Your Advisor. Your Coach. Your Voice in Court.
Board-Certified Specialist in Family Law
The law firm of Lisa E McKnight, P.C., is known for taking tough cases and getting results. We practice exclusively in family law, with a record of both practical solutions and aggressive courtroom representation for contested divorce and custody.
Lisa McKnight is recognized as one of the top trial lawyers in Dallas for custody disputes and complex divorce. She is a board-certified family law specialist with nearly two decades of experience in the negotiation and litigation of these difficult issues. She also handles the full spectrum of family law matters, from prenuptial agreements to post-divorce modifications.
We Take Care of Our Clients
We realize that divorce can be daunting — the impact on your kids, the prospect of a legal battle, the uncertainty about the future. For many clients, the change in their accustomed standard of living is a rude awakening.
Before you set foot in court or pull up to the negotiation table, Lisa McKnight will develop a specific case plan. She sits down with you at the beginning of your divorce or child custody case to address your anxieties, identify your goals and help you form a realistic but positive picture of life after divorce. She is not just your lawyer but a "life coach" who will give you straight advice and concrete steps to position yourself for the most favorable outcome.
You will never be in the dark about your case. You will get a copy of every piece of paper, every phone call or e-mail, and Ms. McKnight will call you with updates.

We Relish Challenging Cases
Lisa McKnight has handled high-asset divorce cases involving tangled finances or spousal shenanigans. She welcomes parents with "bad facts" that would seem to disqualify them from custody. She has resolved international custody kidnappings. She is the shrewd strategist and aggressive trial lawyer who can level the playing field for you.
One key to our success is sizing up clients through the eyes of opposing counsel. Ms. McKnight will identify the weaknesses of your case and give you "jobs" to do to improve your bargaining position and make a favorable impression in court.
Let's Talk About Your Situation ... And a Brighter Future
You need answers. You need reassurance that it's going to be okay. You want to talk to someone right away. In a initial consultation over the phone, Lisa McKnight will listen to your story and quote you a fee. She will arrange a time in the very near future to discuss your family law issue in depth.
We can provide full-service representation with frequent heads-together sessions or a budget plan that fits your current financial picture. Either way, our rates are substantially lower than the big firms that handle complex contested cases. We represent men and women in Dallas and surrounding communities of Dallas County and adjoining jurisdictions of Texas.
The Dallas Bar Association has twice crowned us with its "Coolest Office" award. We practice in a renovated 1910-era house in east Dallas that provides a calming atmosphere for the stressful subjects of divorce, custody, property and finances.
