Experience
Our founding partner, Charles Robertson, began practicing family law in 1969. He has argued cases before the Texas Supreme Court that have changed the face of family law in Texas. His law school classmate, Tom Railsback, joined him after returning from his service in the United States Air Force, including a tour in Vietnam. He became a partner in 1992.

Together we offer over 70 years of legal experience in divorce and family law.

Accomplishments
We get excellent results for our clients. We are strong negotiators and forceful litigators who will work tenaciously to achieve the best possible result for you. Charles Robertson has argued four cases before the Texas Supreme Court, three of which significantly changed the law in Texas. As a member of the Family Law Council of the State Bar of Texas, he participated in drafting changes to the Texas Family Code. He took and passed the first family law specialization exam in 1975 and, thereafter, was appointed the chairman of the commission that drafted and graded the specialization exam for Texas attorneys and judges. He has been certified as a specialist in family law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization for more than thirty years. He was also one of the first attorneys to become qualified as a divorce arbitrator in North Texas. Tom Railsback has been board certified in family law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization since 1982, has been a mediator for over fifteen years, and is qualified to practice collaborative law. Both of our partners have written legal articles and lectured widely in matters of divorce and family law.

Approach
We are settlement-oriented lawyers who resolve 90 percent of our cases out of court. We believe crafting a satisfactory settlement for our clients is the best alternative for all parties in the vast majority of cases. When necessary, however, we put our superior courtroom skills to work for you. Our reputation for getting results at trial is one of the factors that encourages opposing counsel to agree to fair settlements.

Affordability
We strive to provide our services in the most cost-effective manner possible. Settling cases out of court is one of the primary ways to keep our fees at a reasonable level. We also assign each task to a qualified person who can accomplish it at the lowest hourly rate. The result? Our fees are reasonable and competitive. It is not unusual for our clients to pay a third of what the competition charges and still achieve better results.
