    “this is the place to go!”
    Shelby Hart was my lawyer during my divorce. During one of the hardest parts of my life, Shelby was nothing short of kind and professional. He was supportive and honest with me throughout the entire process, and always made me feel comfortable/well informed of every option available to me. Everyone at Coker Legal was easy to talk to and easy to trust. I'm so glad that I was recommended to Coker, and lucky enough to have Shelby as my lawyer. If you're in need of a compassionate law firm/lawyer, this is the place to go!
    - Kristie H.
    “Shelby is an amazing lawyer!”
    Shelby is an amazing lawyer! You are in good hands with him. He was very tentative to my wants/needs and got me the justification I was seeking. Thank you!
    - Lexy C.
    “I will recommend Shelby to anyone”
    I can't say enough good things about Shelby. He is thorough, bright, diligent, and all-around excellent at what he does. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable in his field, but he is also kind and sympathetic. He listened to my concerns and hopes for the future while also considering the facts and fighting hard with my best interest in mind. I appreciated that he even followed-up with me after everything was said and done just to make sure I was settling in to my new normal. I will recommend Shelby to anyone who may find themselves in this tough position. He helped me every step of the way.
    - Tessa D.
    “5 out of 5”

    - Virginia L.
    “She is truly amazing”
    Malorie and Toya thank you from the bottom of my heart for all the time spent and hard work you put into getting my case resolved. I will never be able to put into words how thankful I was and still am to have had y'all by my side!! If you are looking for someone to represent you I highly recommend Malorie Crosley!! She is truly amazing.
    - Patrice C.
    “I would highly recommend Shelby to anyone.”

    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.

    - Jason
    “Informative and Compassionate”
    Kelly Robb was great to work with. She communicated effectively and ensured that I understood every step in the process and how decisions would impact the outcome. She help make a very stressful process go smoothly and conducted herself with compassion and integrity.
    - Nicole
    “The Best Lawyer for a time in your life when you need the truth!”
    I had a nasty divorce going with my ex-wife who was using one of the High Power Dallas Lawyers that was intent on making things difficult and costing both of us most of the money we were fighting over. Duane was able to calm me down and came up with an idea for the settlement that not only saved me and the ex money, but actually made his fees LESS EXPENSIVE!!! You will not hear of that many times with any lawyer. I would recommend him for a simple divorce or a complex one with all of the circumstances that always make things difficult. He just has a way of working things out with all parties that make so much sense the case gets settled and everyone gets what they want.
    - Jay N.

  • What are the advantages of hiring a local lawyer in The Colony?

    By hiring a lawyer in your area, rather than a lawyer from an impersonal corporate law firm in Dallas, you get the benefit of working with someone who genuinely cares about your well-being because they’re a local. You’ll see Texas’s famous hospitality when you work with us. Plus, you’ll appreciate our knowledge of local courts and courtroom procedures, as well as local attorneys from other law firms who might represent your spouse.

  • What are some alternative dispute resolution options for family law matters?
    Mediation is the most common form of alternative dispute resolution for family law conflicts and divorces. It involves sitting down with a neutral third-party mediator who helps steer the conversation and provide legal clarity. The mediator does not take sides, though, and cannot order you and your spouse what to do. Mediation is so effective that many family law courts require it before allowing a couple’s divorce to proceed to trial.
