Mr. Knudson embarked on his legal journey after graduating from the University of Illinois in 1969 and initially working at Argonne National Laboratories, and thereafter studying law at Tulane University Law School.
At Tulane, Mr. Knudson was not only a dedicated, academically, successful student who served as a Judge on the Honors Moot Court, but he was also elected by his fellow law school classmates to serve as Senior Class President, graduating in 1973. Demonstrating his unparalleled dedication to becoming a lawyer, Mr. Knudson, in addition to his legal studies, worked his way through law school. After his first semester in law school, he was hired to serve as a Law Clerk assisting attorneys at a nationally, renowned personal injury law firm in New Orleans where he would go to work at the end of each day’s classes. That employment as a Law Clerk provided Mr. Knudson with extremely valuable, “real world” personal injury experience and learning at the law firm, supplementing the legal knowledge he was also obtaining from his legal education while attending law school.
