Rick Robertson

Rick Robertson’s family law clients are high net-worth individuals, A-level executives, pro athletes, entertainers and their spouses, but he never mentions their names and actions. His policy and that of KoonsFuller, P.C. Family Law is one of discretion. He respects the privacy of his clients above all else.

Mr. Robertson came to the family law firm after many years with the largest law firm in McKinney, Texas. He was raised in Austin and attended the University of Texas for both his undergraduate and law degrees.

A Fellow in the Texas Bar Foundation and the American Bar Foundation, he also serves on the board of directors of the Texas Academy of Family Law Specialists.

Rick Robertson has written articles and made presentations on family law issues to local, state and national bar associations.

In 2011 he was the first family attorney to appear on the cover of Super Lawyers. His article, written by Paul Sweeney covered Family Law in the Age of Facebook. An excerpt is included here: “Call her Ms. Smith. She was single, fun and interested in men, she declared on her Facebook profile. Photographs on her page depicted her canoodling with her latest boyfriend at a Dallas cocktail lounge. A Budweiser sign is prominently displayed overhead.

But for Rick Robertson, the family law attorney who was representing her soon-to-be ex-husband in a divorce and child-custody dispute, Ms. Smith’s Facebook postings afforded a Perry Mason moment.

His peers recognize his expertise in the use of electronic evidence and the role of social media in the divorce process. In 2007, he won the award for the best paper written for presentation to legal groups by the State Bar of Texas, for his effective paper on the use of electronic evidence.
