Ms. Mary literally saved my family. Protected my family. Fought fiercely for my family. No matter what obstacle was thrown in our way, she was there. ALWAYS there, and never stopped fighting for my family and myself. She is a fighter, she's intelligent beyond belief, incredibly reliable, and the most selfless woman I've ever met. My children are safe from a drug filled, abusive individual and their family. The children are protected for the rest of their lives and will never have to remain in fear or ever be hurt by their abusers anymore. As long as I live, I will forever be grateful, and I will never stop being grateful to have her as my attorney. She has literally changed our lives, all for the better!

I have had the blessing of working with Mary D. McKnight for over 4 years, only due to my ex's continuous actions requiring enforcement and further litigation. And, although she wasn't my initial attorney, once trial was inevitable, she took on the case, even working with my previous attorney from another firm to ensure the best outcome for my sons and I. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking the best attorney in family law. She is unafraid and the most experienced attorney in the area. I am extremely thankful for her and her team's continued efforts on my children and I's behalf.

Mary McKnight and I met at the lowest point in my life, recommended highly by a colleague attorney that got thrown off my case for BS from my ex. As soon as we met (just weeks after the loss of her own husband) she reviewed my case looked up at me and smiled a smile that I would grow to look forward to for years. My ex kept us in court for ever and Mary stepped up to bat each time even shortly after a fall that got her a shiny new hip, nothing for between her and arguing for the utmost safety for my son. I would most definitely send everyone her direction and have, that need a warrior willing to step up and defend her clients to the hilt.

I can not say enough good things about Mary McKnight! She fought fiercely for my son and I through a very complicated divorce that included protecting our assets and helping to sell our large family business. With her efforts we were able to turn a potentially tragic family and financial situation into a good outcome for all. I am thankful every day for Mary McKnight!

When my ex- husband filed for divorce and filed for sole custody I felt lost in the legal world. Thanks to the Lord, I found Mary. She fought for me every day. It was a painful and difficult process to divorce and fight for custody but Mary made it easier. She told me exactly what to do and never gave up when things got hard. I love this woman, she's simply the best.

Throughout a 2yr custody battle for primary residence of my stepdaughter, Mary was very prompt, precise and patient in working with us even through the loss of her husband. She was very much involved in every step of the way, even helping us see positive when we'd hear so much negative. Mary stands for what she believes is the best interest and fights even harder. I would most definitely recommend Mary to anyone else needing help, she will stick with you and fight it out.

I hired Mary McKnight to handle my case and protect my child's best interest and mine. The case was difficult and the opposing side had a history of family violence, abuse, stealing the minor child, not supporting minor child, and on-going non-compliances that never seemed to stop. She was paid over $8,000 and never showed up to the final trial. She sent another attorney in her place to the final trial who had just barely passed the bar, was not prepared at all, had no idea how to handle the very experienced opposing counsel, and was just not capable of handling such a difficult case. Mary McKnight claimed to be in charge and put it in writing that she herself would handle my case at final trial. Most of the issues were never heard at final trial on our court date, because Mary McKnight was not there. Her last minute replacement had no idea how to regulate the time properly, a motion to continue was never filed, and Mary McKnight did nothing to protect her client or the minor child. There was an enormous imbalance of testimony creating a completely erred ruling. Mary McKnight did nothing to continue the hearing another day or clean up the mess created by her not showing up in court on trial day. After an $80,000 appeal and years invested in correcting this attorney's failure to put her client first and adhere to the "Lawyers Creed," I must share this horrible experience. My child has been through hell over the years all because Mary McKnight failed to show up and do her job, which was put her client and the child's needs first. Please seek out an attorney who cares about people and their children.

I was referred to Mary 6-7 years prior to actually needing her services. At that time I thought WOW, what a nice, honest person. After she listened to my situation, she said I wasn't ready for her services but that she would be here, if, & or when, I needed her. As it turned out, I did need her services. She was there for me every step of the way. The opposing party fought, but she fought harder. I consider her not only an excellent attorney but a wonderful friend. I would highly recommend Mary!!!

When your hope is fading, but you still feel righteous and ready to stand up for yourself and your family, Mary McKnight is the one who will be by your side no matter what. Mary McKnight is superb in all areas you can wish for your attorney to be. She is exceptionally knowledgeable, outstanding in the courtroom with her quick and pointed responses, very sensible, wise, and, most importantly, brave. Nobody can intimidate her in the courtroom! Mary McKnight picked up my case when no other attorney would dare to do so. I met Mary only 10 days before my final hearing. Nobody, but Mary agreed to step up for me. Mary McKnight said to me, “I can’t promise anything, but I’ll do my best” and she did! With only 10 days of preparation, Mary McKnight was able to put to the end a three-year-old lawsuit by disproving the accusations accumulated throughout those years, restored my reputation and, most importantly, gave peace of mind to my children and me. I cannot imagine what our life would be like now if Mary was not my attorney. It is a gift to encounter Mary McKnight in life, especially when sensitive issues, such as children and family, are involved. You can fully trust her support and advice: she speaks from the heart and gives the wisest advices. Those qualities are rare in the legal practice world, and, thus, priceless for clients. Once again, I was truly blessed with Mary McKnight to be my attorney and my mentor.

Ms. McKnight is by far the best attorney I know. From the time I met her and she assisted me in my case, I knew I was in very capable hands. She is warm, caring, thoughtful and way smart!! She explained the whole legal process to me and walked me through a very difficult time. I highly recommend her.

I have never met a more caring or concerned attorney. She immediately took my case, (grandparent) and has given attention to even the smallest of details to make sure my grandson is taken care of properly. From the start, you will know she cares for the kids and takes their best interest to heart, just as she would her own.
