Firm Information
Overview
The law firm of Lisa E. McKnight, P.C., in Dallas, Texas, has provided highly personalized legal representation in divorce and all other family law matters for over 30 years.
Attorney McKnight is recognized as one of the top trial lawyers in Dallas for custody disputes and complex divorce. She handles the full spectrum of family law issues — from prenuptial agreements to post-divorce modifications — for a broad cross-section of clientele. She has proven her ability to produce positive outcomes in seemingly unwinnable family law cases.
While representing numerous physicians, spouses of physicians and other wealthy professionals, Ms. McKnight has become noted for obtaining exceptional results with complex divorces that involve extensive assets. She also has extensive experience representing individuals in less common (but more extreme) situations such as false allegations of sexual abuse or domestic violence, or helping a recovering alcoholic or drug abuser retain custody or visitation rights.
The team at Lisa E. McKnight, P.C., includes a head paralegal with nearly 10 years of experience and an assistant who spent 10 years as a paralegal for the Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) before joining our law firm.
Attorney McKnight is certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization as a specialist in family law, a distinction that is held by less than 1 percent of all lawyers in Texas.
Our clients appreciate having direct access to our highly qualified team throughout their case, as well as our honest and open approach. We help our clients set realistic expectations rather than delude them about what can be accomplished. This minimizes surprises and disappointment in a process that produces enough anxiety as it is.
We offer a 30-minute telephone consultation for $75 in which we can review the facts of your case, provide a straightforward assessment and recommend the best course of action.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
