Our guests today was Russell Knight, a family law attorney with the Law Office of Russell D. Knight.

Russell Knight was born in Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, Canada. His family moved to the United States in 1991.

Russell Knight attended Bradley University in Peoria, Illinois and graduated in 2000 with a Bachelor of Science in Business Computers Systems.

After two years working as a computer programmer for a Fortune 50 company, Russell Knight decided that he'd rather work with people than machines and he enrolled in the University of Illinois College of Law in Urbana, Illinois.

Upon graduating from the University of Illinois College of Law in 2006, Russell Knight began working for a small general practice law firm in Chicago, Illinois. The majority of the clientele at this law firm were Spanish speaking so Russell spent his free time during this period learning Spanish.

After three years of doing every imaginable hearing and pleading, in 2009, Russell opened The Law Office of Russell D. Knight.

Russell Knight has always focused on Family and Divorce law. Russell's interest in family law is proven by the hundreds of articles that Russell, personally, writes about the subject on this website.

Russell Knight enjoys learning new languages, running, and cooking in his spare time.
