An Attorney Who Fights for You With Integrity and Respect

I cannot recommend Colin highly enough to anyone facing the difficult decision of hiring a family law attorney. From the very beginning, Colin treated me with kindness, respect, and compassion during one of the hardest times of my life. He made me feel seen not only as his client, but as a person nav...igating an incredibly emotional process. Colin took the time to educate me on what I was asking for, what was realistic, and what the law allowed. Because of that, I felt informed and confident in every decision I made. He never made me feel judged, rushed, or “stupid” for asking questions. Instead, he explained every step clearly and patiently, always ensuring I understood what was happening and why. In the courtroom, Colin was confident, prepared, and unwavering. He fought for me when I didn’t have the strength to fight for myself. At the same time, he respected my desire to be fair and to follow the law, helping me reach an outcome that aligned with both my values and my needs. Thanks to his guidance, I was able to move through my divorce with my dignity and morals intact. His staff was equally supportive and helpful, reinforcing my belief that Colin and his team genuinely work for the best interests of their clients and their families. Divorce is never easy, but Colin made the process more manageable and far less overwhelming. If you are looking for a family law attorney who will advocate for you, support you, and truly care about your well-being, I wholeheartedly recommend Colin.

Phenomenal, Patient, and Dedicated

Counsel Colin Koons is without a doubt, an excellent attorney. His dedication to his clients is unwavering and he ensures that your best interests are the top priority. When initially choosing an attorney, I knew I wanted someone who would fight for my son's best interests. Colin Koons has the experi...ence of a GAL, which gives him a special edge to his caseload. Colin Koons is someone who will work for you constantly, ensure that you are never "in the dark" during the process, and explains everything in such great detail. The other great thing about Colin Koons is that he is very realistic and very upfront about how to handle situations that may arise. There will be times where you may find yourself hysterically calling seeking the advice of Counsel, and even if he is busy when you initially call? He will ALWAYS reach out to return your call or messages. He is very consistent and very dedicated to his clients. The firm itself has phenomenal options for keeping in touch. If you have the ability, you can download the Clio app, you can email Counsel Koons, and you can call anytime. The paralegals are great to ensure any messages received are passed onto Colin in a timely manner. The facility is very inviting and the paralegals/staff of Cox and Koons provide excellent connections the minute you speak on the phone or walk through the door. Truly, this is an attorney and firm that cares about you, your case, and your family. Although my son is younger, I know that I will continue to use Colin Koons for the remainder of my son's minor years as needed. I am thankful that I was able to obtain Colin Koons as I strongly believe that my case would have not ended in my favor. If you want an attorney who will go the extra mile in all they do? Colin Koons is the one. If you want an attorney who will ensure that your best interests are considered? Colin Koons is the one. If you want an attorney who will dedicate themselves to your case and your family? Colin Koons is the one. If you want an attorney who is not going to just sugarcoat it and who is not going to keep you in the dark? Colin Koons is the one. If you want someone who is going to be completely upfront and honest, who is going to keep you balanced while showing the HIGHEST level of patience and respect? COLIN KOONS IS THE ONE YOU WANT.

Rockstar Family Lawyer!!

Colin came on my case during a time when I really needed him. I’m from out of state and was unable to attend a hearing. In short order he got the hearing re-scheduled and saved me from a warrant for my arrest. Now today we had our hearing. I had no idea what to expect from the hearing as we did not h...ave a chance to prepare. Turns out it was just me that was not prepared, he was completely prepared and made it the most productive hearing in my 18years of dealing with this case. This is the most competent family lawyer I have ever had the pleasure to work with.
