I recently had the pleasure of working with Lisa McKnight during a challenging two-year divorce process, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very beginning, Lisa and her team demonstrated an unwavering commitment to my case. Her professionalism and dedication made a significant difference, as well as the diligence of her team. I have spent plenty of money with a previous attorney, who was not able to handle the case appropriately, and Lisa took over my case and helped putting things on track. Unlike other attorneys Ive encountered, Lisa isnt a shark. She approaches her work with principles and integrity, ensuring that her clients feel supported and understood. Her experience and strategic insight helped me navigate the complexities of my situation, involving international travel and immigration laws, along with other matters involving my child. Lisa s team is just as dedicated as she is, providing prompt communication and thorough support throughout the process. I felt confident knowing I had someone in my corner who truly cared about my well-being. If you re looking for an attorney who will fight for you with compassion and professionalism, Lisa McKnight is the one to call, especially if you are dealing with abusive relationships and gaslighting situations. She has my heartfelt recommendation! Worth every penny.

Ms. McKnight and staff not only provided expert legal guidance but also showed genuine care and empathy throughout the entire process. Their strategic approach and attention to detail were instrumental in helping us achieve a successful outcome. I highly recommend Lisa to anyone in need of a family law attorney.

Going through any legal battle with an ex that involves your children and family law is not easy or a laughing matter. I was with my previous attorney and found that they couldnt properly handle the complexity of our case. My previous attorney also wasnt professional enough to admit that to me and made some questionable decisions that led me to find a new attorney. Lisa was recommended to me as well as a few others, but Lisa and her team were like finding new long lost family members. She listened to what had been happening and understood my needs and I decided she was the way to go. Lisa, Paul, Brenda and Jessica are all so kind and compassionate! My previous attorney would constantly have me sounding like a broken record by never listening and asking the same things over and over while charging me for those pointless repeat conversations. Lisa and her team remember those important conversations and make you feel like a human being and not just another dollar walking through the door. They are professional, there is nothing hidden and they keep communication flowing during the process. Lisa is tough and confident in the courtroom. She understands the law and advocates for you and your children for the best outcome! I saw several reviews from people who werent her clients on here, as they said so in their reviews. Its unfortunate for you guys who had to go up against Lisa because I would rather have her on my side than go up against her. She doesnt play games and does what everyone wants their lawyer to do. Thats stand up for them and shes the Best at that. This is my experience with Lisa and all of her staff and I would recommend her to anyone! I am beyond grateful and thankful that I was pointed in her direction and for all Lisa and her team stand for and do.

I have never seen a more inappropriate attorney practice law. She badgers witnesses and appears to delight in asking inappropriate questions despite them being successfully objected to just to damage credibility all While incorrectly spouting HIPAA laws that she clearly does not understand.

I wish I could give Lisa more than 5 stars, because she truly deserves it. She has helped my family tremendously in a time of crisis, and has helped to provide stability for the kids in the family. I highly recommend her: She s honest, dependable, efficient and effective, and a fierce advocate of those she represents. The amount of care she provides those she represents is unparalleled.

I would give Lisa 10000 stars if I was able. She is hands down the best lawyer in Dallas. I m a black father and was given bad legal advice by a previous lawyer that put me in a hole in my case. Lisa was able to bring my son home to me and worked with me every step of the way. She values honesty, integrity and I believe that is what makes her great. Thank you for helping me bring Jace home Lisa. This couldn t have happened without you. I will forever be grateful.

I will forever be grateful for Lisa McKnight and her staff. Lisa was the best advocate for our family and was 100% on our team. After a history of having bad legal representation hiring Lisa was exactly what we needed to bring my stepson home. Thank you so much for your hard work Lisa.

Lisa McKnight is a horrible attorney. Most the time she doesn t know what she s talking about. Her demeanor is hideous. And she tries to bargain with the witness on stand!! And no I have never and will never be a client, but court proceedings are broadcasted and we get to see how horrible you really are!

I have known and served alongside Tamika Jones-Abendroth in our service organization for over 5 years, as well as serving on the board with her during that time. She has the utmost respect and genuine concern for those she works with, in business as well as service. Her dual board certifications set her far above many in family law and she sits on the top of my list of referrals for clients.

I have recommended Tamika Jones Abendroth to a number of friends, clients, and colleagues. Being double board certified indicates the depth of her expertise. Tamika is an attorney I know I can depend on to be honest, to take my/my clients concerns seriously, and to provide the most ethical and professional representation. I highly endorse Tamika and will continue to reach out to her for any needs I may have and will continue to refer friends, clients and colleagues who need the best.

