John McKnight
Divorce Attorney, Founder, McKnight Law
John McKnight is no stranger to divorce. Growing up, his parents divorced, and each would subsequently divorce again. He says it was these experiences that shaped his desire to help people facing divorce have a good outcome and the best possible post-divorce life.
McKnight, who is married, has been a divorce attorney for 21 years, both litigating cases and helping clients divorce via alternative dispute resolution, including mediation.
Running 5Ks, 10Ks and marathons are McKnight’s outlet. He says the races (and running, in general) helps him think clearly, listen better, and discover creative solutions.
We are so excited to call John a Divorced Girl Smiling trusted professional. Welcome to the network, John!
