Everything Went Well
We had a very complicated case, and thankfully everything went well. Very nice and friendly and always willing to work with us. Payment plans are very flexible. Thank you so much for helping my son.
Sandra Yax
They both were great
I originally had called and spoke to Victor, who turned the case over to Gary.
Victor had always answered my calls when I would fret and had tons of questions. They both were great. The case ended up being dismissed fairly quickly. Hope we never have to use them again, but if so, we would in a heartbeat!
Mike P
These guys are extremely professional and awesome
Man, Gary and Victor and even the ladies up front are awesome! I came in with a huge problem for someone my age and health problems to where jail just really isn’t the way (not that it is for anyone lol). Upon setting up an appointment to meet a lawyer and get help, I met Gary and he was wonderful. Every other lawyer I’ve talked to at other firms was, “Pay me first, then I can give you examples and explanations and advice.” Gary wasn’t like that. He was sturdy and firm with me but knew how to calm me down from my worries. He told me what he can do and what he’s going to do for me, and even worked with me on a payment plan since, being a foster kid, I didn’t have a full-time job, but he and Victor made everything super easy, and bam, 5 months later, Gary was able to get all my charges dismissed and little to no court fees basically! These guys are extremely professional and awesome. Did I mention Gary had other clients in court that I got to see him get those dismissed as well? Yeah, these guys know what they’re doing, awesome people, amazing connections, and affordable prices/rates. I highly recommend if anyone needs help. Thank you guys for bringing me peace in my darkness!
Art Patton
I Truly Appreciate the Reliability and Dedication
Thank you all for your representation. I truly appreciate the reliability and dedication through challenging moments. All worked out beautifully the first time around, and at this time, I have no doubt that the outcome will be the same this second time around. Thank you, Gary, Victor, and staff.

Gary and Victor at Knowles Law Firm are truly phenomenal! Not only did they help my brother achieve a remarkable reduction in his sentence from 10 years to just 3, but they also demonstrated exceptional knowledge and expertise in their field. Their flexible payment options were a welcome bonus, making their services all the more accessible. I'm deeply grateful for their assistance and wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of outstanding legal defense. They definitely deserve five stars. Thank you, Knowles Law Firm.

So Thankful and Appreciative
So thankful and appreciative for Victor and Gary at Knowles Law Firm! I was seeking legal representation ASAP! From the beginning they have been communicative and ensured me of everything and overall were honest, and I felt safe. Legal matters can be stressful. Gary and Victor reassured me with confidence, and I was able to completely trust and believe in them with my legal matters. Ultimately, I got my case dismissed!! They are knowledgeable, professional, and are understanding of their clients by showing compassion. I highly would recommend them for your criminal defense matters and for legal representation in the entire valley!!
Rianna Kee
Top notch lawyers that truly represent
Mr. Knowles and Mr. Nelson are top notch lawyers that truly represent their clients. They believed in my son’s innocence and worked diligently for him, and my son was found not guilty. If it wasn’t for their expertise, I don’t know what would have happened. We will be forever grateful for their hard work.
Channon Berger
I Had a Great Experience
I had a great experience with Knowles Law Firm. From start to date, Victor Lopez has been incredibly helpful, communicative, and professional. He kept me informed throughout the entire initial process and always made sure my questions were answered, regardless of the time of day or day of week. At moments where I felt discouraged, he was there to provide reassurance. During the initial meet with attorney Gary Nielsen, we were immediately impressed by his confidence and preparation—it honestly felt like he had been working on the case for months. He was knowledgeable, focused, and truly dedicated to getting the best outcome possible. We’re looking forward to and feel confident that they will achieve a favorable outcome for us! If you’re looking for a reliable, relatable, and experienced law firm, I highly recommend Victor Lopez and the Knowles Law Firm.
Laura Whitehead
Complete Dismissal of My Case
I had an excellent experience working with Gary Nielsen. He was highly professional and took my case very seriously. From the beginning, our goal was a full dismissal, and although the prosecutors offered a plea deal, Gary continued to fight on my behalf. His persistence ultimately led to the complete dismissal of my case. I am extremely satisfied with the outcome and the quality of representation I received. Since I do not live in the area, I especially appreciated that Gary handled everything without requiring me to appear in court.
Antonio Gonzalez
They Did a Great Job
We were referred because they speak Spanish. They did a great job handling a criminal matter. We then had a personal injury case they took care of, and they recently set aside the criminal record from the original case. The team is thorough and informative and patient. Victor made us feel seen, and Anthony was direct and aggressive. ⭐
Mimi Gladiola
Tony and Victor Are the Best!

