changes due to court systems, personal life changes or ad-hoc surprises that surely always show up. Mr. Knauss is highly competent and easy to work with. I learned a great deal from him. He has my highest recommendation.Mr. Matthew Knauss, Of Counsel at Cowan Kirk Kattenhorn I had to the pleasure to be assisted by Mr. Knauss in my matter.

Matthew was very kind and professional and best of all EFFECTIVE in getting my case dismissed 100%. I highly recommend Matthew for his expertise and strong sense of commitment to his case. I appreciated that he listened and took the time to understand my side of the story, and was totally on my side ...throughout this whole painful ordeal. I owe Matthew a lot more than his fee: peace of mind and a sense of vindication that money cannot buy. If you are wrongfully charged or just looking for someone to fight on your side, CALL MATTHEW!!!

Matthew was very diligent in his approach to my case. He made sure to listen to my concerns and answer all my questions before deciding on the next steps he would take in my case. I was impressed by his knowledge of the system, compassion towards my situation, and willingness to go the extra mile to ...help me obtain the best possible outcome. Matthew’s staff responded to requests promptly and were kind, courteous, and respectful during all my interactions. I highly recommend Matthew Knauss.

About 10 mos. ago I was arrested for suspicion of DUI in Bellevue and found myself in a situation I'd never been in before and had no clue where to start, but I knew I needed help fast! I made appts. with three different lawyers, and after interviewing Matt, I had no doubt in my mind he was who I wa...nted to hire for the job. From that day forward I've had zero regrets! From the beginning, he informed me of the entire process and what the possible outcomes might be - I love that he didn't sugar coat anything & was totally honest that my case could go either way, but he would be there to guide me through the complicated DUI process and do his best to make things go in my favor. It was long & stressful road, but Matt was always there to put me at ease & reduce my stress level, he kept me informed every step of the way, he was always available to answer my questions & bring clarity to things I didn't understand. I was always amazed, knowing how busy he was, that he made me feel like I was his only client - that's how dedicated & caring he is! Matt's court performance and final defense was stellar and I trusted him 100% even though I still wasn't sure what the outcome would be that day...my case may not have turned out entirely as I wanted it to, but in the end I was content knowing I had paid for peace of mind through a complicated, stressful experience & there was no one else I'd rather have by side than Matt. If you or a friend find yourself in a similar situation, I would HIGHLY recommend you contact Matt. Thanks, Matt - you rock!
