Kenyetta Knight is an Alabama native who brings more than 23 years of legal experience to her practice. She began her career as a law librarian and Westlaw trainer before joining the Hollis Wright team in 2004. Starting as a receptionist, she advanced to a legal secretary and ultimately senior litigation paralegal role, which she held for approximately 20 years. This career path has given her a comprehensive understanding of the legal process, the complexities of litigation, and the importance of attentive client service. Drawing on decades of experience working alongside attorneys and supporting litigation, Kenyetta approaches her practice with a practical perspective, meticulous attention to detail, and compassion for clients facing life-changing circumstances.
Kenyetta earned her undergraduate degree in Political Science, with a minor in Business Administration, from Berea College, where she was named to the National Dean's List. She also studied East Asian Relations at Keimyung University in Daegu, South Korea. Kenyetta brings a global perspective and an appreciation for diverse cultures to her work. Her experience as a judicial intern for the Honorable Gino Brogdon, Sr., further strengthened her understanding of the judicial process.
Beyond her legal practice, Kenyetta is deeply committed to community service and philanthropy. She was honored with a service award from the Women's Lawyers Section of the Birmingham Bar Association in recognition of her contributions. Her community involvement includes serving her church, mentoring young people, volunteering with food banks and pantries, building homes through Habitat for Humanity, and supporting charitable initiatives for cancer survivors. Guided by compassion, perseverance, and a commitment to service, Kenyetta recognizes that every legal matter involves a person whose story, family, and future deserves care and consideration.
Kenyetta resides in Trussville, Alabama. Outside of her practice, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, playing board games, attending live theater and music performances, and fishing.
Her personal motto reflects the values she brings to her work and community: "Let my work speak through the lives I touch."
