Erica Nicolle Knauf Santos

Erica has been our attorney for over 5 years through an incredibly challenging parenting plan/custody matter. She listens, and remembers and is highly knowledgeable, responsive, and highly respected by the courts and judges. She's witty, well spoken, throughout as well as to the point which judges ...take notice of! This matters! She has guided us and fought incredibly hard to keep our child safe in an extremely high conflict situation. Our child has flourished because of the incredible effort, time, energy, and true gift Mrs. Santos has. She's been a literal earth angel to us and we would recommend her to anyone seeking legal counsel. She's been by our side through a full trial and countless motions since and we are so very pleased with the level of service and support she has given to our family. We honestly don't know where we'd be without her. We would give her 10 stars if we could! She is the absolute best in her field! Forever grateful to the expertise and professionalism and her impeccable work on our case. Thank you, Mrs. Santos!

Erica represented me during both my divorce and domestic violence protection order hearings. She and her staff never treated me like I was a means to the bottom line: they were empathetic human beings who understood what I was going through and made me feel supported. Erica and her team ferociously d...efended me and worked to protect me and my son. Erica is so experienced she always seemed to be one step ahead of the game, and she was able to accurately predict the outcome of different choices, which was extremely helpful in coming to some difficult conclusions. She was completely transparent with me the entire experience which reduced the number of surprises we had along the way, in turn reducing my anxiety. I can't imagine having done this with any other lawyer, and I'm so thankful to the entire Knauf Santos team for their consistency, reliability, and thoughtful care of my family.

Erica was able to see where I needed to go before I did. I wish I would have listened to her advice initially because she was right on with her thoughts and the direction I needed to go. Fair priced and wonderful!!! Completed my entire divorce and dealt with some very complicated issues including a...ddiction and autism.

Hired Erica in 2012 based upon recommendations of family friends that are also family law attorneys. They did not know Erica, but had heard really good things about her from colleagues. My friends (who knew both my ex and myself and would not represent either of us) actually gave me four names, whi...ch led me to pick Erica. Erica listened to my concerns and priorities, and helped me understand what she could and couldn't do. She was consistently my advocate during the process. We did not win every point when the judge made his decision, but she prepared our position to the best advantage. I have remained connected with Erica over the past seven years, and have had cause to consult with her a time or two since the divorce to resolve parenting and decree issues. I recommend Erica extremely highly. If you are willing to listen to her advice and counsel as well as she listens to your issues and priorities, she will fight to get you the best possible outcome.

Erica handled my divorce which was very complex and lengthly. She always had my best interest and my daughter's best interest at heart. She took very good care of us and I always felt I had the best representation. My ex-husband's attorney didn't have a chance! Thanks Erica - you are an amazing at...torney!
