Robert Daniel Franks

When I realized divorce was going to be unavoidable, I worried that I would get a back-seat roll as a parent. I wanted to be as involved as a dad as I could have been married. I sat down with Robert and he helped me chart a path to achieve this goal. We succeeded. I have not met a dad with an arr...angement I would prefer over my own. Achieving this was not easy and as you can imagine it was, and still is, highly contested. I have relied on Robert for guidance since the entering of the divorce some time ago. It is so valuable to me that I know he is always in my corner ready to guide me when I need. Most recently Robert defended my role as a father against a petition to modify suite brought by my ex. The process was intimidating and stressful for me. Throughout the process leading up to and during trial, Robert remained calm, diligent, and professional. At trial it was clear to me he was more prepared, smarter, and simply a better attorney. Opposing counsel was a seasoned attorney with an intimidating record. This is a situation where more than one person told me, “oh that’s her attorney, you are going to lose, they’re the best” or “you should hire Y, they beat them before”. I trusted Robert and I am glad I did. My agreement is still intact. These results were not without a significant financial cost. However, Robert was successful at managing the case in a cost-effective way. He was always clear with me about the financial component. After the trial I was particularly impressed because not only did we win, my bill was almost half that of my ex. Please do not read this wrong, Robert is not cheap. My bill was less because he is an amazing attorney who can do more with less. Every dime you spend is a dime well spent. Overall, Robert is an honest and trustworthy professional. He takes time to get to know you and fully invests himself into your case. He works smart and hard and it shows in the results. I will always be among Robert’s biggest fans. I could not have asked for more.

A friend of our family, who is a lawyer, had recommended Robert as the best family lawyer in Fort Bend Co. So, I hired Robert to defend me in a vicious lawsuit brought by my ex-wife years after we had finalized our divorce. My case had some legal complexities other lawyers were afraid to take on. Rob...ert accepted the challenge, and was fair in how he managed my expectations throughout the almost two year defense against an impassioned opponent. The outcome of the case was what we had hoped for, and it was a victory to say the least. Robert is personable and a pleasure to work with even under the most stressful conditions. He is on your side, committed to your best interests. He is strategic and impressively effective.

The inevitable was at hand, I couldn’t ignore it anymore; it was time for a divorce. The issue seemed insurmountable and emotionally overwhelming but, Mr. Franks new exactly what to do. His approach is methodical and well strategized. At any time I felt comfortable discussing all aspects of my ca...se. He let me know I was the boss, it was a pleasure following in his expertise. Make no mistake this lawyer has bite; happy he was on my side! He knew exactly when to apply the pressure to get the job done, efficiently and within budget. I have not hesitated recommending him to my friends and coworkers. Thank you, Robert.

Robert is a very communication oriented attorney. He seems to always care about my family and I personally. Robert has been on a custody journey with me and happens to be the third attorney on my case. He is the best one by far. He cares about people in the real world because divorce and custody can ...be one of, if not the hardest thing to go through in life. He did exactly what I needed him to do in my particular case, even though I made it hard at times. Highly recommended!!
