About Coker, Robb & Cannon, Family Lawyers
Serving Denton, Collin & Tarrant County
Coker, Robb & Cannon, Family Lawyers opened in August 1998. We chose to become a part of the Denton County, and later Collin & Tarrant County communities, because we found these areas to be a region that continues to embrace the traditional values of community. We have offices in Denton, Frisco, and Fort Worth to serve these communities well.
We are proud to be a part of such a caring and connected society. As we’ve grown, we’ve expanded to help represent clients in Collin County and really enjoy helping clients in both counties with their family law cases. Our firm has had the pleasure and distinction of being named Best Family Law Firm by the Best of Denton County and "Best Law Firms" by U.S. News Best Lawyers.
Our main focus is on our clients. We strive to return your phone calls, answer your emails, and treat you like the important person that you are to our family law practice. This might sound like common sense, but we find that the number one complaint of clients who come to us after working with other attorneys is that they did not receive the customer service they felt they deserved and, in many cases, couldn’t even get someone to return their call. We do not have that problem at our office.
Contact us online or call (940) 293-2313 to schedule a consultation with a member of our team. We offer video consultations for your convenience so you don't have to come to us!

Shelby Hart is one of the many reasons to use this firm!! I had a very difficult case which involved children and finances, among other factors. When I first called the law firm I was unsure of what to expect, but was assured Shelby was the right lawyer for my case based on the specifics. They were not wrong. From day one, Shelby, was attentive, specific, empathetic, and worked tirelessly to make sure no detail was overlooked. He was very good at keeping me focused, even when emotions were high. I couldn't be happier with the outcome of my case and I know it was all due to Shelby's impeccable instincts and and experience. I would highly recommend Shelby to anyone. You won't be disappointed.

I recently had the privilege of working with Shelby for my divorce and custody proceedings, and I am absolutely delighted with the exceptional level of support and expertise he provided. Throughout the entire process, Shelby demonstrated unwavering professionalism and dedication. Shelby listened attentively to my concerns, fears, and wishes, ensuring that I felt heard and understood. He provided comprehensive guidance, addressing all my questions and explaining complex legal matters in a way that was easy to comprehend. The success I achieved in securing international custody of my children stands as a testament to Shelby's expertise and unwavering diligence. His remarkable ability to achieve such outcomes in such a difficult case is a true testament to his capabilities. He also displayed genuine care and empathy throughout the entire process. His compassion and understanding made me feel reassured. I would wholeheartedly recommend Shelby to anyone in need of a family lawyer.- Asif

STOP SEARCHING! Hire Coker, Robb & Cannon! Words will never express how I feel about all of the hard work they put in for me & my daughter. Sheba, Shelby, Rachel, & Kelly were PERFECT. In time I may find the words that convey to everyone how truly great this team is, but for now I will simply say if you need family law attorneys, HIRE THEM NOW!

When I first contacted this firm, I was unsure. I was unsure on many things. I had a set of unique circumstances where I needed to seek a change for the safety of my son but due to something that is somewhat new territory. Shelby was upfront w/ me about both the positive & the negative possible outcomes but let me tell you – Shelby (and Rachel) fought for us. There was NOT one moment in time that I felt ignored, dismissed or unimportant; Moreover, I have severe, high anxiety & rather than punish me for it, Shelby & Rachel were understanding, comforting, logical & proactive EVERY STEP of the way. It was like I showed up, threw everything I had on a table while being a sobbing mess – they looked at every piece, held my hand & told me it would be okay. The entire system is long & draining but when we got to our trial date, Shelby was ON FIRE. My faith in him never waivered but that day in court, when we were finally through, I could’ve flown. Shelby (of course w/ the help of his right hand, Rachel!) was absolutely in his element & he stood up for us in all the ways my spirit needed to protect my son. I have shed more tears than I will EVER admit during the entire process but even during my madness, Shelby & Rachel were kind, uplifting & our WARRIORS in the courtroom. When I did my phone set up for a consultation, I told them I needed someone aggressive. When you first talk with them, they are so sweet! You’ll think: okay, these are not aggressive or mean people – BUT when the time comes, you can bet your bottom dollar they GO TO WORK. I cannot thank Shelby & Rachel enough for the things they’ve helped my son & I with. They have kept my son SAFE!!!! There aren’t enough descriptive words in our vocabulary to accurately portray what they mean to me. If you want a damn good team – YOU WANT THEM. Thank you Shelby & Rachel! Dax & I love yall!!

Ms. Robb reviewed multiple documents of my case before the consultation and analyzed the case reasonably and honestly. She is knowledgeable, sympathetic, and shows strong ethic. She even sent me an email to summarize our consultation before signing the hiring agreement. I am so thankful to her for doing above and beyond. Waiting to see the progress.- Anonymous

Ashley Covert and Kelly recently helped my 88-year-old family member through a divorce. They are incredibly kind, thorough, and knowledgable attorneys. I highly recommend Ashley, Kelly and their team at Coker, Robb & Cannon. They made a difficult situation easy and stress-free.- Angie

Kelly was the second lawyer I had hired for my divorce matter after I had to terminate the first one. The difference was night and day - Kelly was always prepared, was willing to engage in strategy sessions, offered various unique approaches to problems, and was very easy to work with. I highly recommend her and Coker Legal in general.- Luke
