Gathered from public web pages, not from The Florida Bar, and not verified by us — each item links to where it came from. Name matches can be wrong for common names. Identity note: The name John Knowles is not unique, but the identified pages match the full name variant John Jefferson Knowles or the matching professional profile and corroborate the Office of the Public Defender, Tallahassee, and University of Florida law-school signals. No Florida Bar directory content was used as an attributed source.Wrong person, or want this removed? Tell us and we will take it down. Everything above is about John Jefferson Knowles.