Professional and Courteous Experience
Had Gary Nielsen as our lawyer at this firm, and the experience as a whole was professional and courteous from start to finish. We were able to get a dismissal on our criminal case and were very happy with the results.
Cheyann Lozoya
Very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful
Mr. Knowles recently represented me and was very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. The strategy he employed successfully worked in my favor. Would highly recommend him and his firm.
Mike Beck
Thanks to Gary and Victor
I live in Massachusetts, and I didn’t know anything about Arizona. My husband had a big issue that can let him be in jail for years! I called at midnight Victor, and he respond, he help me with the extradition and all the case, day and night! I felt so vulnerable and lost, and Victor help me on the case for a whole year. Thanks to Gary and Victor we get excellent result, and I can be with me family this Christmas! Thank you so much Gary and Victor, God bless you! :)
Daihana Gonzalez
Had Great Representation
Had great representation from the Knowles firm. Got me out of jail without any bond. Got the charges dropped and would recommend to anyone looking for legal assistance.
Samuel Clark
Got the case dismissed
So there I was, being stupid, getting arrested… You know what my first thought was… I gotta call Victor… Turns out, I’m not stupid and it was probably the best move I could have made… While I will not lie, I am slightly biased as Victor is a buddy of mine, however this does not take away from his professionalism and him handling my case with the utmost care.
He provided me with an amazing lawyer, Brianna, and she was very communicative and ultimately got the case dismissed… (requiring me not to be stupid for a year)
Will use services again, hopefully not for stupid criminal stuff again.
Rhyan Brandt
I Felt Seen, Heard, and Supported
After months of lackluster legal representation with a different firm, I contacted Victor and Gary for help less than a month before my trial date. With minimal time to prepare or research my case, they were able to negotiate a much better plea arrangement than any previously offered. They were able to substantially reduce the penalties for the offense and were excellent on communication between the prosecution and myself. I had done a tremendous amount of my own research beforehand, which helped in understanding all of the intricacies of the law, but Victor and Gary thoroughly explained and addressed all of my concerns and questions, despite their seemingly inconsequential nature. I felt seen and heard and supported in the courtroom, which I truly appreciated.
K Beach
Couldn't Have Had a Better Experience
Couldn't possibly have had a better experience with Knowles Law Firm. They were super responsive and kept me up to date throughout the process, and in the end all charges were dropped! Thanks to Gary and the whole Knowles team who made it a painless experience. - John
John Hodgson
Amazing Firm, We Won Today
Amazing firm. I recommend Gary. He got me out of a situation I could not believe or even think I was getting out of, saved me from jail time, and most importantly saved me from feeling like I lost to the system. We won today, and it was all because of him. I will keep these guys in my back pocket for everything. I can’t forget about Victor. He made everything easy every step of the way. I respect all of them because they don’t see you for your money; they see you for who you are.
Jacob Cooley
Gary Got My Case Dismissed
On New Year's Eve, I found myself in a situation I thought would never happen. When I called Knowles Law Firm early on New Year's Day, Victor happily spoke with me and gave me valuable advice and offered to take on my case. It was such a relief, especially on a holiday. He talked me through everything and gave me comfort. Everyone that I spoke with at Knowles Law Firm—Victor, Kyle, Brianna, Brittney, and Gary—were all so polite, knowledgeable, and most importantly, friendly. Gary got my case dismissed in short order, and for that, I'm so thankful. Though I hope I never find myself in the need of an attorney again, I would not hesitate to call Knowles Law Firm. Thank you to everyone that helped me out!
Kelly Fleener
The result was better than we had hoped for
We worked with Tony and Victor on a charge against my son-in-law. We called them the morning he was taken in, and that afternoon Tony was in court representing him in Tucson! Their communication during the process was constant. They explained everything to us in terms we could understand and were always responsive when we had questions outside of our meeting times. Their years of experience in law enforcement were an enormous help with the outcome of his case. They made the process stress-free and as straightforward as possible. We were listened to, empathized with, and supported through the entire journey. While we never want to "need" a defense attorney, Tony, Victor, and the Knowles Law Firm staff were passionate and driven to fight for a positive outcome in our case. The result was better than we had hoped for, and I would highly recommend them to fight for you.
Ritsa McLerran
My First Choice Will Certainly Be This Firm
I am a healthcare professional and have been 24 years in practice. I was falsely accused and charged with a criminal offense, which I had not committed. Victor and Brianna were both highly knowledgeable and genuine. They believed in me and understood my situation. The final outcome was excellent and turned out to be exactly one of the two ways they had advised me of and anticipated. I hope I'll never face law enforcement in such a way again, but if I do, my first choice will certainly be this firm.
Pejman PourArbab, D.C.
I Felt I Was in Good Hands
The staff is amazing. From the beginning, Victor was very thorough with his questions and gave the impression that the firm is well versed in handling my case type. Brittany and Brianna were super helpful in guiding me every step of the way through the entire process up through and during my court proceeding. They have also been more than fair with me on my payment plan as I have gone through some financial struggles. I felt I was in good hands the whole time. I am beyond grateful for their assistance with my case! Thank you so much!
Raechel Stone
She got my case dismissed!
My attorney took the time to look into my history and saw that I was not a repeat offender.
Knowing this, she got my case dismissed!
I hope I never find myself in this position again.
However, if I do, I know who to call.
Thanks again!
Todd Alger
We Needed Help Immediately!
We needed help immediately! A relative was detained 6 days with no charges. The moment Knowles Law Firm contacted the court, they were released! Next there was trouble returning to work! Victor, Anne, and Attorney Brianna went to work and they are back to work! Thank you for your responsiveness both day and night! Your experience and commitment to resolving our issue is greatly appreciated!
Sharla Johnson
Ms. Bri Worked Her Magic
My initial impression was a bit hectic. I ended up switching my attorney due to Dominic leaving the firm, and the owner took over temporarily until they hired on a new attorney. When Brianna first called, I was a bit skeptical about all of the changes and continuation of my case, me thinking that this was not going to look well on our end. HOWEVER, I will say Ms. Bri worked her magic and I would highly recommend her! She had a way of diffusing my anxiety and answering all of my questions with no confusion. YOU ROCK, THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!
Surprise Jenkins
Always Felt Like I Had the Best People
The thing to remember when looking for a lawyer is it doesn't matter what the lawyer says; it's what they do for your situation that truly counts. Knowles will not tell you what you want to hear; they will tell you the reality of your situation and oftentimes protect you from yourself. My experience here was I always felt like I had the best people in my corner and never felt like I was doing it alone. I'm grateful for this law firm for being there during some rather scary times and would highly recommend them to anyone.
