Coker, Robb & Cannon — Serving Families with Compassion, Commitment, & Expertise Since 1998
For more than 25 years, Coker, Robb & Cannon, Family Lawyers has been a trusted name in family law throughout Denton, Collin, and Tarrant Counties. Founded in 1998, the firm opened its first office in Denton with a clear mission: to provide compassionate and comprehensive legal representation to individuals and families navigating the complexities of family law.
“Our journey started with a commitment to our community,” says Duane L. Coker, Founding Shareholder and Attorney of the firm. “We chose this region because of its strong sense of connection and shared values. We’re proud to be a part of it and honored to serve the families who live here.”
Today, with offices in Denton, Frisco, and Fort Worth, the firm has grown to meet the expanding needs of North Texas families, while remaining rooted in its founding principles of integrity, client service, and legal excellence. Their track record of success and client satisfaction has earned them repeated recognition, including being named Best Family Law Firm by Best of Denton County and listed in U.S. News – Best Law Firms.
A FOCUS ON THE CLIENT EXPERIENCE
What sets Coker, Robb & Cannon apart isn’t just their impressive list of credentials — though those are significant. Nearly 40% of their attorneys and an astounding 80% of their paralegals are Board Certified, placing them among the most highly qualified legal teams in Texas. But even more noteworthy is their client-centered approach.
“Communication is everything,” SeniorShareholder Jacqueline Cannon shares. “The most common complaint we hear from clients who’ve worked with other attorneys is that they felt ignored. That’s simply not acceptable here. We make it a priority to return phone calls, answer emails, and treat every client like a key member of our team.”
This philosophy is part of what they refer to as their “team approach,” where clients aren’t just case numbers — they’re active participants in the strategy and decisions that impact their futures. Attorneys and support staff collaborate closely to craft personalized legal solutions that reflect the goals, values, and well-being of each client and their family.
EXPERTISE IN ALL FAMILY LAW AREAS
From contested and uncontested divorce cases to child custody, support, and prenuptial agreements, the firm handles a wide array of family law matters. Their depth of experience means clients have access to seasoned guidance, whether they’re navigating a relatively amicable split or facing complex litigation involving children, property, or financial planning.
The team also provides probate services and has developed a reputation for helping clients make informed, forward-looking decisions during some of life’s most challenging transitions.
“Family law is more than just legal work — it’s about guiding people through emotional and life-altering events with care, intelligence, and compassion,” they say. “We understand the emotional stress our clients are under, and we do everything we can to ease that burden.”
EVOLUTION WITH PURPOSE
Though the firm began as a general practice, over time it became clear that narrowing their focus to family law and probate allowed them to offer a higher standard of service and expertise. This evolution has been intentional — and is ongoing.
“Continuous growth is key,” Coker notes. “We require twice the Continuing Legal Education (CLE) hours the State Bar mandates. We also actively encourage and support our attorneys and paralegals in becoming Board Certified. That commitment to excellence ensures that our team is always learning, always improving, and always ready to serve our clients at the highest level.”
LESSONS FROM THE FIELD
Through decades of work and countless cases, the firm has learned some universal truths. One of the most important? Managing expectations.
“Our role isn’t just to fight legal battles — it’s to help clients make thoughtful decisions that protect their family, their children, and their financial future,” Cannon explains. “We take the time to explain every possible option, every potential outcome, and the costs — both emotional and financial — of each path.”
By approaching cases with honesty and transparency, the firm helps clients feel empowered and prepared, not just legally, but emotionally and mentally as well.
WHY IT MATTERS
What Coker, Robb & Cannon love most about their work is the ability to make a positive impact during what is often the most difficult time in someone’s life.
“We’re here to reduce damage, not add to it,” Coker says. “Helping clients through challenges with dignity, empathy, and skill — that’s what drives us.”