Tamika Jones Abendroth is well known and highly respected among her peers in the practice of family law. I have known Tamika professionally for several years. She is dual board certified (Family Law & Child Welfare Law) and therefore is very knowledgeable of the specific nuances in family law. It has been a pleasure working alongside Tamika in the courtroom as well as on various board of directors.

Lisa is an excellent lawyer. She is very sharp, she is amazing in a court hearing, knows very well how to prepare, how to get the judges respect, how to handle every witness and how to beat the opposing attorney. Lisa understands the minds of ex-spouses with all sorts of behavioral issues and knows how to handle them. Lisa managed to get my kids back to me after months of not seeing them, and I will be forever grateful to her for that. She is worth every dollar, as she gives you the best chance of getting the best results possible in your divorce case and in court. I can t thank her enough!!

If you look for a family trial attorney who can be tough with the your ex and eat the other attorney for breakfast, or just negotiate with them and get results, look no where else. I was involved in high complex lengthily child custody case and I lost, costing me hundreds of thousands of dollars. The moment I found Lisa, she requested my entire file and was prepared to discuss her strategy how to handle my case and she lowered my child support a lot, despite my high income. Lisas retainer was fair, despite her hourly $500, her billing was fair and cost me a whole lot less than my previous trial attorney . Her staff was very prompt to return calls and e mails and Lisa kept me informed of all the aspects of the case and discussed listened and explained everything in simple terms . Her many years of experience and her vast knowledge of Texas child custody laws and her attention to details, made sure she obtained me a favorable results and less than favorable results for my ex.

Very very disheartened to have called this morning and find out that consultations are $75 on the phone and $500 in person. This doesnt go to the retainer fee, either, this is separate. I know this is their practice and they can charge as they wish, but really ?!? What in the world!

My hearing took place on March 28, 2017. Lisa was amazing! I have hired other attorneys in the past to help me with my case but no one stood up for me and rocked like she did. When I walked out of the court room in the past I felt like I lost and my ex won again and again and again. Lisa stopped that cold and instead of playing defense at court Lisa was on the offense the whole time, and the Judge saw right through my ex s lies finally. My daughter and I would like to thank you. You are a true definition of a ROCK STAR attorney, and the staff at your office are awesome.

They use an application called MyCase which keeps their clients at arms length and out of communication. It fails viable communication between attorney and client. They bill for many nonessential attorney communications which do not further cases. I have found their recommendations for supporting professionals in psychology and other arenas to be unhelpful. As a parent in need of strong custody advocates without even trial encounters, they sucked. Lisa and the people she has hired are incompetent and unresourceful in the Dallas county family court system. I am sadly disappointed in the choice of this lawfirm after 13 months of no progress in my family custody situation.

We had a complex, high-asset divorce case that had been mishandled by a previous attorney, and had been allowed to drag on for over 4 years with no end in sight! The stress was unimaginable. When I conducted my research for a new attorney (I research EVERYTHING!), I contacted several attorneys. Most seemed more interested in the fees...and some of those retainer fees...OMG!! Lisa, Gene and their staff were amazing. Immediately after the initial consultation, which we did over the phone, I knew we had chosen the right attorney. And if I had any doubts (which I didnt), they would have been eliminated after we came in to meet with Lisa and Gene face to face. Talk about go-getter, no-nonsense high energy!! She had the whole staff working on this case, and the confidence she exuded was very reassuring. We spent hours going over every detail. Watching her work was like watching one of those scripted high-profile lawyer shows on TV, only this was real life. Shed decide that expert appraisers were needed for this asset or that asset and shed get them on the phone right then and there. She asked questions that had not been asked previously; questions that only come from experience. And they were questions that made a difference. Her and Gene worked in tandem - she would start a sentence and he would finish it. Or she would work on one aspect of the case and he would work on another. While they were working, their paralegals were right in sync, moving around and between them, handing them copies of this or that or printing off whatever was needed so they never missed a beat. If so much personal information hadnt been discussed I would love to have videoed the whole scene. And when we went to trial - oh man! What I can tell you is that she was surgical! Gene was there, her lead paralegal was there and it was ON!! Due to the complexity of the case, the trial lasted for hours. Every detail was covered and in the end the judge had a clear, and most importantly, an ACCURATE picture of the facts and the decision was fair and even - which was the goal from the onset 5 years before. If youre researching family law attorneys, the law firm of Lisa McKnight is the way to go. Lisa is well respected in the courts and has the expertise to get the job done in a professional manner. She only practices family law as opposed to some other attorneys who also do family law. Trust me, it makes a big difference!
